SUPERMAN II - THE RICHARD DONNER CUT

Special Features: New DCP

Richard Donner’s 2006 cut of SUPERMAN II, an exemplary sequel and touchstone of superhero cinema, can now be enjoyed on the big screen. A freak mishap allows three Kryptonian criminals to escape from their imprisonment in the Phantom Zone and journey to Earth, where, in the yellow rays of the sun, they have the same powers as Superman (Christopher Reeve). What a bad time for the Man of Steel to consider retirement — and abandoning his powers — in order to marry Lois Lane (Margot Kidder). Terence Stamp gives a memorably aloof performance as the coolly sociopathic General Zod, with Reeve, Kidder and Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor reprising their roles from the 1978 film. DIR Richard Donner; SCR Mario Puzo, David Newman, Leslie Newman; PROD Pierre Spengler. U.S., 1980/2006, color, 116 min. RATED PG
