'HE'S BACK'. A hero for our millennium. And not a moment too soon, because during the five years (much longer in movie-fan years!) 'Superman' sought his home planet, things changed on his adopted planet. Nations moved on without him. 'Lois Lane' now has a son, a fiancé and a Pulitzer for "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman." And 'Lex Luthor' has a plan that will destroy millions - no, billions - of lives.

Filmmaker Bryan Singer ('X-Men', 'X2') gives the world the Superman it needs, honoring the legend everyone loves while taking it in a powerful new direction. Brandon Routh proves a perfect choice to wear the hero's cape, leading a top cast that includes Kate Bosworth as Lois and Kevin Spacey as Lex. And the thrills - from a sky-grapple with a tumbling jumbo jet to a continent-convulsing showdown - redefine 'Wow'. "I'm always around," Superman tells Lois. You'll be glad he is.
