IR Film Review: SUPERGIRL [Warner Bros.]

"Supergirl" hasn’t been attempted in a while...and rightly so in some ways because it has to get the tone right. With Milly Alcock, they have cast completely right but somehow the story doesn’t quite feel up to snuff and the villain a little too eccentric. There are moments when it really locks in like when Kara at one point jumps into orbit off a dying planet. Her devil may care attitude works well. The story is about helping Krypto so that does make sense. But the adjoining story of a little girl who needs help and the bad villain Krem (played by a well hidden Mathew Schoenaerts) doesn’t quite hit right.
