Just got back from seeing it.
Yeah - they tweaked his origin some. And the costume. But they kept the essence true. And they REALLY emphasized how difficult is was for him to come to terms with his powers. Especially his enhanced senses. This becomes very important when he's fighting Zod and the other Kryptonians later in the film. (What? Not like that's a huge spoiler - it's been in all the trailers.)
And about that conflict -
Remember the "World Made of Cardboard" scene from the last episode of Justice League Unlimited? Remember earlier in the same series the fight between Superman and Captain Marvel?
The entire second half of the movie is that.
And. IT. IS. AWESOME.
For the very first time in any Superman movie, I think you REALLY get the visceral sense of what beings like that could do. The impacts, the collateral damage, the sheer SPEED at which they can react and move!
Just... damn.
Go see it. Highly recommended.
