I agree that Christopher Reeve proved to be a good actor, but his performances in the Superman series were not nuanced and deep. They were only slight glosses on what one could very legitimately describe as cartoonish. Reeve himself described these performances in this sort of way.

I've liked some of the superhero movies quite well, even thoughI haven't seen all of them. But I can't recall a one in which the character's backstory was more complex than "my parents were murdered and now I'm screwed up and I've got a dark side."
