Superman II
Not as good as Superman, but not as bad as the other two sequels. The problems mostly lie in the switch of directors and politics behind the scenes.
Popcorn Entertainment
Superman
Superman helped usher in an era in which sci-fi and fantasy were treated with some respect in Hollywood and by ticket buyers.
The Vast of Night
Taking a well-worn genre formula and avoiding its cliches, The Vast of Night is an old-fashioned triumph of form while remaining fun and engaging throughout.
Armageddon
It is certainly not something a fact checker or film snob would cherish, but for a straight up action film it works all right.
War of the Worlds
Much of the film is high energy fluff, but its family dynamics and stellar performances elevate it above a simple visual spectacle.
The Matrix Reloaded
Though it falters in several unfortunate ways, Reloaded is a worthy follow-up and serves its purpose of expanding the universe of The Matrix very well.
