Supergirl. 1984

Helen Slater In her first feature film role as Kara-El from Argo City who comes to Earth to find a orb that may help save her kingdom and does battle with a witch Faye Dunaway. Peter Cook joins the cast as a high school teacher and warlock who wants to co-rule the world and fails, he does bring some of his humour with sarcasm but isn't really bringing his full comedy. Peter O'Toole plays the founder of Argo who seems to start off straight faced and next time we see him he looks drunk as a skunk.

I never read any of the comics and do wonder if Supergirl battled a witch and how did Selina know about the Phantom Zone? Back in the day the effects were probably decently done and seem daft nowadays but they are more believable than the CGI we get. Originally through people talking about this film the story was to take a different turn with brainiac if Christopher Reeve was to make a appearance but we do see a picture of him as the Man Of Steel. Still helps to pass some time away.
