Supergirl Ratings & Reviews
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Randy A. Salas
Supergirl is no cinema classic, mostly because half the cast plays it straight while the rest go for camp.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Denby
The movie has terrible schlocky effects -- red whirlpools and flying plastic -- but it's consistently funny.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
Screenwriter David Odell and Director Jeannot Szwarc concentrate on strong, simple pleasures.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
Producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind insist on lots of flight time, but it doesn't matter much, balanced out as it is with socko action comedy.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Harper Barnes
By now, we have seen it all before, and done much better, too.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
The special effects are neither particularly special nor effective.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Supergirl isn't awful, just disappointing. It succeeds in small ways.
Newsday
Leo Seligsohn
The movie is too long and a lot of the nonsense is pointless.
New York Daily News
Kathleen Carroll
It's lively escapist fun.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Bob Lundegaard
It has a second-rate feel to it.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Writer David Odell's dialogue has lots of sparkle, and director Jeannot Szwarc never goes over the edge.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Anne Marie Biondo
Supergirl is played with a tolerable amount of vulnerability by newcomer 19-year-old Helen Slater.
Detroit Free Press
Bob McKelvey
It's Slater's aura of innocence that brings "Supergirl" to life.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
As lackluster as the "Supergirl" script may be, equally disappointing is the film's physical production.
Boston Globe
Michael Blowen
"Supergirl" doesn't fly.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Scott Cain
The film works largely on the basis of humor and the clash of wills.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
"Supergirl" is mostly fly-weight fun.
Arizona Republic
Marsha McCreadie
Slater is bland instead of bold and trembly where she should be tender.
Arizona Republic
Bart Bull
This is the cheapest-looking of any of the Superwhichever movies.
USA Today
USA Today Staff
It's tough sitting through any film in which Jimmy Olsen isn't even the least exciting male.
