Why was Man of Steel controversial?
While Man of Steel's ending became controversial in part due to the level of destruction Metropolis suffered and Superman's role in it, the movie's most divisive moment was certainly Clark killing General Zod.

Cavill would later regrettably confirm this, with the amicable clarification that James Gunn and Peter Safran "have a universe to build" in which a younger Superman would appear in the early stages of his superhero career.
