Astronomers discover Krypton

Actually, I thought it sucked.

It could have premeired on ABC or something and have been the movie of the week...but a summer block-buster it is not.

I won't state why by giving away spoilers but where was the big showdown?

No, I saw it in the theatre in the US in early July when it premeired here.

I went in with high hopes.  Left unfulfilled.  The plot wasn't that good.  People just accept Clark Kent's return and coincidentally so is Superman...hmmm... no one questioned it.

Sometimes he's weakened and sometimes not.

Should I go into the big useless, boring 3-on-1 fight scene?

The highlight of the film involved someone getting hit with a piano.

I think Superman IV:The Quest For Peace was more interesting.  Or even the Star Trek movie where they have to save the whales.

Christopher Reeves pulled off Clark Kent perfectly.  I see no difference between Superman and Clark Kent in this film.

Good catch about discovering Krypton.  Atleast on Smallville, they got it right.

For scientists to discover Krypton, his ship and the remnants of Krypton would have had to travel faster than the speed of light when it blew up, which it obviously did't since it took him 6 years to go and come back.

It would have been better if they had a better plot and just picked up where they left off as if he never left to begin with.
