Clark discovers his identity and destiny to help the people of Earth. He discovers that he can use his powers for good and save mankind.
Review
This superhero movie has symbolism all throughout the film. It demonstrates how an adopted child often loves his or her adopted parents but still needs to understand where they come from (even if they love their home and family). By doing this they are able to accept themselves, know their genetic background, and the traits that are often inherited from birth parents.
