We see Clark just visiting his parents. Then Superman gets into a fight with Metallo and loses badly. He goes home to his parents and they help him heal his wounds. Then when Metallo finds him in metropolis again, they fight again. This time when it looks like Clark is about to lose he thinks of Lois and he gets his strength back. Finally he beats Metallo and saves the people of metropolis. He flys up in the sky around Metropolis, smiles at Lois, then at the camera, and black screen. This is a loose-ish outline of what the first Superman movie in the new DCU should be. Tell me your thoughts in the comics. Post credits scene: Lois bumps into Clark and drops some pictures.
