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.

Captain America: The First Avenger will not be just another one of those "ripped from the comics" movies that have become a 2011 Hollywood staple. No way. "Captain America himself looks remarkably fit for a super-hero who celebrated his seventieth birthday in 2011, and his box office prospects are remarkably sanguine, too. For all those years, Captain America consistently has ranked well-up the list of popular comic characters. Maybe not the sexiest man alive, but a perpetual contender, and always the consummate patriot. Therefore, producers, writers, directors, actors, cinematographers, all the grips, and even the craft services crew understand they have their hands full as they make Captain America: The First Avenger. Their main character is, after all, revered as the United States' bravest, noblest, most-selfless, and greatest hundred-and-one percent hero…ever. "Captain America: The First Avenger tells the story from the beginning. Our hero, Steve Rogers, is rejected for service in World War II—very highly motivated but sadly unfit physically. Determined to serve, Rogers volunteers for "Project: Rebirth," a super-secret project that gives him the ultimate make-over, making him a super-soldier. The brass dub him "Captain America" upon his completion of training. Teaming-up with intrepid sidekick Bucky Barnes, "The First Avenger" kicks some serious Nazi butt as he fights "Red Skull," director of advanced weaponry for the Reich. Well-funded, well cast, well-scripted, Captain America: The First Avenger promises to kick some serious box office butt in the summer of 2011, putting all those other comic movies to shame.
