And? Captain America had a very specific purpose that you might have missed. That cheesy, aw shucks 1940's appeal was deliberate. That meant a little overacting, some scenery chewing by caricatures. It HAD to feel like Leave it to Beaver or close to it.
It's ok that you didn't "like" it, but the film was very reminiscent of Cap's origins. That was sort of the point to the whole thing.

They incompletely missed the mark on this goal. It didn't come across as 1940's cheese, it came across as bad film making.

The bottom line is that Captain America The First Avenger felt cohesive. Man of Steel felt like Snyder was trying to do some things that Nolan had done with Batman, but at the same time supe it up (pun intended) to where the fights were over the top and played out like something you'd see in Sucker Punch of 300. Then he tried to shove a love interest that made no sense into the movie and you came away with one of the most disappointing superhero movies of the last decade. Everything felt forced. The story was, itself, pretty good, but nothing felt real, nothing felt like it belonged together. Maybe Snyder was making some high meta statement about how out of place Superman was on Earth by making the movie a jumbled mess, but I doubt it.
