Supergirl opened June 24 and your group chat already has an opinion. Here is what the numbers actually say.
Critics gave it 57 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences gave it 77. The gap tells you something. The universal bright spot in every review, positive and negative, is Milly Alcock. Rotten Tomatoes editorial called her performance superb. She carries the grief and the swagger in a movie that critics say does not always carry itself.
Craig Gillespie directed I, Tonya. He knows how to put a performance at the center of a messy film. Watch that one before you go.
If you watched House of the Dragon for Rhaenyra, you already know she can do this. Supergirl gives her the room.
She is better than the movie she is in. That is exactly the kind of thing worth seeing.
