Summary
During the destruction of Krypton, Zoe-El and his wife Alura evacuate for Argo City, where Zor-El activates a force field.
Eight years later, Alura gives birth to Kara, but later succumbs to radiation produced by a mineral known as Kryptonite. Zor-El decides to send Kara to Earth who meets her cousin Clark Kent.
While off-world celebrating her 23rd birthday, Kara meets Ruthye, who asks for help to avenge the death of her family at the hands of Brigand leader Krem, but she's not interested.
Krem shows up with his crew of Mad Max rejects and when Krypto tries to stop them stealing Kara's spaceship, he's shot with a poisonous dart.
Learning that beloved mutt only has three days to live, Kara pursues Krem for the antidote he keeps on his person and reluctantly takes Ruthye with her.
Lots of pain and suffering
Sure the 1984 Helen Slater film was campy trash, but at least had charm.
This on the other hand was an unmitigated disaster.
Alcock is based the Woman of Tomorrow comic miniseries, but I bet character is more likable in source material.
Story is nearly as generic as Guardians of the Galaxy-esque action, which is way too dark.
Did they take heavy inspiration from AVP: Requiem?
Aquaman as Czarnian bounty hunter was fun, but Schonaerts is the WORST fucking villain I have ever seen.
Man of Tomorrow is next, and I honestly 'can' wait.
