This is one that I recorded and burned to DVD myself as it hasn't been released yet. But I am hoping to see a DVD release of it before too long so I can junk this recording. I enjoyed this first sequel just as much as I did the original movie. It has enough sub-plots to keep the story moving and interesting... while limiting it just enough so that there isn't too much going on. I really enjoyed the main storyline of the guy trying to swindle Grey House from Cassie. Once again Catherine Bell was great as Cassie. The more I see her in the bigger fan I become.

This is the first time I ever seen this film. And I must say... I enjoyed it a lot! I really liked Supergirl in this one. Her being a teen that is having a bit of trouble dealing with her life. It has a very good storyline. Though there is a couple things I didn't care for here. First off I noticed right away... I didn't care for the way they drew Superman. It is more noticeable in some scene then others... but they made his chin too long. Another thing I didn't care too much for is how they re-wrote the origin of Brainiac. But they made the story so good that all is forgiven. I especially liked how the film ended. It even shows that there is a good chance of continuing the storyline. Over-all this is one I highly recommend!

A good first episode considering the age of the series. Strange is the beginning. Jor-El is introduced by the council elder to be a highly regarded scientist who was given the task to look into the seismic activity, but then was ridiculed when he presented his findings, which could easily been verified. And this shortly after the introduction of Krypton having an highly advanced race.
I didn't remember that the origin story was rather elaborate on this. We see Jor-El and the council on Krypton. Him and his wife putting the baby in the rocket. The Kents finding the rocket. And even scenes with Clark at age 12 and 25.
