Superman IV: The Quest for Peace

Description

"Superman IV: The Quest for Peace" is a 1987 superhero film directed by Sidney J. Furie and starring Christopher Reeve as Superman. It is the fourth and final film in the original Superman film series, and follows Superman as he attempts to rid the world of nuclear weapons and prevent a global catastrophe. The film also stars Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor, Margot Kidder as Lois Lane, and Jon Cryer as Lenny Luthor.

The film received overwhelmingly negative reviews from critics and audiences alike, who criticized the film's poor special effects, weak script, and lack of originality. It was also a box office failure, grossing only $15.6 million against a budget of $17 million. The negative reception of "Superman IV: The Quest for Peace" effectively ended the original Superman film series, and the character would not appear in another live-action film until "Superman Returns" in 2006.

Despite its poor reception, "Superman IV: The Quest for Peace" has since gained a cult following among fans of the character and the film series. Some have praised its message of peace and nuclear disarmament, while others appreciate its campy, B-movie charm. However, the film is still generally regarded as a low point in the Superman film franchise and a cautionary tale for filmmakers looking to adapt comic book characters to the big screen.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.

Could you imagine that Oz: The Great and Powerful, which is loosely based in L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was planned to be filmed by Disney since 1937? The rights for this movie was sold and resold for many times before, finally, Walt Disney Production acquired them and signed a contract with Sam Raimi to direct the film. Disney's series of decisions to reduce the filming costs had lead to unsuccessful negotiations with Robert Downey, Jr. and Johnny Depp for the leading role of Oscar Diggs/Oz, till, finally, James Franco was chosen for the role. You may remember him as Will Rodman form Rise of the Planet of the Apes. As the movie is the prequel for the core story The Wizard of Oz, there are no lovely Dorothy Gale, instead we have three witches. The Wicked Witch of the West, Theodora is portrayed by Mila Kunis which recently has had leading roles in Hell & Back and Friends with Benefits). Evanora The Wicked Witch of the East and the Ruler of the Munchkin Country is played by Rachel Weisz (The Bourne Legacy, To the Wonder); she inferiors in power of magic with Glinda the Good Witch of the South which is most powerful sorceress of Oz and is the ruler of the Quadling Country. In Disney's version of Oz: The Great and Powerful, Glinda is portrayed by Michelle Williams, which was quite smart decision, taking in consideration the amazing performance of Michelle Williams in My Week with Marilyn as Marilyn Monroe.
