- The force of the myth!

The most famous cartoon of the past Century, that during several decades nourished the popular imagination - based on mythical roots - acquired a new breadth with the formal entrance to the big screen, after being exhibited on TV series.

A world on the eve of extinction - Krypton - sends to the Earth (a primitive planet) the seminal seed of Jor- El (Marlon Brando in a mesmerizing although very brief role) named Kal-El. Along this journey his father prepared all his enormous knowledge to instruct him about the future that waits for him in his new home.

But as you know the evilness never rests; the perverse mind of Lex Luthor will appear in our planet and the new extragalactic hero will have to face him in order to preserve the peace and order.

As you know the force of myth is an inextinguishable flame!

- A great classic for the entire family
This is a great film that the entire family will enjoy. Unlike Batman it is not very violent, and has a much happier ending (I do love Batman but its not a family film.). I think every one should own this classic.

- Disappointed
This is the first and original Superman movie, included among the Best 1000 movies on DVD by Peter Travers. This Special Edition really has a great sound and better picture with some added extras. But I am disapointed.To begin with, the first 5 minutes of the movie are credits, so booooring, you just want to forward them! If it was not for the excellent music, nobody could stand that. And then, until minute 25, when Superman lands on the Planet Earth, it is soooooooo boring that I just could not take it. C'mon, why is that part so long and boring. Peter Jackson told us much more in 4 minutes at the beginning of LOTR that here. But that is not it! The movie in general is just old fashioned. It did not resist the test of time. For instance, Indiana Jones is 5 stars. Star Wars also. E.T. I love all of them! They still MEAN something today. But I was very disapointed going back to this classic of the Science Fiction. I am sorry but I can't give this movie more than 2 stars and a half (5/10). I understand it is a classic, but the acting, the plot and the visual effects are poor. Some dumb lines from the movie "I'm here to fight for truth, justice, and the American way". And at the end "We're fighting for the same team".

- Best Superman Ever
This movie explains the whole story and Christopher Reeve is the best Superman ever!
