Superman II is just as fun as Superman. In fact in some ways it is funner. The gag at Niagara Falls, and Clark Kent 45(Christopher Reeve) saving Lois (Margot Kidder) while bumbling around and not using super powers or so it seams. And then the trip to Superman's residence, and his relinquishing his powers. The bit at the diner is just as fun. Superman without powers is beaten into the ground, but then he returns after getting his powers back.
The basic theme is three other beings (Sarah Douglas, Jack O'Halloran and Terence Stamp) from Krypton show up, after a nuclear bomb explodes in space, releasing them from their prison. They are intent on ruling, and nothing can stop their powers; especially not Superman after relinquishing his powers. Superman has to undo this, but he still is no match for the three. So he has to use subterfuge, and Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman).
