well he didn't "tuned out to be the good guy". He was a bad guy and later became good because of the girl.

I think the message of the film was more that he was always good (to some extent) and that his earlier actions were influenced by his upbringing (in contrast to Metro Man’s)

He simply grew up into the role of the villain. And then he played that role.
