...(where from..the shops?)
Well saw this flick with some friends on friday night at the Jam Factory..yes he is very hot dear Brandon Routh...(and what he does to the Supersuit is no ones business)...but LONG LONG movie - what is with the Studio approving a 2 and a half hour pic which should have been reduced EASILY to 2 hours or less!!!
And the crazy thing was there was no lead up to him becoming superman - just that he was missing for 5 years...HATED the embellished love story with Lois Lane which seemed to dominate the film - forgive me for being so bold Miss Babs - but he's a Action Super Hero from Krypton - not Romeo from fair Verona...After 'Batman Begins' which completely changed the 'Super Hero' film genre I thought we could expect the same from Superman but alas no...
However not all negative as there was some great acting from all involved - Old Hollywood Star 'Eva Marie Saint' (remember Hitchcock's 'North by Northwest') plays Supermans Mother...Kevin Spacey ('The usual suspects'...& the list is numerous) as Lex Luther, Parker Posey - one of my all time favourite Actors (Best in Show, Wating for Guffman etc) - plays Lex's mole 'Kitty' but doesn't steal the scene like she normally does...and even Ian 'the only gay in the village rugby team' Roberts plays a cameo one of Lex's henchmen - thank god he only has the one line as we wouldn't want to strain his vocal cords...
Overall - only 2 choc Tops out of five - one for Brandon and one for the effects - re: ocean scenes - So wait for the DVD...
