 RICHARD DONNER ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! September 20, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The script, the acting, Marlon Brando...all combined- cannot even touch the Superman II that was released in America back in the early 80's. After seeing this version of the film, I want a refund for seeing the other one. You can't even commpare the two. It's like comparing an Academy Award Winning Film to Sesame Street. The CEO of Warner Bros. should have been put in jail or fired for releasing that crap and making us pay money to see it.
 Horrible, Just Horrible September 8, 2008

I bought this DVD because it says "Donner Cut", which means remade by original director that was fired by the studios and after viewing this dvd, rightly so. Ok, first Superman movie #1 is awesome, but I'm not sure whether it's old age or he just lost it, but this cut is horrible, just horrible. I almost didn't recognize the first Superman movie I watched as a kid (I saw Superman #1 later) Gone is the spectacular Eiffel Tower scene and in its place a poorly done prologue of the first movie?! That was ghastly. Gone is the famous Lois falling off Niagra Falls scene and in its place, a shotty screen test involving Lois and a pistol? Yikes! Actually there were so many action shots gone, a lot of Brando shots included which even though is Brando, does not really add to the story at all and is quite boring because it's just a halogram of his head! Gone is the kiss that Clark gave Lois so she forgets everything and in its place is something we see in first movie, but just presents plot holes galore it this movie. Lastly, gone is the satisfying ending with Superman bringing back the roof of the White House. What the... Anyway, avoid this at all costs whether you have seen or not seen the original Superman II.
 At Least It's Different September 3, 2008
Having seen the Richard Donner cut of Superman II, I seem to like the original Richard Lester cut better because it's more fun to watch, even with the silliness such as the Phantom Zone villains being able to project force beams from their fingers and Superman throwing a Saran Wrap "S" shield at one of the villains during his fight in the Fortress of Solitude. Some fans of both movies have made their own fan cuts using both versions of Superman II to show what should have appeared in the actual theatrical release, which is probably the best way to go for seeing this movie.

The Version You've Never Seen! August 21, 2008
Superman II - The Richerd Donner Cut is the long awated version of Superman II, Richard Donner was unable to bring to lite. This is a very interesting and entertaining film that has been a hot subject for many Superman fans. Now we have the chance to see what Superman II would have been if Richard Donner had not been replaced by Richard Lester.
Although I am more partial to Richard Lester's Superman II this version of the film is entertaining. However there are times when the film seems to move too fast and some of the original material that helped the story has been deleted. So for some this film might be disappointing in some areas.
The special features are limited but offer a brief glimpse into the making of this film. The audio commentary is interesting in certain segments but unfortunately rehashes the commentary in the 2000 Extended Edition Commentary of Superman: The Movie.
All in all it is a decent film that has been restored for brillant sound and picture. You'll Believe a Man Can Fly, Again!
