If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Firing Richard Donner was one of the dumbest things the Salkinds could do. Fleischer does a workman like job, but this has none of the pizzazz of the first film and some of the dumbest ideas, only overtaken by Shumachers ruination of Batman. The super kiss, the silly cellophane symbol, all take away from what should have been a superior sequel. The only thing that shines is Chris Reeves as Superman.

Superman II is the sequel to Superman the Movie which is great, it is unfortunately .very lower than the first movie , more is not a bad movie . far from it is a funny movie while in Superman the movie the story was very well presented and had almost no action in this movie already has more action, the film's villain is Zod , the special effects are good , the soundtrack is sensational like the first film , the final scene of Superman vs Zod fight is good , the cast is good, Christopher Reeve is great as the first , Superman II is not better than the first , more is far superior to his Superman III successors , IIII and Returns. Note 6.5

Superman II is bigger in everything but that doesn't mean that is better than the first film. What bagged me the most about the film is the humor which it was kinda weak at times and this whole thing of Superman sacrificing his powers in order to be with Lois Lane what the hell was that? Sure Clark deserves a little bit happiness in his life but getting his ass kicked by a mortal was kinda stupid. Also the 3 villains could be better if they didn't acted as cartoons of themselves i think Man of Steel gave Zod a much better story. Gene Hackman reprises his role as Lex Luthor but he doesn't have enough screen time. What i loved about the first film was that it was serious but also the humor was great in it and Richard Donner was all by himself in directing and not Richard Lester and him teaming up. Christopher Reeve remains a badass and an amazing Superman/ Clark Kent tho as always. I give the film a 9 out of 10 it's basically the Batman Returns of the Superman Series it's entertaining but not better than the first movie.

I'm glad this movie is actually good, although I would have liked it if Richard Donner had stayed on for this. That's why Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut is better than this. Positives: Christopher Reeve is Awesome, General Zod is a great villain, Terence Stamp nails it, and this movie has 3 PEOPLE TO FIGHT SUPERMAN. Negatives however: It's a teeny bit more campy, it's trying to be MORE like a comic book than the first one, and Richard Lester and the Salkinds Booted Donner off of the set. For the most part though, I like it. I'm gonna give Superman II a B. 7/10. 3.5/5, etc. If you loved the first movie like I did, you'll have less fun with this, but fun nonetheless. Go break a leg with Superman II.
