    It's alright. I wouldn't say I like or dislike it.

    I seem to be somewhat in this camp.

    It's been a while since I saw it (I saw it back when it was originally in movie theatres) and I seem to remember that Helen Slater did a good job as Kara, but the parts played by Faye Dunaway and Brenda Vaccaro were more from the 1966 Batman TV show school of overly-campy villain acting.

    It was fine. I did like Helen Slater and I really liked the score by Jerry Goldsmith.

    Helen Slater was fantastic in the movie. she has so many great pieces of dialogue and her whole demeanor is a very apparent offset to Superman; she captured exactly how I read Kara in the comics.

    Yea that why faye dunaway got the golden raspberry nomination and helen Slater won the Saturn award for best actress.. but I agree faye was not a highlight in the movie. ( even though shes a witch with a love potion plot)

    It was bad, but teenage me thought Helen Slater was dreamy. She deserved better, IMO.

    I thought it was fun if you don't take it too seriously.

    There was a scene where Supergirl was flying slowly through some trees and it was clearly Helen Slater in a harness. I was so mesmerized that words could not have described it. It was a majestic scene in many ways.

    There are people who say the one thing the Superman movies got right was casting Chris Reeve as Superman. I would say that, if they did nothing else right, they cast Helen Slater as Supergirl. She almost singlehandedly makes the movie worth watching.
