Superman
So you know how sometimes you don't really like a movie, but then you keep having to explain why you don't like it, and the need to justify yourself makes your negative feelings towards the movie increase tenfold....
Well, Superman = LONGEST. MOVIE. EVER.
It was 2.5 hours long. It is not that the movie had no redeeming qualities. Some of the shots were really cool. But anything that has only cool shots should not be longer than 90 minutes. As for the rest, the plot was painfully boring, and there was no chemistry between the actors. But really, the problem is that i don't like Superman.
I mean it is not that I would not like Superman if he existed in real life. I would totally think that the world needs Superman. And I like truth, justice, and the american way as much as the next person. But, for some reason, in this more than even any other superhero, you just know that everything will work out. Superman will never die or turn bad. And so the movie is really boring, cause even as bad things were happening, I was just waiting for things to turn ok again.
