Overall, and I might be alone on this one, I thought Routh did a pretty terrific job. He was perfect as Superman, visually and verbally. He wasn't that good as Clark Kent, but Kent was almost superfluous in the movie anyway.

The lifting of the island thing was a tad ridiculous, but, really...was it more ridiculous than turning back time by flying really fast? I guess we were supposed to believe that his recharging gave him the strength to repel the kryptonite's effects long enough to get it into orbit(and then enough strength to survive the fall back to Earth).
