I disagree with this. There are some great Superman stories out there. Superman's main weakness, besides Kryptonite, is that he always tries to do the right thing and genuinely cares about human life. To defeat Superman, you don't necessarily have to harm him physically, but do harm to innocent people.
Lex Luthor is his main enemy, because he is smarter than Superman and doesn't always do the right thing. In reality, Superman cannot be in two places at once. He will also harm himself for the purpose of saving innocent lives.
This was what Snyder seemed to miss. He actually had a great overall plot in the Man of Steel. If he'd depicted Superman's emotions better it would have been a great movie. Cavill scowled the whole time and was way too callous about killing Zod. In the comics, Superman kills Zod, as he sees no other choice. He's then haunted by that decision for the rest of his life; the consequences of that decision influence all future decisions Superman makes. That really didn't come across at all in the Snyder movies.
