Initial reactions to a recent test screening of Supergirl indicate the film didn’t exactly wow audiences, but it wasn’t considered a total failure either.
Early reactions to the film, shared on X by Cryptic HD QUALITY, were mixed, with some parts being very well-received while others weren’t as strong.
Mixed Reactions From Test Audiences
The film reportedly runs around two hours and five minutes, and reactions described it as uneven.
While certain parts of the film were excellent, the overall experience felt uneven and didn’t quite reach its full potential.
The response wasn’t terrible, but it also didn’t really stand out, and that’s concerning at this stage.
Milly Alcock Praised
One consistent positive from the screening was Milly Alcock’s performance.
People really liked her performance as Kara Zor-El, saying her acting was strong even when the scenes or storylines weren’t always perfect.
This agrees with what leaders at DC Studios have said before, consistently praising Alcock’s performance as a key asset to the movie.
Lobo’s Role
Jason Momoa’s Lobo is confirmed to appear in two fight sequences, but is not the main villain.
Many people found the main villain disappointing, and this was a common complaint in the feedback we received.
Villain problems
One of the film’s main problems is its weak villain, which makes the story’s main conflict less powerful.
Matthias Schoenaerts portrays the villain Krem of the Yellow Hills, and his appearance in the Supergirl trailer differed significantly from how he’s depicted in the original comics.
Concerns Ahead of Release
As a huge movie fan, I know test screenings are super important for getting the rhythm and flow of a film just right. But honestly, if the audience doesn’t really react during those early showings, it’s a bit worrying – especially considering the challenges DC Studios has been facing lately. It makes you hope they can pull it all together!
Okay, so I’m hearing a lot of negativity online about Supergirl already, and honestly, it makes me think the studio might be scrambling to fix things with the story or how the movie feels before it even comes out. They’re probably feeling the heat right now.
Early audience reactions to James Gunn’s Superman film were disappointing, which makes the lukewarm response from test screenings of Supergirl even more concerning, particularly as Gunn’s role leading the DC Universe is being questioned.
Supergirl is currently scheduled to arrive in theaters on June 26, 2026.
Yes, Supergirl had a test screening. Roughly 2 hours 5 mins. From what I heard, Feedback was not that great but it wasn’t a bad film. Some scenes shined alot more than others. Milly is praised for her acting in the role. Lobo has 2 fights. The villain is underwhelming. https://t.co/nBon84s350
