The Movies

A stunner; a solo film on the level of AVENGERS. Character, complexity, commentary.

Edgar Wright delivers pure joy in this creative, inspired film that marries 80's video games, great editing, inspired writing in the most fun way possible.

To this day, I can't picture anyone else as Superman. They made me believe a man can fly.

An incredibly well constructed and well designed piece of work - bringing new realms to life in a competent, engaging storyline.

All the good of RAIDERS and Simon & Kirby. The first hour is golden.

While it doesn't hold up to repeat viewings, it's still the best film version of J. Jonah Jameson ever.

The film gave Hugh Jackman a chance to endear the character to a whole new audience.

A great film in every right way. Faithful, fun, frenetic, fulfilling.

Milius delivers a complete vision for the character and Arnie does deliver in a role meant for him. The film is lifted by a great performance by James Earl Jones and well-realized art direction.

I actually enjoy all the GL Core/ space stuff; it's the Earth couple that hobbles it.

An admirable job in attempting to capture the essence of the character, but the movie is overblown and obvious.

The opening credits were better than the film, and that's not saying much.

How to reduce Wein & Wrightson to formula junk.
