Milly Alcock delivers a raw, emotionally layered performance as broken-down Supergirl Kara Zor-El, whose grief over Krypton’s fall and her mother’s dying wish to “be good” fuels her self-destructive spiral—complete with red sun trips and booze. While her cousin Superman survives, Kara’s trauma is real, and her reluctant heroism ignites when Krem poisons her dog Krypto. The film’s gritty, Mad Max-inspired visuals and indie-punk soundtrack set a moody tone, but shaky action choreography and a dull aesthetic undercut its ambition. Jason Momoa’s chaotic Lobo steals scenes, while Krem’s underwhelming menace weakens the stakes—making this a visually bold but technically flawed take on a fractured hero.
