Supergirl (2026)

What earned the score

• Female Lead Portrayed as Preachy Girlboss

  The film centers on Kara (Supergirl) as the sole female protagonist, and the commentary criticizes the narrative for making her leadership feel preachy while depicting men as inferior or antagonistic, framing male characters as bashing targets.

• Imperfect Female Hero Contrast

  Supergirl is depicted as a jaded, hard-drinking anti-hero whose cynical worldview is explicitly contrasted with Superman's optimism, presenting a female superhero who is flawed and morally ambiguous rather than traditionally heroic.

• Diverse Casting of Supporting Character

  The character Ruthye is portrayed by non-white actress Eve Ridley in a supporting role as a vengeance-seeking girl, contributing to the film's diverse casting.

  A young woman wakes up in bed and we see her bare legs to the upper thighs when she pulls the covers back.

  HEAVILY implied sex slavery.

• Violence Moderate

  A dog is shot with a poisoned arrow.

  Frequent action violence including stabbings.

  Off screen references to sexual violence and abuse of girls.

  There are flashbacks of Krypton's destruction. The scenes show the horrors Kara survived before going to space, including what appears to be a Kryptonian funeral.

  A character is stabbed in the stomach, then has his neck slashed.

  Lobo decapitates a bad guy but it is almost entirely offscreen. You see him slash, hear the guy die, then he quickly puts the head in a bag.

• Frightening Scenes Mild

  Very dark, bleak tone throughout the film.

  It is heavily implied that a group of villains are kidnapping and buying girls with the intention of non-consensually "breeding" with them.

  Characters fall from heights, are involved in vehicle crashes and escape from explosions and fire.
