For the most part I enjoyed this movie. Not as great as Public Enemies, but it was fun.
Though while I understand that movies based on comics will never be exact adaptations, changing the ending of the Supergirl story arc (Superman-Batman issues #8-13), specifically #12 and #13 was a real disappointment. I was looking forward to seeing the League join in to fix up Kent Farms after Darkseid and Superman fight it out, plus faking Supergirl's death so that they could ensure that Darkseid would leave her alone. Plus the scene where she addresses the League to state that she hopes to earn their respect and represent the Superman Family well.
All important stuff, in my opinion, that was missing.
As for the scene where Clark takes Kara shopping, to be like an Earth girl - I thought it was funny, rather then insulting. By now, I would hope we (as intelligent human beings) know that there are more to women then shopping and shoes (even if on the surface, some women still perpetuate that image). I thought it was amusing, that Clark (an alien) thinks of this as a suitable activity - because that's what he observes in human girls - he doesn't know better - and therefore Kara doesn't know better.
