Description:
After Superman: The Movie's epic storytelling and Superman II's awesome battles, how could the first two hits be topped? In Superman III, meet Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor), a half-witted computer programming natural. For him a keyboard is a weapon - and Superman faces the microelectronic menace of his life. Christopher Reeve reprises his most beloved role, deepening his character's human side as Clark Kent reunites with old flame Lana Lang (Annette O'Toole) at a Smallville High class reunion. And when Superman becomes his own worst enemy after Kryptonite exposure, Reeve pulls off both roles with dazzling skill. Incredible visual effects abound - but above all it has heart, heroism and high-flying humor. All in superabundance.

This is Superman III, the third entry in the franchise, and probably the silliest. August ''Gus'' Gorman (Richard Pryor) was looking for a job and found one at a computer company run by a corrupt millionaire Ross Webster (Robert Vaughn), his younger sister Vera (Annie Ross), and girlfriend Lorelei Ambrosia (Pamela Stephenson). Meanwhile, Clark Kent (Christopher Reeve) convinces Perry White (Jackie Cooper) to let him attend his High School Reunion in Smallville, while Lois (Margot Kidder) goes on ... Read More

Producers destroy Superman film series with large amounts of cheese!
I got the Deluxe Edition. I enjoy the extras like the deleted scenes, and the commentary by the ever funny Ilya Salkind & P. Spengler. There is just something I like about Ilya Salkind, I don't know what it is.
The duality struggle of Superman was the only concept in this entire movie that has any real major motion picture value. The ... Read More

I guess I am in the minority on this, but I honestly think this 3rd chapter was the best of the 4.
Very quickly, we meet Richard Pryor who is a down on his luck man who can not hold a job. But he finally finds a spot as a computer programmer, where he accidentally uncovers his hidden talents. He is willing to play a few 'cheat games' with the computers for a bit of financial gain. (So the hint of the developing villain is there. BUT, on the other hand, he does NOT want anyone to really ... Read More

Despite the directorial struggles that plagued the simultaneous shooting of Superman I and II (Richard Donner being ousted in favor of Richard Lester), the films did very well financially, prompting a third effort. However, instead of the epic feel and formula of the first two films, this one falls completely flat for numerous reasons:
-First, the direction of Lester. After watching this film, I am now convinced that Richard Donner really was the mastermind behind the success of the Superman ... Read More

Everyone says this is the worst of the Chris Reeve films, and I disagree. People constantly whine, and cry that there is too much comedy in it. That may be true, but there is another major plot element that no one seems to remember, and that is Superman's disturbing degeneration into a dark, angry, malicious, and embittered soul, as the result of a near fatal encounter with synthetic kryptonite. Seeing the once selfless superhero lapse into a vicious, drunken SOB, walking around with a two day beard, and a ... Read More
