how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score — the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.
Nobody has rated this on FlickFeel yet. This is public discussion of this title, read into a curve. It is not a rating and it never becomes one.
Read from 111 comments (71 from Reddit, 31 from Metacritic, 9 from TMDB reviews) — 27 of them described how it moves.
💀 flatline — One note, start to finish. Hard going most of the way through. Very little of it ever resolves.

“a very poor cover of Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle" in the final battle and it brings down the already tired sequence.”

“The worst part is that they shortchange the whole "don't kill Krem" thing. The book gives you so much insight into why Kara might and might not kill Krem. How she is filled with rage and sadness and pathos. Here it's just "don't do it ruthye. Just because"”

“Kara had to have her suit for the final act, so how do we get it to her? Have Ruthye bring it. Why would she bring it? She had no connection to it. No reason. So it wasn't earned.”

“Completely fumbled the third act. There should be a law against using kryptonite more than once per film as a plot device. The goalpost kept shifting - there is no payoff whatsoever.”

“"Any day now." is far and away the most powerful moment in the film. It perfectly established that there's a storm going on in her head, but that she remains hopeful.”

“Plus the flow of the movie just feels weird. Its very repetitive how it keeps having Kara conveniently get weakened before a fight lol.”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Ultimately, Supergirl is a story of dealing with loss and managing grief. It’s a movie that reminds us to celebrate what we have instead of wasting energy mourning what we’ve lost. Loss is emotional kryptonite we all share, and it’s clear that Supergirl, despite all her incredible power, also feels it.”
John Kirk, Original-Cin · 91
“Despite these flaws, Supergirl is a fantastic film and one that solidifies the newly rebooted DCU's strength as a franchise. It also signals that Gunn can be a bit more hands-off with a project without any drop in quality. Supergirl is as effervescent and colorful as Superman, but offers a cosmic twist that sheds away the extra baggage that comes with centering a story on Earth and takes the opportunity to truly develop this new version of the character.”
Therese Lacson, Collider · 80
“Supergirl isn’t a regrettably bad outing or a sharp downward turn for the DCU experiment. It just lacks the ambitious, oversized verve of Gunn’s Superman, much less his other superhero work.”
Tasha Robinson, Polygon · 76
“Alcock, tasked with playing a character that might strike some as “unlikable,” instead finds both the very human dimension and the out-of-this-world charisma necessary to make Kara worth rooting for.”
Kate Erbland, IndieWire · 75
“The movie’s visual sensibility signals Supergirl’s broader success in threading the needle between a kid-friendly, hope-suffused superhero story and bleaker, grittier stuff—and in doing so, recognizing how those aspects of life are often interwoven, rather than diametrically opposed approaches to IP. That’s always been the push-pull of the Supergirl character, equally able to be portrayed as Superman’s gee-whiz kid-sister equivalent and his more jaded, literally alienated reflection. The joy of Supergirl is how it mixes the two without demoting its main gal to a sideshow.”

“Supergirl is another major disappointment from the new DC universe. I did not like Superman, and this film does little to restore my confidence in the direction the franchise has chosen. There are moments when it appears ready to recover, find genuine emotion or become something more interesting, but every time it comes close, it falls **** frustrating part is that not everything is bad. Milly **** is very good as Kara Zor-El. She has charisma, presence and a mixture of toughness, sadness and an”

“A frustrating mess of a movie that never figures out what it wants to be or who it’s for. The story is paper‑thin and strangely unfocused, drifting from one generic fight scene to the next without any real emotional weight or clear narrative purpose.”

“When one watches a movie and leaves the theater wondering who the picture was supposed to be made for, it doesn’t bode well for the film. Unfortunately, that’s very much the case for one of this summer’s most anticipated blockbusters, the latest effort from director Craig Gillespie. So why the confusion over the target audience? It’s simple: this action-adventure superhero release is all over the map, an offering that decidedly feels like it was put together by committee (and probably a marketin”
