It's Mostly Men Who Hate Supergirl

I noticed the bad reviews about Supergirl early on. I ignored them though. I prefer to make up my own mind. We still went to watch. 

I also noticed it was mainly men giving those poor reviews.

They would criticize Milly Alcock's (who plays Supergirl) looks, naturally. I noticed most of the folks doing this weren't much to look at. Maybe they have their own issues and are projecting it onto Milly. I'm not sure. All I know is Milly is a beautiful woman. Dean Cain, who played Superman back in the day, also joined in to make fun of Milly. They've been posting things like this:

Other reasons why men aren't liking the flick?

Dudes claimed there was no way she could defeat "strong men." Hello, she has powers. Yes, she certainly can. 

They hated the soundtrack. It didn't bother me. 

They didn't like Supergirl's attitude. She didn't have that demure thing going on men tend to enjoy. She's not helpless. She doesn't rely on a man, ever. 

They didn't like that she barely smiles. Heaven forbid. I hate when a man tells me to smile more. 

They didn't like that men barely get any screen time. (Hello? It's called SUPERGIRL.)

There is no love interest. I personally liked this. I hate when movies toss in a love story for good measure. It's ridiculous. 

Basically, it's the men who are whining about the most ridiculous things. They did it for Wonder Woman as well, plus any other female-led movies. 

So what did we think? We liked the movie. Milly was incredible in her role. She did kick butt. Without the help of a man. 

It's a reminder that you do not need a guy to save you. A reminder never to listen to those who will try and say women are the weaker sex. A reminder to laugh when someone tries to say you must submit to a guy. 

Remember, ladies. 

You never need a guy to succeed. 

I look forward to seeing Milly in the future Superman film and one day, perhaps, she'll have her own movie again. And when she does, we'll be there to watch.
