Superman: The Movie (1978) (4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray)]]>

Review: The film that made every modern superhero film possible - There's supposedly 8 minutes of footage that Donner reinstated but I didn't notice much difference except in the underground scene where Luthor throws all kinds of traps at Superman (was that 8 minutes long??). Anyhow, this film stands the test of time as one of the greatest superhero films of all time. It's the one that said, "Not only will you like it, you'll like it so much you'll want more."
Review: The Definitive Cinematic Superman! - Richard Donner’s 1978 film, “Superman,” adapted the iconic character by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster for the big screen. The film begins on Krypton, offering a glimpse of Kryptonian society as Jor-El (Marlon Brando) serves on the jury for war criminals General Zod (Terence Stamp), Ursa (Sarah Douglas), and Non (Jack O’Halloran), convicting and sentencing them to eternity in the Phantom Zone. The science counsel warns him not to spread panic based on his findings that the planet is doomed, so he and his wife Lara (Susannah York) instead send their son, Kal-El, to Earth just as the planet explodes. On Earth, Jonathan (Glenn Ford) and Martha Kent (Phyllis Thaxter) raise Kal-El as their son, naming him Clark (Jeff East). Shortly after his father’s death, Clark treks north where a Kryptonian crystal builds his Fortress of Solitude. A holographic recording of Jor-El instructs him for the next few years. Later, Clark (Christopher Reeve) moves to Metropolis and becomes a reporter for the Daily Planet, meeting Lois Lane (Margot Kidder), Jimmy Olsen (Marc McClure), and Perry White (Jackie Cooper). As Superman, he begins helping people and working as an example of the good they can do in the world. Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman), a self-described criminal mastermind, works with Otis (Ned Beatty) and Miss Teschmacher (Valerie Perrine) to plan a nuclear attack on the San Andreas fault in order to separate California from the mainland U.S. to turn worthless desert property into valuable coastal real estate. Superman must stop Lex’s plan and rescue Lois Lane. Donner’s film remains one of the most iconic works of cinema and is still a delight over 40 years later. He brilliantly tells the most important parts of Superman’s story, introduces memorable characters, balances science fiction, romance, and comedy, and set up the story for “Superman II” (which he departed over production disagreements and was finished by Richard Lester). The cast is simply amazing, with each actor perfectly suited to their roles. Hackman’s Lex Luthor is a bit campy compared to the calculating businessman that appears in comics now, but viewers can’t help but to enjoy him since he’s having so much fun. Reeve, however, remains the definitive cinematic Superman and balances the differences between Clark Kent and the Last Son of Krypton in such a way that the viewer can understand how such a secret identity would work. He captures Superman’s core goodness in a way that never feels forced and that speaks to the importance of the character in fiction. This film appeared on the character’s 40th anniversary and is still one of the best comic book movies 40 years later!
