He straight out called her family and invited her to live in his home without hesitation. I loved how Clark immediately accepted Kara into his family. This will perhaps allow Clark to see it was not all bad and allow him to get over his resistance to learning everything about his abilities and heritage.

Clark will teach Kara to be a hero while she will teach him what it really means to be a Kryptonian. Not the one sided view presented to him by the program in the Fortress which is obviously lacking any emotional context. Kara can teach him to fly and about the real Krypton. Clark has the experience using his powers for good and knows how and when to use them. Still, I like it now that they have it set up so they both will learn from each other. I thought that her character would be the mentor to Clark which is a bit off the normal relationship between the two characters in past versions and not an idea I was totally comfortable with. Knowing Kara could fly made me worry a bit. Clark teaching Kara to focus her hearing was a great scene. Of course there was a lot more to like here. The highlight of this episode and a moment that makes a viewer cheer. It was an awesome display of superhero bravery that proved to us her true self. She might talk like she does not care much for humans but she flew up and flack jacketed a nuclear bomb without hesitation or worry for her own safety. I love how Kara has Clark's hero heart even without really knowing it. Laura Vandervoort did a great job bringing that presence out in her performance this week much the same as Helen Slater did all those years ago. The 'post Crisis' Kara is not so much the goody goody that the Silver Age Kara Helen Slater played was but I still think the heart of the character is the same.

Now it is only fair to say that Laura Vandervoort will have a different Kara to present. Everything from the way she talked, walked, flew, and simply the presence she had on screen was perfect.

In what was honestly a not so great movie Helen Slater made it watchable simply because she nailed the character so well. She has the look and bearings of a superhero and presents herself with charm and an inner strength which is exactly what the character needs.Īnyone who has seen the Supergirl movie with Helen Slater will know what I mean about making the character of Supergirl work. Laura Vandervoort does a great job as Kara Zor-El. Kara seems like she will be a great addition to the show and so far I really like how they are using her character. It was a predictable tale knowing who the 'mysterious' blonde was already and being familiar with the current version of Supergirl in the comics but it was still very enjoyable. a villain but we did get some serious action with Clark and Kara. This week did not have much in the way of Clark vs. I was worried that after last week's FX bonanza we would get a couple of weeks with little to no super action but boy was I wrong.
