I had exactly the opposite experience a few years ago. I hadn't watch any of the Reeves Superman movies since I was about 13 at most so I still remembered them as being utterly awesome. Then Superman comes on TV and I watched. I heard the music and got all excited. Then the move started and I began to get uncomfortable and then I started cringing. It was so freaking bad. Utter cheese fest but not cheese in a good way. Only the music holds up by today's standards. Some movies are timeless and will always be good, some will end up looking horrible and this was one of them.
