But it's fallen into the hands of an amateur witch named Selena--who intends to use it to rule the world!

"...Enjoyable....Dunaway has a ball as Selena....[Slater is] a find...She's an appealing young heroine..." 07/18/1984DVD Verdict 8 of 10
To my mind, the one big thing about this movie is that it never pretends to be anything other than what it really is. With very little darkness to be found or deep thoughts to be pondered, Supergirl is a fun ride, pure and simple. Sure, sometimes it borders on camp but that is part of its charm as well. For those of you that have never seen Supergirl, I would certainly suggest a rental the first time out. - Harold Gervais
