“Superman III” tiene un tono por lo menos extraño. Es súper frenética y contrasta con un humor más absurdo que las 2 películas anteriores. Es tan dinámica que no deja al espectador descansar, es cómo una montaña rusa que solo va hacia arriba, no hay un contraste dramático en la historia, la película siempre se mantiene en el mismo punto, haciendo que los momentos climáticos no tengan ese toque sentimental que la trama fue construyendo para el espectador. Siendo un gran ejemplo cuando Superman se vuelve malo, estructuralmente no tiene sentido, solo pasa porque el guion lo dice, no crea impotencia en el espectador poque la película no construyó orgánicamente ese momento a lo largo de la cinta, solo es un suceso más. Pero aún así siento que hay cosas interesantes en esta película, tecnológicamente esta entrega es la más superior, la escena de la fábrica es realmente buena, se nota que esta película ya no está tan limitada en ese aspecto. La relación de Clark con Lana me pareció lo mejor de la película, la parte en Smallville, que curiosamente es la única parte dónde la película baja su ritmo es la más propositiva en el arco interno de nuestro protagonista, ya que se plantea el romance entre ellos de muy buena forma. Esta película, al menos en mi percepción si me llegó a aturdir, está muy lejos del lado humano que desarrolló brillantemente la primera parte, al igual que el dilema interno que la segunda tuvo con Clark Kent en su construcción cómo individuo, esta está lejos de esa profundidad, pero si siento que aún mantiene esa vibra que nos hace amar a este personaje.

The Salkinds trash the Superman legend by turning it into a slapstick comedy!! And they do this by casting Richard Pryor, who was a great comic, but had NO credibility as a serious actor! You should have stuck with serious actors, guys!! The result: A catastrophe that wound up ruining the movie; knocking Superman off the Top of the DC lineup for good...to be replaced by Batman! You sold out a legend, Salkinds!

I don’t blame the negative reviews. This is not in the same league as the first two films but I thought it was still good, and pretty underrated. It’s more a lighthearted comedic take on the franchise, maybe a little too comedic. But it was fun from start to finish. The battle between the good and bad Superman was a good idea and well done and certainly the best part of this film.

'Superman III' is just rubbish, isn't it? I wasn't hating what I was watching or anything, but I was just sat there continuously thinking: this is just bad, huh. Much of the movie feels like the titular character is sidelined, then even when he is onscreen he's... depressed? Odd choice.
Christopher Reeve remains good, no issues there. Margot Kidder is involved but barely features, to be fair Annette O'Toole is solid in her bit. Richard Pryor, Robert Vaughn & Co. are OK in terms of what they give, but their characters are highly uninteresting. I just didn't care at all.
That opening sequence really gives you a peek into what you're going to be watching. Of course there are signs in the prior movies that the filmmakers wanted to stray into dumbed down comedy and it might've worked as a standalone picture, but as a Superman film? Not a chance.

While the flaws in tone, visual effects, and general filmmaking in the first couple of films could be forgiven as products of their time, the same grace feels undeserved here due to the sheer breakdown in storytelling. The film is riddled with contrivances and even plot holes, with many narrative choices making little sense.
The characters lack clear motivations, development, or meaningful arcs, making it difficult to engage with their journeys. Some performances only exacerbate this issue, with certain characters becoming unbearably annoying rather than compelling. The comedic tone, which leans heavily into slapstick, rarely lands and feels more distracting than effective.
The film does start on a promising note, placing the protagonist in a fresh setting (his hometown), while also introducing a character with a relatable backstory who initially sparks intrigue as a potential ally or villain. Unfortunately, these elements remain underdeveloped and fizzle out by the midpoint. The protagonist undergoes a moral shift not through any meaningful internal conflict but simply because the villains wanted to harm him. His subsequent "evil" acts feel random, lacking consequence in both the plot and the film's thematic exploration. His redemption arc is similarly unearned, as he abruptly decides to fight back and confront the villains, whom he only truly encounters in the final act.
Ultimately, this is a film I wouldn’t recommend, unless you're curious to see how a poorly executed sequel can derail a series or simply want to complete the four-film run for the sake of completion.
