Yeah, the rating rather confused me too. I think it's just that we're so used to PG-13 meaning "Almost R-Rated" that something barely beyond PG does't feel like that much.

I really enjoyed Superman Returns. It's not as good as Batman Begins, and I really wish there had been a Superbrawl somewhere in the film. The biggest problem was that it didn't really inspire me. Superman is supposed to inspire, and I found Jor-El's words more inspirational than most of the film. That said, it still was quite good. The effects were amazing, and Routh works as Superman. The suit even didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. Lois Lane, though, I don't know. Kate Bosworth did a fine job for who she is and what her part was, but I still think Lois should have been cast as somebody older and with more spunk. I'm so used to the Dana Delany version of Lois that this version just didn't feel 'right' if you know what I mean.
