Revealing mistake: In the final scene, Superman is returning the White House's flag to its rightful place, flying over the fountain on the lawn...which is frozen solid in place. Obviously a photo backdrop.

Superman II is a step down from the first movie and suffers from sluggish pacing and a few instances of unfunny comedy, but is nonetheless still an entertaining sequel with decent action and great performances, particularly from the late Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder, whose chemistry with each other really is the heart of the film.
Superman II is an 1980 Action Adventure Science Fiction movie where the Man of Steel fights Lex Luther as well as three despicable Kryptonian criminals-Zod, Ursa and Non. Though highly dated, there are still some fun moments in this classic and the effects are serviceable. Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder star.
