Early reactions to a test screening of the upcoming Supergirl movie have been good. As the next big film in the DC Universe after Superman, expectations for the movie are high.
The new movie will focus on Milly Alcock as the main character, building on her short appearance in James Gunn’s previous film. It will delve into her history, promising a much darker story than the one we know about Superman’s childhood.
Supergirl test screenings suggest another great DCU outing
I’m really excited about the Supergirl movie! The industry’s Daniel RPK just posted on X that another test screening happened, and he’s hearing the same thing as before – it’s REALLY good. He actually said that back in December too, so it seems like the positive buzz is consistent. I’m getting more and more hopeful for this film!
Another insider, Axel, shared more details about how people reacted to the test screenings. According to his source, the movie’s visuals were better than those in the recent Superman film. They particularly praised a hallway scene, comparing its action to sequences in Daredevil and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The source also said the film struck a great balance between funny, serious, and heartwarming moments.
According to the source, the movie has a significantly darker and more serious feel than previous Superman films. The story deals with heavy themes like human trafficking and features a lot of violence.
The reviewer particularly praised Matthias Schoenaerts’ portrayal of Krem of the Yellow Hills, calling him a powerfully intimidating and impressive villain. They also highlighted Jason Momoa’s character, Lobo, as crucial to the film’s conclusion.
Another insider, Cryptic4KQual, confirmed Axel’s report about the movie, stating it seemed accurate. However, his sources weren’t impressed with Krem, describing him as unexciting or disappointing.
According to another online post, the movie seems to be a blend of several popular titles – Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Superman, Logan, Man of Steel, and HBO’s The Last of Us – but toned down for a broader audience. The source compared specific characters, saying that Krypto resembles Rocket, and Kara shares traits with Joel or Logan.
I’ve been following the early buzz on Supergirl, and it sounds really promising! I saw a post from someone called The Moonlight Warrior who said a bunch of people from SAG thought the movie was amazing. Then, someone else chimed in saying they knew someone who actually went to a screening. Apparently, that person said the reception was super positive and they think it’s going to do really well when it hits theaters. It’s getting me excited!
