3 Days: briefly; we meet Kara Zor-El/Supergirl [Milly Alcock:] it is her 23rd birthday and she was having a good time until things turned sideways, she now has 3 days to save her dog Krypto, simultaneously she picks up an unwanted companion;  Ruthye Marye Knoll [Eve Ridley:] she is seeking revenge against those that have killed her entire family and at some point or another we get to meet Lobo [Jason Momoa:] he is an alien mercenary and bounty hunter, that sometimes likes to crack jokes

Generally speaking: the storyline/script, character developments, framework and pacing of this 108 minutes film; are those outdated, formulaic origin scripts that Marvel used to do; Cough, Cough; Guardians of the Galaxy 2014... Who said that? But the problem is it is no longer 2000s or/and 2010s [this will not be the only time I make reference to these decades,] the only reason that this works here is because we haven't seen Supergirl in a standalone film title since 1984; but hypothetically if they were to try this again in the future with a reboot or a sequel or anything; they are not going to be so fortunate, basically you get one time to do this kind of storyline/script and the other surrounding elements and that is it.

Art, comedy and action; the outer-space/planets, landscapes, set designs, costumes and/or little creatures/characters; this is all things I can work with; they are all highly engaging detailed in their own unique ways; I like the comedy as it relates to Zor-El/Supergirl: giving these characters the opportunity to opt out of this impending rumble and the bus sequence was lots of good fun, but for the love of god, can you get the message that it is no longer the 2000s or the 2010s anymore, because towards the end of this movie we have a lot of quick moving action with slow motion effects and that kind of garbage and whilst I'm on the subject whomever did the line/lines for Zor-El/Supergirl's eye beans, how about next time you don't make them look so tacky, maybe just maybe on some occasions you may have wanted to use a ruler, but seriously these fast moving/slow motion sequence are outdated and lazy, especially when we are going on underneath to overhead, you may think that these are still edgy and cool, but they are as thrilling, but in reality they are as thrilling/potent as an 80-year-old man with retinal dysfunction and a low sperm count as well

Character developments, performances, comedy and voice performances; likewise what I said about the script from the aspect of; these components here are very formulaic; paint by numbers that kind of thing, which from the trio of performers that I have already referenced in the opening section really do try to do their best with what has been given to them; it doesn't give them much space to implement themselves on their roles other than Momoa as Lobo: he was born to play this role and he embodies Lobo, I would really like to make reference to some of his comedy, but I can't because of its mature to adult themes, but I can say this; even though he isn't a lot in this film, when he appears he makes a big impact and briefly because this is not his film, I really cannot stomach David Corenswet as Kal-El/Clark Kent/Superman; he is the cousin of Zor-El/Supergirl; I mean from the outset I was never keen on him anyway, but after seeing him briefly throughout this film... Just no more thank you, but if or when we see another project could we have these trio of characters and their performers back please and the little bits and pieces of voice performance we do get is good as well.

This film receives: 8/10, this film is excellent; as this film goers it has comfortably enough to get given this mark and full disclosure I missed about maybe 15 minutes simply because I really had to go to the bathroom, but I am not an idiot, this film does have many god dammit so many problems surrounding it on one level or another that I can't fully discuss them all here, so I will be doing another piece of content to be dropped linked the bottom of this content on its completion and going live. This film also has some awards accredited to its name such as 2 Nominees; Golden Trailer Awards 2026 Golden Trailer Award Best Summer 2026 Blockbuster Trailer Rise, Warner Bros., Mark Woollen & Associates/AV Squad
