In Theaters: ***^ Supergirl (2026)

 There is lots to say about Super Girl in the media, most of it bad, (based on what Milly Alcock said rather than the show) but the movie is really pretty good.  There is the underlining theme of men vs women and they talk of why Clark Kent is Superman and Kara is Supergirl.  Supergirl (Milly Alcock) is having some kind of life crisis; and goes to a world where there is no yellow sun, so her powers are inert.  Krem (Matthias Schoenaerts) and his villains steal Kara's space ship.  They also poison Super Dog and Supergirl has only three days to get the antidote from Krem.  Kara is in pursuit on public transportation with Ruthye (Eve Ridley) tagging along as she wants to kill Krem for killing her parents and brother.  The public transportation ship is robbed, and only after the kick Supergirl off the ship does she get close enough for her powers to be restored.  They then chase the bad guys.  Lobo (Jason Mamoa), a bounty hunter, is also in pursuit of Krem and his men.  This leads to a big confrontation.  There are also several smaller confrontations on the way.  Krem's business is stealing women and selling them for breeding.  Supergirl has to rescue the women several times.  Supergirl convinces Ruthye not to kill Krem when she has the chance.  She worries it will ruin her spirit.  After her adventures she returns to Earth to settle down and visits Superman ((David Corenswet) with her dog.  

At the Movies: ****Superman 2025

 David Corenswet stars as Superman in this version of the franchise.  Lex Luther (Nicholas Hoult) provides the villain and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) the love interest.  Luther has a secret weapon.  Somehow he has cloned Superman, and so he has a genetic equal, and then with his coaching he has made a Superman one+.  However on Superman's side he has a crazy dog, with super powers.

The most important information comes to light when Lex Luthor breaks into Superman's lair.  They not only break all the robots, take the dog prisoner; but they also access the message from Superman's parents that Superman was to be a god.  The message was corrupted so Superman never heard that part of the message.

Luthor uses this information to have Superman arrested.  He then puts him with a being (Anthony Carrigan) that can replicate kryptonite which he does causing Superman to lose his powers.  But Luther goes too far when he murders a man in front of Superman and this being.  Luthor is holding the beings baby hostage.  He turns off the kryptonite and provides light to help Superman restore himself.  Then Superman rescues the baby and we are off to the races. 

In the meantime Lois Lane has recruited Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi) of the Green Lantern group which also includes Green Lantern (Nathan Fillion) and Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced).   Luthor has been making worm holes throughout the universe, for which he ultimately pays a big price.  He rips a tear in the fabric of the universe which threatens earth.  Superman attends to this while the Green Lantern group confront a military country that has been working with Luthor.  Superman also attends to Luthor.  It is the dog that destroys all the drones that let Luthor see the action so he can tell his clone what to do.

I think the relationship between Clark Kent/Superman is what makes this movie click in the end.  At the end they are sneaking off for an "interview" giving themselves a chance to kiss.  Fun stuff.  I am into all things superhero.
