I HAVE SEEN. SUPERGIRL.
It's real good, folks.
Brief, spoiler-y thoughts below!
Best scenes in the movie, IMO, are the Argo flashbacks. Closest to the source material of the original comic, and really emotionally affecting. I love that they kept those sequences in Kryptonian (Kryptonese? One is spoken, one is read, and I can never remember which is which XD) as it really helps establish that this was a place that had its own people, its own culture, and it was all lost.
CANNOT BELIEVE WE HAVE DOME CITY OF ARGO ON THE BIG SCREEN. THAT'S RAD.
As a big fan of Woman of Tomorrow, do I wish they had used more of the beautiful visuals from the book? Admittedly yes. Personally I think it's more accurate to say this movie is inspired by the book, not necessarily a faithful adaptation.
That said! My main concern going in was the relationship between Kara and Ruthye, like. You gotta nail that for the story to work.
And I think they did! Great casting and acting. Milly Alcock and Eve Ridley are phenomenal.
Lobo is. Fine. XD
As a Supergirl fan I give the movie a 9/10; as a Woman of Tomorrow fan I give it a 7.95/10.
There is one objectively bad thing about the film and it is the final needle drop. Ruins an otherwise brilliant scene.
BONUS DISCUSSION I HAD WITH MY BUDDY, WHO DOES NOT READ COMICS:
Friend: Did you like it? Me: Yeah, I like the comic better but it was really good! But like. I do have to tell you...They removed Comet the Space Horse. Friend: There's a space horse? Me: Yeah and Kara dated him briefly. Friend: ...Sarah what do you mean. Me: Exactly what I said, unfortunately.
