Running Time: 108 Minutes

The 2026 movie version of Supergirl indubitably disappointed me, but not in a way that made me super-duper angry. More like in a way that made me go, “Oh, well. You live and you learn.” At least she had pretty good taste in music. And I’m certainly glad I saw it in a theater despite the disappointment. Which in a way is its own sort of superpower, don’t ya think? Really makes you think, huh.
