That's pretty hard to determine. You'll hear a lot in online gamer echo chambers that Cavill was in the right, but critical reception of season 2 was better than season 1.
Similar things with Wheel of Time and Rings of Power. They were massive ratings hits despite the diehard fans of the source material having online conniptions.

Enough people watched them to justify their 10-figure costs.
Amazon said that Wheel of Time was top 5 for viewership for Prime Video. Rings of Power is #1.
Neither of those are really ambiguous statements.
