There is really not a lot to say for this film but that it was a comlete waste of time. A badly financed film with some of the craziest ideas for a villain that by the end of this film you will feel depressed over how you wasted valuable time from your life.
The story is that Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) escapes from prison and has the ultimate plan to destroy Superman (Christopher Reeve). He takes a piece of Superman's hair mixes it with a "fetus" lets say and attaches it onto a missile which Superman throws into the Sun. The explosion then creates a being called Nuclear Man. Yes that is the name of the villain in the film and he's quite mind blowingly bad. At the same time Clark has to face the Daily Planet falling in the hands of a scandal newspaper owner and his daughter Lacy's (Mariel Hemingway) advances on him. If that wasn't enough. The whole world cant achieve world peace because of too many nuclear weapons and Superman is the only one who can do the job..
Just by reading the summary I've already clarified enough to how silly and bad this film is. There is really nothing much more to say except that they shouldn't have made the film if they didn't have the money and that they should have had more respect for the character and for continuity of the franchise. Quest for Peace should have been called Quest for a good reason to make another shitty film!
