Superman IV: The Quest for Peace review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 12/18/11
Luthor and his nephew steal Superman's hair to create "Nuclear Man." Superman makes a message to all nations to remove all nuclear weapons. After re-watching this film, it seems that it was an unfitting end of the the franchise. It seemed more of statement documentary with prolonged dialogues instead of an entertaining fantasy. Fascinating how Superman knew who Nuclear Man was looking for and that he had a few extra powers. The intent of abducting Lacy (Mariel Hemingway) was never even explained. Has the worst screenplay of all and the obvious wiring that makes Reeves fly (where he drops off Nuclear Man) was visible. Not even John Williams' score can save the movie. Superman IV: The Quest for Peace was just preposterous.
