- Trivia(at around 35 mins) Christopher Reeve bowed out just before filming began. He was slated to make a cameo as Superman, but was unavailable. The film still features a picture of Reeve in costume in a brief cameo.
- Goofs(at around 58 mins) During the "monster tractor" sequence, a boom operator is visible in the wrecked bar's mirror.
- Crazy creditsIn the beginning credits real silver is flashed at you.
- Alternate versionsIn the US advanced screening version, there was more dialog between Selena and Supergirl. Selena tells Supergirl she will make her name known all over the world, and that she herself, should fear. Supergirl replies to this, saying she will only bow to truth and justice, and Selena shows some black magic.

Featured review
It could be because I was six the first time I saw it and had a crush on the girl that played supergirl for a long time thereafter, but I enjoy the movie. The special effects are horribly dated compared to what we have become use to in movies, and the acting is not much better. Unless you really like the superman movies, or are under the age of six, the movie would probably be utterly boring. The only good thing that I can say about the movie is that I like it, but I don't know why.
