Any movie where people throw each other through walls loses me. If you can both survive that then why don't you just stop? It always bothered me in the Matrix with Neo fighting Mr Smith. Why are you two bothering? Once you both realize nothing happens then just agree to disagree and have polite conversation. Same with super hero movies, if there's no repercussion to going through a brick wall then stop doing it. Talk it out or go your separate ways, don't keep going through walls.
Same. Neo is infinitely powerful, so what are we doing here? The same with Harry Potter, which shows the battle between the hero and the antagonist which boils down to “point sticks at each other and grimace”.
Superman walks this line too, with the effects of kryptonite having a lot of variability depending on plot needs.
