Great set with a great set of extras granted superman 3 and 4 are tripe but the rest on this set are good movies. The best is Superman the movie with Superman 2 The Richard Donner Cut being close behind which is a better movie than the theatrical granted theres parts what dont fit in right with the rest of the movie as in the usage of screen test footage which sticks out rather noticabley but the reinserting of Marlon Brando makes up for this it was a crime his scenes were left out in the 1st place as was the firing of Richard Donner after completing 70% of the movie. So this cut of the movie is a taste of what coulve been. Then theres Superman returns, i do like this movie and as a homage to the 1st movie it works theres just a few things i dislike, the casting of Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane for one as she is too young to play this part and some of the movie is to idenitical to situations that happen in the 1st movie and the ending is a little anti climaxy but overall the film does have heart and you can tell that Bryan Singer does have respect for the character im just hoping we will see the directors cut of this movie sometime in the future as there was a whole return to Krypton scene shot but never seen it doesnt even appear in the deleted scenes on the Superman Returns bonus disc. So overall this is a great set with just 2 bad eggs but can be watched in comparrison to Donners and Singers take on the character to see how it should be done. Heres hoping we see Superman: Man Of Steel in cinemas in the next few years and hope its done with the same conviction as Donner and Singer have shown the character.Read full review
Totally fantastic box set. Includes the brilliant Richard Donner cut of Superman II, which brings Marlon Brando back and which is much better than the film directed by Mark Lester, who should've stayed an orphan in 'Oliver' because he can't direct his way out of a bowl of Gruel. Absolutely hours of special features too!!! Well worth watching for the bits that were saved from the cutting room floor. Plus tons of deleted and alternate scenes from all the Superman Movies. 10 out of 10
This is a great 13 disc set with all 5 Superman films, plus 2 expanded versions of Superman 1 and 2. It also has the history of Superman from comic to tv to film.
Excellent boxset with extras beyond the call of duty.Of particular interest the Richard Donner cut of Superman 2.As is always the way the quality of the films weaken the more sequels there are,but still a fascinating boxset none the less.
