Reaction: Wonder Woman didn't hold the record for LRF's highest grossing female-led superhero film for very long, with Supergirl now taking that title over.
"While not as strong as his Superman films, this John Malone-penned film is still an above average superhero adventure. Chloe Grace Moretz oozes charm in the role as the alien trying to find her way on Earth, and Skyler Gisondo was surprisingly likable as her love interest. I could have used a bit more action, but the action there is works nicely." - Brenton Smalls, Playboy
"The ending felt slightly rushed, like it could have gone on longer. Kara as a character was good without being great. I was expecting a little bit more from John Malone considering his success with the Superman films, but overall they are different characters. The family angle was an interesting one and I felt Sean Penn's performance was good as Zor-El albeit underutilized. Aronofsky was a great hand behind the camera, and all story beats seem to work together. A fun watch, for all you superhero and non-superhero fans alike." - Terry Setev, The Bateau Gazette
"Maybe John Malone and company spoiled us too much with his fantastic Superman films. This spin-off lacked the huge action sequences tight plotting of those films. Maybe John Malone did the best he could with the character and there just isn't as much to do with someone like Supergirl. I'm not sure. Based on the talent behind the scenes, it is obviously a competent film, but it just doesn't reach the greatness expected." - Cal Crowe, Washington Globe
