Tonight we watched Superman Returns. I was not expecting much from a sequel like this, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Brandon Routh’s portrayal of Superman himself was probably not as good as Christopher Reeve’s original, but just about ever other character had a much better actor choice. Kate Bosworth was a fantastic Lois Lane and Kevin Spacey is an amazingly good choice for Lex Luthor.
I’d give it a 3.5 out of 5 stars.
On Saturday we watched the movie Holes. A surprisingly good film from Disney, Holes is about a teenage boy who is wrongly accused of a crime and is sent to a juvenile work camp instead of prison. The camp is run by some shady characters and then the plot explores from there.
The best part of the film was the part played by Sigourney Weaver. She played a believable Texas country girl with a bad side. If I had run into this character one day in Dalhart I wouldn’t haven’t thought twice about it.
I’d give it a 3.5 stars out of 5.
