I was expecting a comedy when I tried to watch this movie, but I was disappointed.

I lived in the era in which it was made, and it would have been as boring then as it is now. I remember seeing many such boring shows, and this might have been one of them.

It's hard to say what this is about. There's no continuity. I'm not sure who the Earth girls are, or who the aliens are. Nothing is clear, and nothing is interesting.

My rating system is to give 1 and 2 to very depressing movies that just drain you. This one is just a forgettable one that just bores you.

There's no way to sit and watch this in one sitting. And to watch it in many sittings doesn't help either. I can't say the characters are interesting or not, because as far as I can tell, there is no characterization. The dialog is just a bunch of words put together by people who have never heard real people speak.

It might cure your Insomnia, though.

This movie was probably good if the actors and actresses could enunciate and speak less than a hundred words a second, but the pathetic acting and sound quality ruined what might be a good movie. There's really no way to know without closed caption.

So, it might work on television, but it doesn't work in a theater.

I had the feeling that I would like it if I could understand the words. I caught about 25% of the words I think. The super humans in this movie are Superman, Green Lantern, Krypto the dog, Hawkgirl, and some whose names or titles are never mentioned in English by anyone who can enunciate a word. In the end, Supergirl appears, and I never hear her name, but I know her costume.

I heard the name "Rex" for one who looked like Metamorpho of old comic books. He was an element man who could change any part of his body to any element, so that's very powerful. Another hero, who never is mentioned by name that I could hear, plays a big role in the movie, accompanying Lois Lane on something about a black hole. You won't be able to understand any more words than that, unless you get closed caption.

Given this, I really can't say what the movie is about. Superman does bend over backwards to save lives, so we have a very monumental task for him right there, because buildings are falling, and giant monsters are wrecking the city.

A message appears on screen that Lex Luthor claims that Superman was sent to Earth to be a king, so that is one of the plots. Also, we see phone messages that let us know that Jimmy Olsen has a phone relationship with one of Lex Luthor's girlfriends.

While it's impossible to understand the dialog, we can tell that Krypto is a loving dog, and Superman is a loving character, and that makes it watchable.

Strangely, the first 90% of the movie has poor sound, but the final 10% or so we get somewhat clearer sound, and I don't know why, but it explains what we just saw.

From the last part of the movie, it seems that the good guys saved the world from something Lex Luthor was doing, and that Superman considers himself more Earthman than Kryptonian. I don't think that's a spoiler.

Unfortunately, director Aldridge-Neil uses all of his resources to just continue the ignorant misinterpretation of demonic beings that led to the horrors that come from believing that humans are demons instead of the reality that is clearly taught by the one we call Jesus.

The narrator gives instances in History of these false narratives about demons. Demons are clearly supernatural forces, but Aldridge-Neil is trying to keep us in the Middle Ages with the same "rationalization" that existed in those days.

Aldridge-Neil insists that the superstition is based on the belief that the demons were supernatural, when he clearly admits that people in those times claimed that the demons were "material". This was "materialism.

It's not brain surgery. It's simple honesty in reading the facts. For example, the floating test that was lethal to the subject no matter what happened. If the subject sank, the subject was not guilty and drowned. If the subject floated, the subject didn't drown, but was declared a "material" witch and executed.

Everyone knows that muscle mass is heavier than adipose tissue (pleasant way to say "fat"). The people lived in actual "lifeboat situations" with Winter being a time of possible famine, and only so many people sustainable. It was natural to believe in the staunch pilgrim principle of "don't work, don't eat", so those with more muscle were deemed worthier of life. Even if they didn't do more work, they appeared to do more work. People who were hurt and laid up and not usable any more, were not usable.

"Rationalization" is the reason for almost everything.

The ignorance of the masses was never about "religion". We know this because even the narrator here admits that the belief was in physical presences of demons, of witches being materialistic beings with super powers.

This was always contrary to every religion that acknowledged that demonic forces were supernatural principalities. It is only possible for materialistic people to believe in this Middle Ages concept.

And that's what the director does by his own words. Ironic.

This program is exactly the same Middle Ages concept of materialistic rationalization that caused the atrocities explained by the narrator. Super Ironic that the director continually claims it to be the opposite. Very moronic video that pawns itself.
