In the movies, we don't really get a sense of the character, other than that he's played by the dude from the Town, Bourne Legacy himself, Jeremy Renner. Sure he wears a brownish purple, and looks like a soldier, but that's not what contemporary Hawkeye's about.
Personality: he wears stylish clothing, is portrayed in comic book panels as if he was in a modernist painting of the 1950s, selling Mad Men superhero comic books. He's a James Bond of superheroes. An Gary Stu that is the best.
He's a womanizer. He has emotions. He's human. He's relatable. He's a character, despite always constantly saving the day.
Heck, if you even want to debate it even more, he lacks a lot of what made him interesting when he was introduced.
He was originally a reluctant villain who teased what side he was going to work for prior to becoming a hero, in masterful fashion.
Thanks for oversimplifying again, Joss! Thanks again!
