Superman 3 (1983)

I’m gonna be real, I did not like this movie. They leaned too hard into the slapstick humor. The new “villains” are terrible. I did like the inclusion of Lana Lang to change up the Lois Lane love angle. This movie overall just made no sense. There were questionable decisions all around. The whole evil superman thing didn’t work the way it should have. This should have been the Superman equivalent of the symbiote suit spidey and not a drunk Tony Stark. This movie had very little in terms of likeability. Superman is supposed to be light-hearted but this was just cringe slapstick. Superman is a god. He had to defeat 3 people equally as powerful as him in the last movie. This was a huge downgrade.
