While I thought MoS was better than expected it wasn't mind blowing or anything. A lot of the writing was mediocre. The whole "this isn't super man, he would take them away from the city, etc." complaints don't hold water in my opinion. This isn't the comic, in the lore that the movie made for itself. In the movie he was a reluctant "hero" and was tormented left and right for being odd. He never really did anything but lift stuff to save people.

Basically, he never really got in a fight and never really explored his powers until he started flying around in Antarctica. Having never explored his powers or fought anyone from Kyrpton, it's sort of hard for him to know "this fight is gonna be super destructive, I should move away from the city." Sure, you can argue after the first fight, he would have known the destructive nature of the battles and moved away, but the enemies were gonna mess stuff up and blow things up looking for the....whatever it was called....regardless of where Clark was.
