      Cavill is a horrible Clark Kent... Cavill's Clark Kent is the same as superman. There needs to be a distinction between Clark Kent and Superman; in Reeves' case, he is confident as superman and nerdy/weak as Clark Kent. Henry Cavill is plays a badass Clark Kent and Superman which doesn't fit well. Clark Kent=Disguise to fit into society, Superman=Superior to average being

His appearance, short hair, 3 piece black suit, is designed to be forgettable. He's less confrontational, more reserved, shy.

A Superman movie can be just about anything, they could have even found a way to make the movie have more than one tone.

    I love that Clark steps in front of Lois before he remembers that he's supposed to be "mild-mannered". I love that Lois kicks the mugger in the face - her character has never been portrayed as a coward. And I love that Clark grins as he looks at the bullet in his palm - he enjoys playing Clark!

    My favorite part of Superman: The Movie: he doesn't throw a single punch.

Even in the second movie--when he fights much more--he's sure to protect the citizens of Metropolis from the destruction caused by the battle. It's what makes Superman Superman.
