Rankings:

Superhero Moment

Rated 4 out of 5

Superman saving the plane from falling. One of the first times we really see him struggling against something larger than himself. Great physics of the plane wings tearing off too.

Casting

Rated 3 out of 5

No one will ever live up to Christopher Reeve, but Brandon Routh is close.

Costume

Rated 2 out of 5

Don’t really care for the toned down red, or the leather-y cape.

Theme Song

Rated 4 out of 5

Johns Williams is back!!
