My bad man, I just found out that I posted my thoughts of it on a football forum. Now the question is, where the hell is the page I'd written about Jim Haslett and Sean Payton?
Superman Returns
Routh and Spacey did very well, but as a whole, I'd say the acting was just decent. Bosworth was a little bland, Posey was utterly annoying(she did have one or two funny lines..not clever funny, can someone actually be that stupid funny...and for the part she was playing...which was basically Miss. Teschmacher from the first two films...I guess she did ok but imo it was over done and made it more annoying than funny which I think it was meant to be.), everybody else was just on par, no more or less.
I thought the story was extremely well done. It had the proper length to thoroughly go through both the drama between Superman and Lois and the action of Luthor's plan coming together(which is very cleverly)and Superman's attempt to foil it.
So all around you've got a good story which plays out very well over the 3 hours(Which imo wasn't too long, if you wanna be technical, I guess they coulda shaved a minute or two off here and there but there's no entire scene or noticeable block of time they should've cut.), excellent directing and special effects. There's also something pretty interesting tossed into the well written script.
Overall could've been anywhere within a 8.5 and a perfect 10, but as I said before, the acting outside of Routh and Spacey is only decent, not bad by any means but only decent. So I'll put it just outside that realm with a...
8.4/10
