Superman Returns
Written by Dan Franklin

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, its your Dad cheating on your
fat mum again.
Superman Returns. Took him a while, eh? And the wheelchair
is no excuse, son.
I jest, of course. It’s a new Superman, played by a new
actor innit! And praise be, he even looks a bit like The
Reeve! And Kevin Spacey is in it! And the fit bird who looks
a bit like Natalie Portman if you squint your eyes, but not
much, who’s name no cunt ever remembers! Quids in, boys.
But is it any cop?
Yes, it fucking is. And then some.
It’s easily the finest film released so far this summer, and
is so thrilling at points that you’ll be leaving the cinema
with panties wetter than Christmas. I did. (I didn’t. I
downloaded it, like a tramp. But I would’ve if I had two
50p’s to rub together, so I think you’ll find it still
counts).
The performances are class, the story strong if not a huge
leap from previous red-caped campy capers (try saying
that after 22 ports), and the action-sequences (of which
there are many) are superbly executed and look orgasmic.
I could go on, but why? You know the character, you know
Spacey goes with sailors, so why harp on FFS? Plus I got 8
pizzas in the oven.
It’s great. Get oot and cunting see it.
