I doubt we'll ever have a better cast Superman.
No matter what body you put his head on it just works!
It's frustrating that Superman Returns was such a snooze fest overall. There was moments of brilliance in it and it's not a bad film..it's just boring - low on action and it is literally too quiet for long periods. The child was probably a bad idea too but otherwise I liked its premise of using the Reeve films as its backstory and thus it being a continuation of Reeve's Superman. I so wish it had been a better film and had gotten a sequel, then maybe been the basis of a shared universe.
Having said that I think Cavill looks more the part than Routh did. Alas Cavill was probably too young back then.
Sigh. We just can't win.
Agreed. So much was right about that, but it did miss the mark. I'll still take it 100 times out of 100 over Man of Steel, Batman V. Superman, Justice League, etc.It's frustrating that Superman Returns was such a snooze fest overall.
