The world?s greatest saviour returns in his blue tights from his home planet Krypton. This time Superman (Brandon Routh) has to stop nemesis Lex Luthor (Kevin Spacey) from destroying mainland America and setting up his own continent. He also has to contend with an upset Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth), now settled with another man and a ?fragile? son.
?Usual Suspects director Bryan Singer brings a fresh flavour to the pages of DC Comics. Together with long-time musical collaborator Jon Ottman, he creates 150 minutes of spellbinding audio-visual extravaganza.
?Brandon Routh gives a new face to the character synonymous with Christopher Reeve. Routh is loveable as the clumsy Clarke Kent while his broad shoulders do justice to the red cape.
?Kate Bosworth is simply adorable as Lois Lane. She lights up every frame she is in and refuses to be overshadowed by the caped crusader.
?Kevin Spacey goes one up on Gene Hackman making Luthor his very own. Using his physicality to the fullest, the Oscar winner gets the best lines and delivers them in a way only he can. A real knockout.
?The never-ending aircraft crisis scene building up to the entry of Superman and the slowburn ending after the climactic blitzkrieg.
Last word: The best Superman film till date; opens up wonderful possibilities of many more to come.
