re: Wonder Woman Movie ***SPOILERS*** Thread

Just got home... I thought it was fantastic. I really wanted this to be good and Im glad it was. By far the best DCEU film, and as far as origin stories go, this is right up there with Iron Man and Batman Begins for me. Here are a few of my thoughts:

Ever since BvS, I couldn't wait for her standalone film, and I thought it was everything it needed to be. She's so damned wide-eyed and charming.

THIS. Ive seen some people that have criticized Gal's acting, but I feel like if someone had never seen some of the things WW has seen and was kind of thrown in to this new world, this is exactly how i would want them to portray the character. She has this wide eyed curiosity about her which fits well. Also, this might be the best film to portray why a hero is a hero. Diana would've done everything in her power to make good in the world. That was awesome to see. The tone never felt off. Her scenes during the war carried a lot of weight. She just couldn't fathom how war worked this way and Gal played that perfectly.

Chris Pine was great. Him and GG had great chemistry. Im pretty jealous of him

The rest of the supporting cast was great too. Felt like the group with Captain America in TFA. Everyone had their moment to shine. The humor was also well placed. No cringe worthy moments either.

My only complaint was that the third act was a little rushed. I wish we could've gotten more Ares. A LOTTTT of slo mo, but I still thought it was pretty cool. WW is just so badass. She went nuts at the end when Steve died. Ive never read the comics or anything but her character is so cool to me.

Also, at the end, does she just chill in London until BvS??? And I thought it said Pine would play Steve and his grandson, or maybe I was wrong lol

Overall, it was great. Good for Gal and DC for finally getting it right. i really hope it carries over to JL but we will see.
