This movie from 1984 is the motion picture cousin to Superman. Helen Slater and Faye Dunaway are good in a pretty campy flick. In my opinion the TV series is a more serious telling of the story of Kara Zor El from Krypton. Slater is s good actress and they could have done a better movie at the time.

I agree completely. I had forgotten about that movie until I saw the poster here. I do like the series but since they went to the CW and are filming here in Vancouver, they are losing Calista Flockhart. I love that they are filming in my back yard (with at least a half dozen other TV series) but Calista didn’t want to be too far from hubby Harrison Ford. The new dynamics are interesting so I am giving it an open mind.
