At the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation fundraiser A Magical Evening held in New York, Matthew -- Reeve's 29 year-old son with model Gae Exton -- had few kind words for the disappointing movie Superman Returns.

After the obligatory and understandable, "There's only ever going to be one Superman," Matthew told MTV's Splash Page. The story was the real problem.

"If you look at The Dark Knight, that was a phenomenal movie, and hopefully they can do something as good with the next version of this one," he said. "Just be original and creative and exciting, and I'm sure it will be successful."
