Superman Returns spoilers...
I really loved the film. It was a bit longer than I thought it was going to be though...
I thought Superman and Clark were perfect. I liked seeing him run and enjoy his powers when young. But why did he wear glasses at that age? To prepare for a future life as a superhero???
Loved Lois. I know some people thought she was too soft, but other than the faint, I really liked her. I did think the "how many f's in catastrophe" was lame though. Even if someone thinks that word has a f in it, why would there be two f's??? And I wasn't sure what time it was set in, but there were mobile phones and computers, so presumedly spell-check?
Richard was so sweet. I loved him. It was really nice that they had a character like that to show the best the humanity had to offer. I still hope the sequel has Superman and Lois romance though :D
As for Lex, I thought there was a tendency to go a bit over the top/campy at times, but mostly I liked him. His scene with Lois was pretty good. It's a shame we only got confrontation scene with Superman though. I thought Lex being so sadistic there was interesting, but overall I would have preferred a more cool and calculating Lex.
I didn't like when Lois turned the plane around to save Superman, she should really have gotten her son to safety first. But oh well.
And I know Smallville and SR conferred, so I don't know if there were deliberate references to Smallville, but I noticed Lex referring to mythology just like our Lex does, and Lois saying that Superman never lies, which I took as a sort of wink at Smallville's Clark. Oh and I suppose that Jonathon was killed in season 5, to fit in with the film
Overall I really loved it, and Clark/Superman were my favourites :) I missed the tribute to Christopher Reeves though, I thought there would be one included in the end credits?

Gah, empty two dimensional excuse for a Lois.

Ooh and Peta Wilson was in the first bit!

I didn't even notice how long the movie was. I was pretty engrossed. I thought Brandon did an excellent job, both as Clark and as Superman. I felt more of an emotional connection with him than I did in the other movies.
My sister warned me not to watch SV before seeing the movie. But I didn't listen. And for the most part it didn't affect my enjoyment. But I found myself really missing Michael's Lex throughout most of the movie. He is far more compelling and complex to me.
Hopefully in the sequels we'll get to see more interaction between Clark and Lois. I missed that.

Yeah, well you liked Tess. :P ;)
