Title: A MAJOR disappointment!
Product review: After seeing the first two Superman movies (which were both really great), and then watching this one, you'll be surprised at how much the greatness and quality of Superman has dropped. Christopher Reeve does a good job as Superman (as always), but that's the highest point of this movie. Why did they take Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor away and replace him with a pair of mediocre so-called "villains"? And why, oh why did they focus the movie so much on comedian Richard Pryor, who does such a bad job as a computer whiz? The script is bad (no, terrible), the special effects are bad, and the final battle between Superman and Pryor's Super Computer has "stupid" and "boring" written all over it! The film relies far too much on comedy relief. Yes, the fantastic Superman theme is there, but who cares?! This is one, put in my Movie Guide terms, big turkey! But if you're a Superman fan, like I am, then you might want to watch it, just because it's Superman and all.
