    This was a favorite of mine growing up. The biggest complaint I have about the transfer is the inconsistency in 4K. Some of the scenes are so grainy and noisy and others are crisp, clear and bright. I know that the grain is from the original film stock but things darker scenes really do show their age. It’s also surprising how many special effects hold up and how many don’t. I don’t think it will ever look any better so it’s good as a record of just how far filmmaking technology has come.

    Looks amazing in 4K. Great to see such a great transfer. Film grain is present, but that's from the original material. Grab it if you're a fan.

    The best the theatrical version of Superman has looked on home video. Hopefully the extended edition will be released in 4K in the near future. Still one of the best and iconic super hero films ever made, despite the age.

    One of the main 4K movies I needed, my all time favorite superhero. This 4K transfer is amazing. Looks like an entirely new movie now.

    4K transfer is a bit of a letdown.

    If you already own Superman on blu-ray, you might want to pass on the 4K UHD as it is not “leaps and bounds” (no pun intended) above the standard blu-ray. For the most part, use of HDR is subtle and the picture is not much sharper. The grain field is very heavy especially in the opening sequence on Krypton. Between the heavy grain and the softness in the Kryptonian sequence, you would never know that you were viewing a UHD blu-ray. Things do get better especially when Clark/Superman moves to Metropolis but all-in-all, Superman on 4K UHD is probably not worth a double dip.

    This is a must have for your collection. Chris Reeves was perfect for the part of Superman. 4K Ultra HD great to.

    What can you say about this movie other than this is a classic and is very impressive in 4K. Only downside is it does not contain the extended version of the film, only the theatrical version.

    Very much rooted in classic Americana, Superman: The Movie reflects a past of simple nostalgia from its brassy score, soft focus/norman rockwell cinematography, and the endearing (and slightly corny) performances. The movie doesn't really have a strong narrative, and personally the portrayal of Lex Luthor isn't my favorite, but it's Christopher Reeve as Superman, and Margot Kidder as Lois Lane that make this movie something truly special. And just to say this for any current Superman film fans reading this, Reeve and Cavill are both Superman to me. This is a required purchase for anyone who is a film fan, for anyone who is a superhero fan in order to explore the early years of the genre.

    This is my favorite Superman movie of all time, no matter what people say. None of the others, remakes, sequels, or what have you versions has had the same affect on me as the original 1978 theatrical version of Superman: The Movie. It has heart & soul, It has the right amount of humor not over the top, perfect memorable music, but most importantly, it is uplifting. This movie left me feeling so good that it has stayed with me all my life. This 4K version is the best I seen so far. It's an old movie so the print looks a little worn out at times but for the most part it is sharp and filmic. I'm glad that Warner Bros. released the original theatrical cut. My prayers were answered.

    My Review of SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE (1978)

    I love this movie! A childhood classic! Got it on a GREAT sale, "20% off for 2 or more Movies & Shows", got it a long with a 4K copy of Man of Steel (2013), and both came great! The best part about getting this Cinematic Masterpiece was having to receive it with a Slipcover & came with the 80 Years sticker on the Slipcover. In terms of the 4K transfer, if you like grain in classic movies, this film definitely has it. But, that is okay, because this movie looks great with the grain. Also, there is some mild bonus material on the Blu-Ray, but that's okay, I guess. Overall, still a 5/5 for me with the film especially. If you do not have this movie in your 4K collection, then YES, it's worth having!

    Superman the movie is a timeless superhero film for fans young and old. Not only this DVD has a special edition disc that shows 2 hours and 7 min, but the second disc has the extended cut that is the 3-hour long tv version that has not been seen since it was aired on ABC tv as a two-night event. This is without a doubt a must-have collector item for superhero fans. If you want more the special edition disc has extras featuring commentary by Director Richard Donner and 3 Documentaries. Starring Christopher Reeve as The Man of Steel, Marlon Brando, Gene Hackman, And Margot Kidder as Lois Lane. Since 1978 Superman the Movie has stood the test of time, and after all these years this film will still make you believe a man can fly!
