Superman III

Description

Superman III is a 1983 superhero film and the third installment in the Superman film series. The film follows the Man of Steel as he battles a supercomputer that has taken over the world and turns his attention to a megalomaniac businessman who plans to use a weather control machine to hold the world for ransom. Meanwhile, Superman's alter ego, Clark Kent, reunites with high school sweetheart Lana Lang, now a single mother, and must contend with his own inner demons.

The film stars Christopher Reeve as Superman/Clark Kent, alongside Richard Pryor as Gus Gorman, a computer programmer who becomes involved with the film's villains, and Annette O'Toole as Lana Lang. The film was directed by Richard Lester and produced by Pierre Spengler, with a screenplay by David Newman and Leslie Newman. Margot Kidder, who played Lois Lane in the previous films, appears in a reduced role due to conflicts with the film's producers.

Superman III received mixed reviews from critics and was a box office disappointment, earning $80 million against a budget of $39 million. The film's lighter tone and emphasis on humor have been criticized for deviating from the series' serious themes, and Richard Pryor's performance as a comedic sidekick has been particularly divisive. Despite its shortcomings, the film has gained a cult following among fans of the Superman franchise and is often cited as a guilty pleasure.

In a more sophisticated "golden age" when American public schools actually taught people to read, Hollywood made movies from literature—Grapes of Wrath, for example, or To Have and Have Not. According to Oliver Stone, in the 1990s, film became the literature of the age. In 2011, driven by a fetish for "CG integration," Hollywood adopted the comic book as its model of choice. Not "the graphic novel," which has a slightly more elevated ring to it. No. The comic book. "Comic book novices may have difficulty differentiating their Green super-heroes: The Green Lantern does not attract The Green Hornet as moth to flame. Green Lantern may, however, attract almost as many teen girls as teen geeks, because it features Ryan Reynolds, People Magazine's sexiest man, archetype of "obscenely cut" abs. Critics already have remarked and documented strong similarities between Green Lantern and the IronMan series. Given its comic book origins, you know how Green Lantern goes: Cocky gonna-be super-hero must grow into and take responsibility for his super-powers. He becomes part of an inter-galactic super-squadron charged to protect and serve the universe. Of course, hard-rockin' soundtrack and jaw-droppingly attractive women, both good and evil, accompany him wherever he goes. "After summer's spate of cartoon movies, literate viewers may wax nostalgic for Hemingway in collaboration with Bogart and Steinbeck inspiring Henry Fonda.
