Jeff Spry is an award-winning screenwriter and veteran freelance journalist covering TV, movies, video games, books, and comics. His work has appeared at SYFY Wire, Inverse, Collider, Bleeding Cool and elsewhere.
Jam packed issues filled with the latest cutting-edge research, technology and theories delivered in an entertaining and visually stunning way, aiming to educate and inspire readers of all ages feature film starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, Rachel Brosnahan as his sweetheart reporter Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as the nefarious ultra-genius Lex Luthor is close to finishing a production shoot that began this past February in anticipation of a high-flying release in summer of 2025.
It's mildly amusing to see Gene Hackman once more as the diabolical Lex Luthor creating an atomic-powered clone of the Man of Steel named Nuclear Man and see the wacky action that ensues. Reeve, ever the consummate professional, hands in a respectable performance nearly a decade after first donning the traditional blue and red costume. Not even the re-emergence of Margot Kidder's Lois Lane can resurrect the magic and save this rehashed stinker from ridicule.
Newcomer Brandon Routh does his best with the mediocre screenplay that revolves around Kevin Spacey's Lex Luthor employing stolen Kryptonian crystals to spawn a new continent. We dare you to try watching this resurrected Superman offering and not nod off at some point during its 154-minute runtime. Singer never truly finds a handle on the heart of the film and its glacial pacing and insistent concentration on character issues over superhero action eventually become insurmountable.
The storyline centers on the trio of Kryptonian criminals , sentenced to imprisonment by Jor-El in the Phantom Zone seen in the first Superman feature, who are accidentally freed by a nuclear explosion in space. Of course, they head straight for planet Earth to seek revenge on Jor-El's banishment and bring his son Kal-El/Superman to his knees.
Amy Adams Lois Lane is a bit"vanilla" in many scenes and her chemistry with Clark/Superman never really catches fire, but it's a minor complaint in a rousing production that even adds a grunge rock anthem from Soundgarden! Yes, Kevin Costner's Pa Kent sacrificing his life to save Clark's identity during a tornado still makes little sense, but as the '80s metal band"Poison" sang,"Every rose has its thorn.
And the fantastic music is timeless! Academy Award-winning composer John Williams followed up his old-fashioned Star Wars score of the previous year with this majestic musical miracle that soars like the caped title character.
