Review of Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) by Maxwellmade — 25 Dec 2020
“please check in on your friends this holiday season. some are alone for the first time and might resort to watching wonder woman 1984” - Desus I’m not sure what happened during production or if COVID is to blame but man is this one disappointing.
Definitely enjoyed the first Wonder Woman outing and despite Gadot’s political beliefs I think she is the definitive Wonder Woman this sequel though is an absolute mess. Kristen wiig is the only real highlight of this film otherwise it legit feels like an ai generated this movie after watching all the 70s and 80s bad superman/superhero movies.
I’m fine with campy but this entire movie felt bizarre like it didn’t know what it wanted to be, like it 4 different films running at the same time at such a sluggish pace while overstaying it’s welcome.
Lots of weird things happen and it all feels off kilter down to the script and reactions of characters, the film never seems to understand or follow the rules of its reality. The end just happens with no real resolute or cloture just an abrupt Christmas scene that just feels ham fisted.
If you’re on HBO Max you’re better off watching Birds Of Prey, definitely the best live action comic movie this year and very enjoyable.
