Routh is Superman. Film is very disjointed and disappointing. There was now growth in this film from beginning to the end. It just seemed like it was a just put together without any care for a flowing feel. If it was flowing then I might not have noticed the things below.
1. Superman hates Kryptonite. Yet he seems to be able to lift an whole island of the stuff up. Where as a few moments before he couldn't even stand up on it. So how are they going to make a competent sequel, when they have botched this one up by making him invulnerable to Kryptonite.
2. This film should have been called Lois Lane's Relationship Advice, the amount of time she's wasting on screen talking about her feelings for Superman and her current boyfriend.
3. Even the director was making excuses by saying this was a loosely based sequel, before it was even released.
They have been working a long time to get a suitable script, and this is what they come up with!
Routh is a very good Superman though.
Could and should have been much better.
