Supergirl

I didn't hate it hate it, but it wasn't great either. Some gripes were:  Why take that visually stunning source material, and make it brown . Lobo was 100% shoehorned in. Had no proper place in the movie. The songs felt out of place. The movie also suffered a bit from "how do we depower Superman Supergirl this time". The big moments and character developments felt a bit unearned. I feel like Kara wasn't treating the time pressure with as much urgency as she should. She didn't wear the suit until right at the end. Big nono. When you have a corny super suit, it needs to be worn pretty much from the start, to not feel corny. I felt like this suffered a bit from... they had only half adapted Woman of Tomorrow. It was like the writer knew what the big moments were in the comic, but they changed too many things in the movie, so they couldn't quite manage to get to those same moments in a natural way. So many things didn't quite work together or make sense....
