If you loved Superman, try Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut has roughly 11.0× fewer votes than Superman — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Richard Donner, and they both carry the epic, uplifting mood tags, and they sit in Action / Adventure / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Superman, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
