Still, not every reaction was overwhelmingly positive about the project. Mama’s Geeky’s Tessa Smith labeled Supergirl “a mixed bag,” explaining that “some adaptation choices and a bland villain keep it from greatness.”

DCU Brief similarly noted the “villain being simpler, and scale being smaller but sharper.” They nonetheless called the film “bold, fresh and lively” with “stylish needledrops and hyperfast action.”
