'Supergirl' Rotten Tomatoes Score Revealed

With early fan screenings starting, the critical embargo for Supergirl was lifted and the first reviews appeared on Rotten Tomatoes. The film currently holds a 62% rating based on 86 reviews; the score began in the rotten range but rose as several positive reactions were added.

Critics remain divided. Many negative reviews single out Ana Nogueira's script for an inconsistent tonal balance and an overload of ideas, with DiscussingFilm saying the screenplay "prefers to sheepishly flirt with all these tones rather than balancing them." One consistent bright spot is Milly Alcock's performance, which most reviews praise.

MovieWeb's own review called her "fantastic, and every pathetic internet troll who unfairly criticized her without seeing the movie first needs to eat crow." Though Supergirl has not matched the critical acclaim of James Gunn's Superman, it is viewed as a serviceable entry that helps keep the DCU on course, with Craig Gillespie and Ana Nogueira delivering a commendable effort.
