_**”Miss Teschmacher!”**_

I didn’t catch “Superman” (1978) until over 25 years after its release. It’s a great superhero flick with a lot of wit, well worthy of its reputation. Although a couple of things are understandably dated, like the flying sequences and Clark Kent’s glasses (which are so BAD they’re laughable), the movie definitely stands the test of time despite being shot in 1977.

“Superman” may be a comic-booky superhero flick, but it’s also a powerful piece of SCI-FI cinema. The outstanding Krypton sequences of the first half hour confirm this. These scenes are highlighted by the magnificence of Marlon Brando playing Superman’s father Jor-El. So, if you’re a serious Sci-Fi fan, don’t skip “Superman” just because you assume it’s some mere superhero flick. No, it’s more, much more. The screenplay seems to have been written with little concern of cost so many are the great F/X sequences.

Speaking of Brando, you can’t beat the cast, starting with newbie Christopher Reeve knocking it out of the ballpark in the starring role.

I’d like to point something out that is hardly ever mentioned: Lex Luthor’s girlfriend, Miss Teschmacher, played by Valerie Perrine, is jaw-droppingly voluptuous! Watch out for the pool scene where Ms. Perrine is wearing a green one-piece bathing suit.

The film is a little long at 2 hours, 23 minutes, but it doesn’t overstay its welcome.

GRADE: A

Review By: Wuchak

Man of Steel – Film Full of Love

The planet Krypton is doomed, all life there is soon to be over. Jor-El, knowing that the planet Earth has the same atmosphere, rockets his baby son there post haste. On Earth, the infant grows up to find that he has super human powers that must be hidden from the ordinary Earthlings, he hides away as mild mannered reporter Clark Kent and transforms into Superman whenever evil and wrong doing needs taking care of.

I would think most people have either seen Superman:The Movie, or at the least heard everything about it. It’s one of those films that sticks out in cinema history as a defining point, and some like me would say a high point as well. I recently revisited the film for the first time in about 5 years and had such a wonderful time with it, the moment John Williams exhilarating score kicks in a get goosebumps and start to believe a man can really can fly.

The expectation level on release of the film in 1978 was enormous, one can not understate the hugely iconic love that the DC Comic character of Superman had. A worldwide search for the right actor to don the red and blue cape was underway, Clint Eastwood, Burt Reynolds, Ryan O’Neal, Nick Nolte and Charles Bronson were all at times linked with the hot role, whilst James Caan and Robert Redford are confirmed to have passed after being offered the job. All of those great names now seem remarkably stupid choices, and that is purely down to the man that did take on the gargantuan role that was bursting at the seams with expectation. That Superman:The Movie worked (and still does with each passing decade) is down to the wonderful efforts of Christopher Reeve.

Reeve positively nailed both sides of the character, making it his own, he is all muscles and square jaw in the cape and then showing wonderful comic ability as the bumblingly frustrating Clark Kent. Sure the supporting cast all contribute grandly, but Reeve carries the picture and lifts it to triumphant heights. Gene Hackman has the time of his life camping it up as super villain Lex Luthor, Ned Beatty & Valerie Perrine flesh out Luthor’s cohorts with comedy and sexiness respectively, whilst Margot Kidder is a pure joy as core character of the piece, Lois Lane. Asked to play a love interest but a fiercely strong woman at the same time, Kidder breezes through it and radiates a beauty that couples nicely with Reeve’s broadness. Marlon Brando was paid $4 Million for what is little more than a prologue walk on part, but the big name he brought to the party ensured the paying customer went through the doors in droves, but on leaving the cinema it was Reeve’s name that most were talking about.

Full of outlandish sequences and cheeky comic book ideals, Superman is lasting the test of time as an endearing classic of the genre, it may have been surpassed by quite a few of the more modern exploits by Spiders and Bats, but it was once the Daddy of them all. From x-ray eyes to catching bullets, to pushing nuclear missiles into space and wooing Lois in the sky, Superman:The Movie is a special treat, and oh how I love you so. 9/10

Christopher Reeve RIP.

Review By: John Chard
And then, Christopher Reeve became even more of a superhero in real life.
Obviously, everyone knows Superman, so I’ll talk about a few aspects. It was sort of a shock to everyone when Christopher Reeve got paralyzed, seeing as to how we associated him with the man of steel. But his tireless crusade for people with spinal cord injuries showed him to be a sort of superhero in his own right.

As Superman’s father Jor-El, Marlon Brando seems subdued, but still shows why he was one of the greatest actors of all time (as it was, he and Reeve died within four months of each other). As villain Lex Luthor, Gene Hackman makes a really interesting character: vile, but kinda cool, he’s the bad guy who we all want to be deep down. Margot Kidder also has a great role as the title character’s self-standing hubby Lois Lane, and Ned Beatty is really funny as Luthor’s goofy sidekick Otis. Also starring is Marc McClure as Jimmy Olson.

I remember a “Saturday Night Live” episode where they imagine what would have happened had Superman been raised in Germany: they conclude that the man of steel – played by Dan Aykroyd in that skit – would have joined the Nazis and been called Ubermann. As it was, Friedrich Nietzsche theorized an “Ubermensch”.

All in all, “Superman” is an inimitable superhero flick. I agree with a previous reviewer that “Batman” and “Spiderman” owe a lot to this movie. Truly great.
