Siskel & Ebert - Supergirl (1984)

Siskel and Ebert reviews a superhero film "Supergirl", starring Helen Slater, Peter O'Toole and Faye Dunaway in November 21, 1984. It is based on the DC Comics character of the same name, and it is a spin-off to the first three "Superman" movies. Both of them hated this movie because they found it to be a Superman rip-off with mediocre special effects, a ridiculous plot holes, and terrible acting. They considered in as one of the worst superhero movies in history. But I really disagreed with Gene and Roger, and I think they were really too hard on it. I really liked it a whole lot. I thought it was so entertaining and a lot of fun. The special effects was improvement, the story was well-told, the love interest was sweet, the music score by Jerry Goldsmith was extraordinary, and I actually adore Helen Slater with her performance of Supergirl. It was a huge failure, but it was a very exciting film. Sorry, Gene and Roger, but it was very great film. A marginal thumbs up for me "Supergirl".

Supergirl (1984) 3.5/4 👍👍👍
