Superman III Commentary

Both Soulless Minions return once again to the Superman universe for a look at the 1983 film Superman III. The fllm was directed by Richard Lester who is a fine director in his own right--but was he a good fit for Superman? Most seem to agree that he wasn't. But not all in Supes III is at a loss. Most of it's comedy is over the top and misplaced but if removed from the other films in the saga it really isn't a bad film at all. It's just the wrong tone. With this approach we found that most of the performances are top notch and there are some genuinely funny moments not just from Pryor but from others as well.
