Christopher Reeve's final Superman film tackles the serious subject of nuclear disarmament and brings back Gene Hackman as the Man of Steel's archenemy, evil scientist Lex Luthor. While Superman concentrates on disposing of nuclear weapons stockpiled all over the world, Luthor creates an evil, superpowered counterpart to do battle with his nemesis. The resulting clashes spread from country to country and even to the surface of the moon, where Krypton's sole survivor seems unequal to the struggle. Reeve, who co-wrote the original story, is more sober than usual in the title role, perhaps befitting his level of commitment to the movie's topical subject matter. Margot Kidder returns as Lois Lane, but she's overshadowed by Mariel Hemingway, who plays the perky daughter of the new Daily Planet owner and sets her sights on Clark Kent. Hackman's Luthor is, as usual, delightfully zany, and his presence adds welcome flair to the proceedings. Superman IV brings the Reeve series to an explosive conclusion, and its high-octane action sequences will more than satisfy comic book fans and casual viewers alike.
