FIRST LOOK AT ACTION FILM
Trilogy of underwhelming DC Comic films saved by director Patty Jenkins’ new Wonder Woman movie
After a series of disappointing superhero films - Man of Steel, Batman Vs Superman, Suicide Squad - our critic was surprisingly impressed by Gal Gadot's action movie

Let’s get down to brass tacks straight away – Wonder Woman has absolutely saved DC’s a**e here.

After a trilogy of underwhelming and flabby films (Man of Steel, Batman Vs Superman, Suicide Squad), this was surely last chance saloon for them.

Luckily, they deftly took the reigns from Zac Snyder and handed them to Patty Jenkins, the first woman to direct a Superhero film – and it has paid off in spades.

All of this would be completely wasted though, were Gal Gadot not so utterly superb.
