Superman - The MovieSuperman - The Movie

Buy new: $11.49 / Used from: $4.02
A light-hearted and highly entertaining film with loveable characters and unforgettanle moments,
The MatrixThe Matrix
Buy used from: $0.01
A solid production, and very thrilling to watch. The sequals don't do it justice. Probably the only time I ever enjoyed watching Keanu Reeves. Some computer FX doesn't cut it for me however.
Spider-Man (Widescreen Special Edition)Spider-Man (Widescreen Special Edition)
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01
Spirited and energetic film that finally gives us Spidey on the big screen, and it was worth the wait. Some computer animation ruins some moments for me.
The Mask of Zorro (Deluxe Edition)The Mask of Zorro (Deluxe Edition)
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $2.27
Enjoyable film with a dark undertone, yet it makes us smile and believe in the powers of the heart.
Superman IISuperman II
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $0.59
Three baddies with Superman's powers, and only one Superman to stop them...
Batman (Two-Disc Special Edition)Batman (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $20.49 / Used from: $5.98
Classic lines and performances balance off clumsy moments in this much-loved film which introduced the black-armored Batman to audiances. Jack is natural as the Joker.
Spider-Man 2 (Widescreen Special Edition)Spider-Man 2 (Widescreen Special Edition)
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.01
Doc Oc is just misunderstood, really ... the difference with Mary-Jane between the films and the comics become more clear in this one, and that bothers some hardcore Spidey fans. Otherwise, well made.
Superman IIISuperman III
Buy used from: $0.44
WIth a sense of humour, this third addition hits us with more memorable moments, and some stunning FX to boot.
DarkmanDarkman
Buy used from: $1.37
Liam Neeson plays a very human superhero in this one. That is, one we can better relate too; flawed. A well-acted drama about a bandaged recluse.
Teenage Mutant Ninja TurtlesTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $1.00
Surprisingly well done; that is to say, fun and somewhat witty. I felt Shredder could have done more...
Batman Returns (Two-Disc Special Edition)Batman Returns (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $24.49 / Used from: $4.97
Often misjudged well-done film about how the harshness of the world can mess with our heads. Michelle Pfeiffer played the best and sexiest cat woman to date.
The PunisherThe Punisher
Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $1.94
A pretty good film about the comic book character, who really fits somewhere between hero and villain. Enjoyable if you like films with shooting.
The Incredible Hulk - Original Television PremiereThe Incredible Hulk - Original Television Premiere
Buy new: $6.49 / Used from: $0.01
Much better than the recent animated blunder, back in the 70's the Hulk may have been just a guy with green paint, but he was believeable! An emotional drama, not to be missed!
RobocopRobocop
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $1.17
Why do I include Robocop and not T-2 on this list? Well ... it's hard to say, what makes one a *hero*. Robocop is violent but he is clearly well-intended. Its blood and gore was shocking in its time.
X-Men 1.5X-Men 1.5
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $0.01
Some truly wonderful character scenes are off-balanced by terrible battle scenes and clumsy computer FX. Enjoyable for some.
Spawn - The Director's Cut (New Line Platinum Series)Spawn - The Director's Cut (New Line Platinum Series)
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $1.92
This could have been a much better film, but again, computer animation ... but it has some good points. See the animated series though; much better quality!
X2 - X-Men United (Two-Disc Widescreen Edition)X2 - X-Men United (Two-Disc Widescreen Edition)
Buy used from: $0.05
Some consider this better than the first, others see it as more of the same with some improvements. The characters make it worth while.
