I don’t like Superman: The Movie either.
Pushing aside all my issues with Clark’s characterization, I still hate everything pertaining to Luthor, Otis, and that dumbass ending.
It’s baffling that it’s a 4 stars on RogerEbert.com. Man of Steel is leaps and bounds ahead of the first superman.
If you don’t like the first Donner Superman, that’s fine. But saying Man of Steel is better? 'Em is fighting words!
