Perfectly worded and criticised. I stand ten toes behind Clark/Superman but this is the exact reason why I am not nor do I plan on seeing this movie. It’s nothing necessarily new being told. It’s the alien who gets the girl and tries to save the world. It’s the same trope that’s been told for almost 100 years. I hope one day we get a Superman movie that’s truly fresh.
