Review of Wonder Woman (2017) by Tyger44 — 13 Jun 2017
Wonder Woman is a bit overrated. Not to say that the movie is bad, far from it. It is indeed a massive improvement over the lackluster Batman vs Superman and the disaster that was Suicide Squad. However, there was just something missing in Wonder Woman that left me feeling a little disappointed. Which is a shame, because this movie had a great foundation. Wonder Woman in World War I, trying to end the war to end all wars. And overall, I did like the characters, I like Diana's and Steve's relationship, I liked the perspective Diana had about the human world. How she had to learn and grow, as anyone would have to.
Unfortunately, after a very long two hours, the climax came, and everything the film did right was undone. In a final battle, filled with mediocre CGI, an overly silly villain, and lame action. It didn't help that Gal Gadot's lack of acting experience was massively exposed, especially when paired with seasoned actors like Robin Wright.
Believe me, the movie is good. DC is not dead yet. But the film is not the game changer that the reviews will say.
Still, I enjoyed it, and I think you will too.
