Supergirl- the most overblown media panning campaign ever.
Going into this film, from the people here and some of the reviews- you’d expect a catastrophic disaster on the scale of Catwoman.
Its not that, its a perfectly serviceble film on the scale of Superman(2025) and Wonder Woman(2017). The reviews from critics are baffling to me.
It has its issues like those films have their issues- mostly it feels like a high end back door pilot for a tv show and less of a stand alone Supergirl film- it’s too entrenched in Superman and his lore to be its own complete spinoff film as it expands on Krypton and his interactions with Supergirl.
Its script is fine, it’s very much on par with its predecessor. The only thing worse is its song choices as the music just isn’t memorable and doesn’t have a moment like “punkrocker”.
If you’ve seen the trailer, you know what you’re in for and it shouldn’t be a shock. it’s colour grading is the exact same as Superman except it’s been inverted for warm tones instead of cool, neither are particularly colourful.
