In fact, Superman is no longer in line with the current aesthetic taste, and now people appreciate the incomplete beauty. Such as the unconfident Spider-Man, such as the depressed Hulk, such as Anakin stepping into the dark, such as the X-Men who are often beaten, such as Batman in distress.
As for Superman, no flaw is his biggest flaw. He is invulnerable to swords and guns, and his speed is unmatched. He can go to the sky and enter the sea, and no one can beat him. The only weakness is the krypton crystal. Emotional issues are not a problem either. Because of his superhuman abilities, it would be a luxury to even create an evenly matched opponent for him: that would split the earth in half, and it would be like a confrontation between two Godzillas.
Maybe the end of The Matrix 3 can be a reference, but can you imagine Superman being beaten up in muddy water?
This time, the screenwriter simply chose a mortal opponent for Superman. In addition to the krypton element, he also invited the crystal technology of Superman's hometown, which is quite sincere.
The plot twists are perfect. The details are also sculpted meticulously.
After saving the plane, Superman said: "According to statistics, the plane is still the safest way to travel", this sentence clearly reflects the 9/11 incident.
The entanglement between Superman and his mortal girlfriend was also handled reasonably.
Many people saw the green hat cast by the boyfriend of Superman's girlfriend, but did not see why the character appeared. His identity and character, as well as his actions, are instilling in Americans that we mortals can act no worse than superhumans. This is a tribute to those firefighters and police officers who died in 9/11.
However, this film is not superhuman at all, and it does not have the super cool feeling that Superman should give people. Superman is mad. People are no longer satisfied with simple supernatural heroism.
If he wants to do a sequel, I really don't know how else to do it. Maybe making Superman lose his superpowers is a way out, but this plot has also been played by people -- Spider-Man who will fail.
