I enjoyed Man of Steel (7/10) and Superman: The Movie (7/10) and even Superman Returns (6/10) but this is easily the best! Even though sometimes the humour is too slapstick and the movie can be a bit cartoonish, I had a great time watching it and I honestly thought the battle in Metropolis at the end looked fantastic for the most part (even today). This was a flawed movie, but an entertaining and fantastic one featuring an iconic villain (KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!).
9/10
In the next life you will be my sworn enemy. And I will show you no mercy. -

I prefer Man of Steel but this film was better than the original. I've always been susrprsied that the scores are the opposite way around.
I agree.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT SUPERMAN 2 WAS RATED HIGHER BEFORE I SAW THE OTHER SCORES.The scores surprised me when i first saw them a few years ago.
I guest some folks do not like action that much after all and just like romance and comedy to a large extent,of course superman the movie was serious at times too. -

This is my favorite of all the Supermans as well. I also agree that the first Superman (1978) was better, in terms of top-to-bottom production. And I also think that seeing the first one before Superman II, makes the sequel more enjoyable. You already understand the characters/personalities of the main characters, so there is more room for action.

Superman II (original theatrical release version) is the best superhero movie I've ever seen.
Skip the Donner cut. It's every bit as bad as the "Star Wars: Special Edition."
Watch Richard Lester's original theatrical release version instead!

In some ways, probably because I'm just old enough to have seen it in the cinema, I'd like to call it the best superhero movie ever, but yeah probably my favorite Superman movie. I love some of the newer Marvel franchise like Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy, but at some point it's nice to go back before superheros became mostly CGI and appreciate the 80s-era treatment. In this case a really good storyline with some classic moments, Christopher Reeve's awesomeness, and entertaining villains. Kneel before General Zod!

I TOTALLY agree with you. This and Superman from 1978 were way ahead of their time and the two are the BEST Superman movies of all time.

Man of Steel is my favorite but I agree that this is a really nice film I didn't expect it because it was lower than the first one (which I also liked very much) here on imdb. I gave them both an 8/10, which is high but well deserved, MOS though is a 10/10 for me.
Another thing unexpected was that I absolutely adored Christopher Reeve's version, and that's because everyone said that Cavill is totally different and I really loved his version, so I thought that I would dislike this one. Boy was I wrong.
Should I give part III and IV a chance btw? everyone says they're kinda bad. -

I wasn't planning on watching them anyway, but thank you for saving me from a potential disappointment. DC hasn't really let me down with both their old and their new movies I've watched, not only because it gives us mostly masterpieces but because I dodge the few flops too.
