• It was… fine. The action scenes were pretty dull, though. Seemed a strange choice for a second movie. If you’re gonna have Supergirl as your second movie it really has to knock it out of the park. I mean guardians was after like 8 MCU movies or something.

    I like all that. Really liked what she did to that one jackass at the end— made me like her a bit more.

    Did not like dog being hurt, dog being left, dog almost dying. Did not like! 😭

    Edit: omg I just realized why the Cons hated this movie! It’s in the second line of the OP’s post.

      Her suit also included shorts under her skirt. SHORTS! Isn’t that outrageous? How are they supposed to get pantyshots now?! /S

      This one time I got too high and sat down to watch an entire season of Krypton. I think I was about 2/3 through the season before I realized I hadn’t seen Krypto yet inn a series about him… I giggled and continued watching. Anywho, I totally agree they should option Krypto!

    Except the dog was poisoned and sad. It wasn’t “awww doggie” it was “awww sad doggie.” Also Supergirl didn’t have her powers for like 3/4ths of the movie (due to her character’s own stupidity). Like they couldn’t write a decent story if she had powers.

      23-year-old with abandonment and self-worth issues behaves less than reasonably, more at 11.

        It’s a general complaint I have about some of the mainstream attempts at Superman. “We’ve got to make him/her weaker.” Is a common theme that has been done way too many times. Because in these people’s minds, there is nothing interesting that can happen if Superman/Supergirl actually has their powers and wins. The drama, for these non-Superman fans writing the script, is in the hero losing their powers. They don’t actually understand what’s appealing about Superman in the first place.

          I know what you’re talking about but here it’s rooted in actual character development. Nobody took her powers away, she wasn’t taking care of herself, was reckless, and suffered the consequences. Sure at some point there was Kryptonite involved but even that could’ve been avoided if she had been more level-headed and less self-destructive.

            I would like to see a situation that cannot be solved by strength alone. It feels like lazy writing to take that strength away. Kryptonite as a plot device is kinda old. But if you use it for a few seconds here or there, like Superman (2025) that’s great. What I definitely do not want is a movie about Superman without his powers. Powerless for a situation? Yes! Powerless for 75% of the movie? No!

              Good, because this movie isn’t about either Superman without his powers or Supergirl without her powers. It’s about a very young adult sabotaging herself because of her pain and overcoming her self-imposed restrictions to save others.

    And Lobo wasn’t that cool anyways.

        Im conflicted,

        if that waste of breath sorbo is disappointed, that would normally indicate it was doing something right.
