Even though this is simplifying it, it's true for most critics. From some of the reviews I've seen, a lot of the complaints come from how it's not the Superman they used to know. It's sad to see this movie shunned so hard due to the character's popularity. Come on, one of Man of Steel's faults, according to one review, was that they messed up the meaning of the "S" and that it's supposed to mean "Superman." It's obvious a lot of these critics aren't real fans, since they're just going off of what they know based on the Christopher Reeve films (I know "S" doesn't mean "Superman" in the Reeve films, just an example of the guy's ignorance). So generally, everyone thinks Superman is this one-dimensional good guy who can do no wrong. Personally, I see nothing wrong with the Superman that was portrayed in Man of Steel. It was a good take and nothing that hasn't been done before.
