Superman Returns

And he didn't even leave a note.

I just saw the movie, Superman Returns. First, let me mention that, as a fan growing up with Christopher Reeves, I thought this updated version was refreshingly excellent. Not better, but certainly up to the challenge. It's hard to find a boy scout in these, the "Otts." If you're looking for a Princess-Bride-like movie that has intelligent, non-animated entertainment value without the overdone action, sex and cursing (not that I mind all of that stuff-- I don't. I'm a big fan of Ah-nold and some of the twisty, gory new thrillers that have emerged in the last few years.), then you've come to the right planet.

It seems so much more amazing when we discover such a gem, like a comedian that makes you laugh without uttering a curse word. Let me repeat: Eddie Murphy, funny as hell. Bill Cosby, funny AND impressive.

Sure we like watching Dennis Rodman, but it's nice to see MJ every once in a while.

Superman, we're glad you're back. Can't wait to see where you'll go next.
