I enjoyed Wonder Woman and thought most everything was done well. It may not have been the best Superhero movie and is not nearly as good as The Avengers, but I enjoyed it just the same.

I would be happy if all of DC movies were of this quality, but to each their own. If you don't like it then no matter what anyone says you will not like it.

Finally saw this on HBO. I'm not a big fan of the comic book movies. However, I did enjoy this one. I didn't like the Dirty Dozen styled crew they put together to get across the lines, but I did like the action scenes with Gadot.

I have no problem with a female lead heroine. In fact, it was a refreshing change of pace.

Caught it on HBO last night as well. Decent flick, on par with most other comic book films. I really enjoyed the middle, the 3rd act was lame.

I disagree. After about 15 minutes, I thought it would be a shrill girl power movie. It did have those elements, but like Mad Max, they weren't so far up my arse that it made me dislike the movie. I enjoyed it.

Plus, you have to give recognition to the .01% of jewish chicks who aren't fuzzy nose-goblins. So, it's like international relations or something.

I saw it recently. I found it enjoyable, but it doesn't touch the Nolan movies.

Enjoy the down vote. The movie was pretty strong. I liked it, and have watched it a few times since seeing it in the theater.

There were some scenes where the CGI was just abysmal. Or maybe it was just a lame green screen, are those the same? When young Diane jumps off the side, that was some shite you could have seen in 1980. It was NOT a great movie and I don't understand why people insist it was.

Because supposedly it was a movie for women, ala Black Panther. If it sucks you better not say it.

So I just watched i again too and that theme Is the absolute worst. Why are they stuck on that electric guitar thing?

She needs something majestic, soaring, a little more emotional. But we get this grating guitar noise thing. It's completely jarring and ruins multiple triumphant scenes of the film.

It literally makes no sense for a hero to have that noise be their theme. It's a villain theme at best, and something to use for auditory torture at worst.

It really pissed me off in BvS, and then when I saw the WW trailer it pissed me off again. When I heard it in the theater I thought “Well, they’re sticking with this bullshite, but this scene is pretty fricking awesome” which made me forget about it.

One of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. It was absolute garbage.

I don't really like it either, but thankfully Rupert Gregson-Wlliams's score for WW was great. It only used the guitar in a few riffs. The Amazons of Themiscyra theme at the beginning is incredible, and "No Man's Land", the best sequence in the film, has fantastic music as well.

The Dark Knight is still the quintessential DC movie.

I think Wonder Woman is better than Dark Knight Rises though. Probably as good as Batman Begins.

Heath Ledger's performance will make The Dark Knight a hard movie to ever surpass.

Surprised at how boring and cliched it was. Chick version of Capt. America.

OP is getting a lot of hate but I agree. I thought a decent movie and a fun watch but the movie received tons of praise. I found the ending pretty lame. Calling something overrated doesn’t mean you’re saying it’s bad, it just means it’s not as good as commonly perceived.

I was underwhelmed.

Hell, at least they could've made Ludendorff bald.
