Review of Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) by Jddallas1 — 27 Dec 2020

3 Things I thought right after seeing this movie:

1) Jeez DC you're better than this..this is NOT gonna help you on the "MARVEL Vs DC SCOREBOARD".

2) I am I being unfair? This IS a comic book movie.."suspension of disbelief" is necessary for any movie like this..right? BUT THIS MUCH?!

3) Thank God I didn't waste my time and money going to see THIS in the theatre I'm gonna give this a (very generous) 5..cuz I think I now understand the intended audience for this..which I can only imagine is elementary school girls..little girls obviously because the message is clear..today a woman can be anything..strong, smart, beautiful and the "hero". Instead of wanting around to be saved by men..Wonder Woman can be the savior all by herself. Nevermind that everyone from Disney to James Cameron has been trumpeting this same message..yet doing so in a way that doesn't insult one's intelligence. If it wasn't for the fact that I was watching it with my now teen daughter who saw the original a few years back and loved it..I think I would've turned it off right about the time a WWI Bi-plane pilot knew how to instinctively fly a modern jet that despite somehow being a museum piece was fully fueled, primed and prepped to make a non stop flight to Eqypt (that fact that it was able to turn invisible soon after takeoff seems almost plausible by comparison).
