Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut

Superman II - The Richard Donner Cut
4 stars
Internet fan boy prayers are answered! Here is the best approximation possible - 30 years later - of the way ousted "Superman II" director Richard Donner would have cut the film. Other than a disorienting and rough initial 10 minutes, the work hangs together very well indeed. The "Superman" movie series originated Hollywood's current obsession with comic book characters. Its influence is obvious. There are so many great scenes and also Christopher Reeve is at his chiseled best. Awesome!
