Is this Superman feat taken out of context?

Supposedly, Superman is deflecting 3 rounds of kryptonite radiation waves simultaneously fired by Kryptonite Man mid-fight.

However, this may be an animation thing. I don't think Kryptonite Man is crooked eyed and can look at three things at the same time.

In my context, the frame shows that KM shot one beam at SM, and SM deflected it. SM moves, and KM shoots again. Another repeat. It makes sense that the beams are shot one at a time toward each new position of SM. It flows with the dialogue, and it wouldn't make sense that KM would shoot way off from SM so that SM would move there and reflect it back.

One could say that SM was trying to melt the floor, but I'm pretty sure the floor melted because KM got too angry and overloaded.

One may also say that the scene shows KM with several beams coming from his eyes, but I say that it may be taken as an animation flaw again. Unless he can move his 2 eyes in several different directions at once or fire like a shotgun, I believe that he needed to turn his head and fire again.

What do you guys think?
