---------------------------------------------------------------
This is a beautiful film that captures the essence of the originals and is dedicated to the memory of Christopher Reeve and Director Bryan Singer proves he knows exactly how to continue a remarkable story and give it his own flare.
Brandon Routh is simply wonderful in his portrayal and effortlessly steps into his predecessor’s shoes bringing humour to Clark and warmth and sincerity to Superman.
My two favourite scenes are the most subtle, firstly as Superman hears the people's need as he floats above the atmosphere and secondly as he flies Lois up gently reminding her of the Earth's need for a saviour.
Kate Bosworth gives my favourite performance of Lois to date and gives her passion, intelligence and strength. I also really like James Marsden as Richard and Tristan Jake Leabu as Jason and both give lovely performances.
Eva Marie Saint is charming in her role as Clark's Mother and Frank Langella is great as Perry. It's also wonderful hearing the speeches by Marlon Brando's Jor-El inserted into this film which is a lovely touch.
Kevin Spacey is absolute evil perfection as Lex and brings even more ruthlessness to him and Parker Posey makes Kitty humorous as she tries to be loyal. It has some impressive action scenes throughout and I especially love all the scenes on the Lex's yacht.
This movie brings Superman back for new generations to enjoy and proves that this superhero is still a wonderful part of our culture.
Crafted with pure love and respect this is truly magical!
