Next up in this revisited review series leading up to the new Superman film, we take a look at the first ever female led superhero film and the attempted failed spinoff franchise at the goddess of Krypton herself. Considering the fact that I am not the biggest fan of this when I first saw this, I decided to give it a new look with the international cut and see if it gets better or if I still hate it. Join Joshua as he goes into his updated thoughts on Supergirl (1984).
