I See the Truth.
Review written by Jack Aling
Supergirl is directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira.
When an unexpected and ruthless adversary strikes too close to home, Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl, reluctantly joins forces with an unlikely companion on an epic, interstellar journey of vengeance and justice.
After a promising start for the newly revamped DC Studios, Supergirl plays things surprisingly safe as the 'difficult second album.' For a film that embodies such a rebellious spirit, it quickly blends in with quippy needle-drop action comedies that we've seen time and time again. All of the elements are confident, but the final product feels wildly forgettable.
Milly Alcock is a strong lead, and the scenes on Argo City prove that she has the range to embody the cosmic character. Despite this being her solo film, I hope she gets more chances to show the range of the character and her performance in future DC instalments.
DC still has a long way to go to prove itself and stand tall alongside its opposition. With the next film planned as… a standalone Clayface body horror… You've got to give them props for trying.
