Well, just got back from the movie, and although you guys have probably seen it, I have to say I was pretty impressed. It was a bit too long for me - I almost fell asleep TWICE (long trip just to see it - 1.5 hours to see a movie is a bit much, but what can ya do, right?) Other than that, I had no complaints about it whatsoever.
I really liked that they used the original music score and that they made the guy that played Superman look a lot like Christopher Reeves...helped ease the transition a bit, I think. Not much for the Lois Lane character, for some reason. The girl was good looking, and she did a decent job, but I just didn't buy into her part. I don't know, must just be me.
Anyway, I'm not going to give away any of the story for those of you who haven't seen it yet, but I really enjoyed the story and the opening left for a spinoff or another sequel.
I wish we could have popped over and seen The Pirates of the Carribean, but I spent nearly 50.00 just to get in and get snacks for my family, and the next one would have killed me! I saw a "making of" TPOC and it looks ok.
Tl:dr? Superman - 8 out of 10 on the Vike-o-meter....
