I never warmed to Margot Kidder's 'Lois Lane'. Although, fine in other
roles, I never liked her take on the character. Couldn't understand what
Clark / Superman would see in her? Not a very nice person it seems and not
enough meat on her bones either .. a female 'Skelator' in some shots!
I haven't seen the new SUPERMAN yet and given my schedule, will have to wait
for the DVD.
Thanks for the word on 'THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA' .

I saw SUPERMAN RETURNS in Imax 3D on Wednesday. I was pretty disappointed.
The film was so grossly overproduced that any sense of story or character
development was totally lost. Kevin Spacey, who should have had a ball as
Lex Luthor, was sleep-walking through his performance. The actress who
played Lois Lane, Kate Bosworth, is about as appealing in this role as one
of those yuppie women on the bus riding to their jobs at a law office
downtown. She made me yearn for an interesting take on the character, like
Margot Kidder, dare I say it? Overall, a bland film sinking under the
Titanic-like weight of its production values. Indeed disappointing.
On a more upbeat note, I saw THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA last night. Now that's
an incredibly entertaining movie and if Meryl Streep doesn't win an Oscar
for that performance, there's NO JUSTICE!
