That's my point. In Batman Begins, he comes full circle and gets to BE Batman for the last act and be awesome at it.
No he doesn't. He doesn't even get to BE Batman and be awesome at it by the third film in his franchise.
Clark became Superman way more and better than Bruce became Batman in Begins.
1. He had a fight against Superbeings in Smallville and they destroyed a lot, He should've known from there that this is not a battle to be having in a city filled with humans that can be ripped like paper to them
Good thing the battle, until the VERY END, took place in the part of the city with zero humans. Only after being knocked from space by Zod (where Clark could not at all control where they landed) did they land somewhere with people.
2. One knows how to control his powers and one just got them even if he is a tactician he barely knows what he's doing Clark could've moved the battle in anyway he wanted.
Saying "Clark could've moved the battle" is really easy to say but that doesn't make it a fact. I'd really like to know about your reasoning here.
Zod didn't "barely" know what he was doing, he caught on VERY well VERY fast due to being a warrior. Clark having the powers his entire life doesn't matter as much when you realize that less than one month ago, due to the lack of USING the powers, he was barely able to lift an oil rig and wasn't flying at all.
The only thing Superman has on Zod in the fight is pure strength and a higher level of invulnerability due to being such a solar battery. Feeling less pain and being able to throw a stronger punch /=/ mean he can "move the battle anyway he wanted."
I really feel like you all expect too much of Superman. Which is the entire point of the character. EVERYONE looks at him as this ideal and this legend and put him on a pedestal, EVERY single hero looks up to him. Superman tries to live up to this ideal, but as CLOSE as he is to the ideal, he's not perfect. As I said before, one of the most important parts of Superman is the "MAN." He makes mistakes, he learns, he grows, he isn't an omnipotent being that makes the best decision the first time every time. Certainly not the first time he ever tries to help the planet.
Don't get me wrong, if Superman just destroys a bunch of property and doesn't have better plans and ideas for fighting a villain in future films then I'll agree with you. But I really feel like most of the people complaining about how Superman acts is basing their judgement by comparing him to the Superman who has been doing it for years and years. That's just not a fair comparison.
