Superman Returns



  



I saw Superman Returns last night at the theatres. It was much like the first 2 Superman movies made back in the 80's but with more black humour a few twists added and lots of comic book action fun. Definitely worth checking out if you have the chance to see it. 4/5 Stars. It also had a lot of comic book style action ... I won't give it all away though.
