Watched Supergirl.. It's quiet well made film, so production team is amazing.
Performance is actually alright. "Ruthye" (the companion of Supergirl) has a bit "acty" performance, but it works in the movie.
The Supergirl doesn't have much feminism to her. Men are scary, dumb and violent - visibly a female writer. One or two balls punches. A trans actor/actress looking man. Few space lesbians (just for gags reference to 3 women pirates). All that is "modern" culture that doesn't have any class to it and wants to "diversify", so definitely not a story of the century that stands on any common morals. Starting from Kansas and without alcohol would be the safest bet.
So some things are less serious. The acting is fair for kids 10-18 (a "family" movie story), while the alcoholic personality was 16+ and not a good example and carried on throughout the first half of the film to some degree. Being under the influence with dry humour was somewhat of a theme.
Lobo (played by Jason Momoa) is there to add more dry humour. Which reminds of Thor Ragnarok type of "comedy" which breaks the story immersion - making light of seriousness or empathy. But in a way good to see good cast supporting the screen.
I wouldn't call Supergirl movie a failure, but lack of introduction to her as an actress, and trailers of a rude alcoholic with bad attitude was - all the impression that she got from the internet.
It shows that perception changes based on so little.
With $100 million invested in production, the film doesn't hold back on effects to support the story, so the movie is top class production with a bit of unwanted experimentation and undeserved hate for Milly Alcock.
6.6 star rating I think is on point. They tried to tick off all the checkboxes in 1h 30m, and the story felt a bit rushed, but also didn't slow down for any drama as any other Marvel movie.
Anyway, worth a late night watch. It's not Snow White type of movie as the social media painted it to be.
