Supergirl Twitter review
Supergirl brings new energy to the DC Universe’s latest theatrical blockbuster directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira. Some viewers felt the film’s main villain lacked depth and failed to leave a lasting impression. Some netizens say that it delivers strong performances but does not fully reach its potential. Even so, most agreed that Milly Alcock remains the film’s biggest strength and carries the story with confidence.
One X user wrote, “Not bad, just bland, predicable & unnecessary. The flashbacks were so abrupt. It should’ve used a linear screenplay”, another tweet reads, “#Supergirl was awful. Gunn is 0-2 as head of the new DCU in my book”, another X user wrote, “I wanted to love #Supergirl, but it felt like missed potential”. Another comment says, “#Supergirl is a disaster. Lacking rhythm, without memorable scenes, horrible action sequences, and an absolute disconnect between the character and the audience”, another X user shared, “ADDING generic action, unnecessary editing and without a doubt the worst villain in all CBM, unfortunately this film will be Super-Forgettable.”
Really wanted to love #Supergirl because of the comic but I felt super-disappointed.
I did enjoy it with these great performances, but ADDING generic action, unnecessary editing and without a doubt the worst villain in all CBM, unfortunately this film will be Super-Forgettable. pic.twitter.com/pJckBidBjx

#Supergirl :⭐⭐½
ORDINARY GIRL
Not bad just bland, predicable & unnecessary
Supergirl is so good when it explores typical Supergirl elements & it’s just dumb when it forces itself to be that #WomenOfTomorrow comic
I’m starting to think of that comic is the problem cuz it… pic.twitter.com/ur6oyw6IFG

#Supergirl was awful. Gunn is 0-2 as head of the new DCU in my book
I still have hope for Clayface cause is rated R and I have faith in Mike Flanagan when it comes to Horror films.
From day one I thought Gunn was the wrong choice for Superman and now maybe the DCU all together

I wanted to love #Supergirl, but it felt like missed potential
Milly is GREAT, but fast pacing doesn’t flesh out her dynamic with Ruthye enough and Krem is a frustratingly weak villain to work around. A fun grungy trip through the galaxy with bizarre decisions holding it back pic.twitter.com/BNoXsArbsy

Where #Supergirl didn’t succeed for me as an action movie, it had me hooked as a character study! This is about an existential crisis and wanting to give up, but there is always something to keep moving for. It was a very emotional journey and I was so here for that! pic.twitter.com/DviGrvNipb

So my initial thoughts on #Supergirl
First, I enjoyed it. It’s a solid/good CBM.
Good:
– Millie Alcock. She IS Supergirl. More please.
– Jason Mamoa IS Lobo. Give him his own movie.
– Big emotional beats
– Excellent action scenes
– David Corenswet is wonderful
– Krypton… pic.twitter.com/Ot2sVmKADL— James Prescott: Superhero & Punk Rocker (@JamesPrescott77) June 25, 2026
About Supergirl
Supergirl is the latest film in the new DC Universe, which was released on June 26, 2026, with Milly Alcock taking on the role of Kara Zor-El. Directed by Craig Gillespie, the film is based on the acclaimed Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic series by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. Unlike previous versions of the character, the movie explores a more emotionally complex and battle-hardened Supergirl as she embarks on a galaxy-spanning journey of revenge and self-discovery.
The cast also includes Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Krumholtz, Emily Beecham, and Jason Momoa as Lobo. The film marks another major chapter in James Gunn, and Peter Safran’s rebooted DC Universe.
