| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Superman IV: Quest For Peace |
|---|
A pathetic attempt to make another Superman movie that also tries to make a social statement on the evils of nuclear weapons and the evil businessmen that manufacture them. Superman decides that if the countries of the world will not get rid of nuclear weapons then he will and procedes to do so. The evil arms manufacturers get Lex Luthor to create a "Nuclear Man" from the cells of the big guy. It just goes down the tubes from here. This movie whould have been called "The Quest For Cash" because they sure weren't trying to make a good movie.
--Preston, Resident Scholar
