Second time seeing #CraigGillespie's #Supergirl. I think it's more like PG13 version of #ZackSnyder's #RebelMoon rather than #JamesGunn's Guardians Of The Galaxy. Supergirl is a fun ride with emotionyal moments, ups & downs (literally and figuratively) in never seen before worlds.

Der #Film #Supergirl von #JamesGunn leidet an einer Angst vor Verwechlungsgefahr.
Trotz des Potentials, das in den Ähnlichkeiten steckt, tut dieser Film alles, um nicht für #GuardiansoftheGalaxy , #MillyAlcock alles, um nicht für #Wonderwoman und #JasonMomoa alles, um nicht für #Aquaman gehalten zu werden.
So klar dem Film dabei ist, was er nicht sein will, so unklar bleibt, was er sein soll. Er könnte ganz klar sehr mehr sein, als er sich zutraut.

Saw #Supergirl last night. It was fine.
I feel bad for #JamesGunn though. With the purchase of #WarnerBros by the Ellisons, managing DC means working for people he hates.
Consolidation makes the shareholders and CEOs more money but it fucks with creativity and means less jobs.

Supergirl: Toxic Femininity
Summary: Superman’s cousin puts down the bottle, more like moves with it, and actually does something.
Maybe having your lead saying how men don’t own women’s bodies, when no one said they did, then insulting those offended on the grounds of their gender and religion, then changing the canon of a character to say she’s Bi and then finally saying the films better as it doesn’t centre men, isn’t a great way to market a film, as the terrible preview numbers show.
Kara is deeply unlikeable, she is very much the human embodiment of the damaged tattoo from the forehead of Jared Leto’s Joker. She drinks, she’s sad, she’s unpleasant to those around her, as God forbid she doesn’t take out her mental issues on other people. The message of this film is that that is okay behaviour as you can be good but not nice, which is a self defeating morally bankrupt principle. The film thinks this is showing her as a damaged character, with the journey being to show how she becomes more connected to people. However, the film tries to make her seem cool in her broken state glorifying her entitled and bratty behaviour.
Superman is in this, as more than just a target for dog urine, as Gunn and co really respect the character, herein he plays the concerned mother hen constantly checking in, usually to be met with derision or a well actually from Kara.
Of course the film likens being a bride to slavery, by having the villain literally kidnapping women and turning them not into sex slaves as is the case with most human trafficking, but rather brides. The message here is clear, marriage is bad and a prison for women. It is also entirely unoriginal as Mad Max Fury Road did a similar thing about ten years ago.
Lobo gets less screen time than you imagine and serves really to be red meat to throw to the male fans who Alcock has alienated so completely. He’s maybe on screen for a total of 5 minutes.
The focus on Krypto once again shows the weakness of the Gunn verse as it does not seem to be able to stand without having a cute dog to try and guilt butts into seats. This shows a weakness in storytelling. The actual journey of healing if you want to view it like that shows off the toxicity of Kara’s damaged personality and even when she does something good it quickly becomes self centered once again.
Overall, there is a reason that Clayface is having it’s premium formats reconsidered, this feels like edgy Tumblr fanfic from about 2 decades ago.
0.5/5
Pros.
It’s not a 3 hour slog
Cons.
Kara is unlikable
The journey feels incomplete by the end
You’ve seen it before
Lobo is barely in it
It feels like it’s for edgy girls circa 2009

Supergirl Review: A Familiar DCU Mess Wrapped In New Cape
-
#Supergirl Forgot She Was Supergirl
source: themoviedb.org/movie/1081003-s…
There is a strange emptiness at the center of Supergirl. Not because the film lacks explosions, aliens, or cosmic road trips. It has all of that. The problem is simpler. It never knows who its heroine is.
At first, the movie promises something fresh. Supergirl arrives like a punk-rock cousin of Superman. She drinks too much. She gets into fights. She distrusts people. She looks like she escaped from a 90s coming-of-age movie and wandered into a comic book. For a moment, it feels exciting. Like Tank Girl crashing into the #DC Universe.
Then the film loses its nerve.
What follows is a familiar #blockbuster smoothie. One part Guardians of the Galaxy. One part Star Wars. Add a pinch of trauma, a cute animal in danger, some slow-motion shots, and stir until all flavor disappears. The result is a film assembled from spare parts. Like a lightsaber built from IKEA instructions.
#MillyAlcock does her best. She has #charisma. She has #presence. She sells every emotional scene she is given. But even a talented #actress cannot save a #character written without conviction.
The biggest problem is Supergirl herself.
The film wants to tell us this is a female hero with her own identity. It constantly signals rebellion, vulnerability, and emotional scars. Yet whenever the story moves forward, she behaves like a standard male action lead wearing a blonde wig.
She drinks whiskey.
She punches first.
She boasts.
She seeks approval through physical dominance.
At one point she even demands fist bumps like an overgrown fraternity brother.
None of this is inherently wrong. #Women can fight. Women can drink. Women can be rough around the edges. But characters need internal consistency. #Ripley from Alien felt believable. #SarahConnor evolved naturally. #Furiosa carried strength without pretending to be Max Rockatansky.
Supergirl never feels like a woman shaped by her own experiences. She feels like a male screenplay that had the pronouns changed during a late production meeting.
Imagine Wonder #Woman behaving like Tony Stark after six vodkas. It would not make her stronger. It would simply make her less interesting.
Ironically, the film already had a better idea.
The opening scenes suggest a story aimed at young women. Something messy. Something emotional. Something loud and unapologetic. A superhero movie with safety pins, broken hearts, and teenage anger. A cosmic punk fairy tale.
Instead, the movie retreats into familiar territory. Flashbacks explain everything. A #sidekick exists only to ask questions. The #plot revolves around a simple antidote hunt stretched far beyond its natural limits. Every few minutes someone gets captured, poisoned, or interrupted so another memory can play.
#JasonMomoa 's #Lobo appears and almost steals the film. He has attitude. He has energy. He also looks strangely cheap, as if his costume budget disappeared into another dimension. Watching him ride around feels less like meeting the Main Man and more like seeing a convention cosplayer who won second place.
#JamesGunn 's fingerprints are everywhere. The rotating action shots return. The needle drops return. The quirky space creatures return. At this point these tricks feel less like style and more like a magician repeating the same card trick because the audience applauded three years ago.
None of this makes Supergirl terrible.
It is watchable.
It is occasionally fun.
It expands the DC universe in interesting ways.
But it never becomes its own film.
And that is perhaps the saddest part.
Supergirl can fly faster than light. Yet this movie keeps her trapped in someone else's orbit.
By the end, she is not a symbol of feminine strength. She is not a #punk icon. She is not even a fully realized character.
She is a collection of borrowed gestures.
A Superman cover band wearing Doc Martens.
And that simply isn't super enough.
