Superman (1978)

This movie was the first true superhero blockbuster. The first part of the movie, while important, dragged a bit. Once we get to adulthood, the movie really takes off. Christopher Reeve played a clumsy reporter beautifully and the clumsiness is still there a little even when he is the confident Superman. The only obvious issue is the lack of physics, even for a superhero movie. Other than that, it was a great movie and deserves the love it gets. But seriously, do you even physics, bro?
