Superman III

Superman III

1983

In this second sequel, comedy is delivered with the same gusto that falling helicopters and nuclear warheads were in the first two Superman films. Bumbling computer programmer Richard Pryor harbors a streak of genius; taking advantage of that fact -- and taking over the "heavy" lifting from Gene Hackman -- is Robert Vaughn, who'll do anything to destroy the Man of Steel (Christopher Reeve).

If the world's most powerful computer can control even Superman...no one on earth is safe.

I want to rate Superman III lower, but it's hard to do that to Reeve.
