Best DC movie yet. Beginning left a little doubt but it was a refreshing change of pace style super hero movie.

Looking forward to Captain Marvel.

i disagree. Watched it Saturday with my 8 year old. It was well done, but pretty cheesy. I gave it a solid B, but i wouldnt put it in the top 3 DC movies.

I feel like most of the praise for this movie is because of how bad the other DC movies have sucked. It was okay, not great.

I thought it was super bland. Nothing exciting happened and the villain was pretty cheesy.

100% this. Saw it twice, walked out the first time thinking it was pretty good. The second viewing I could barely get past the bad acting of Gadot (yes we all know she is good to look at), the wonky looking CGI and the awful 3rd act. It was good but nowhere near great.

Gave you an upvote to offset the negativity you're going to get in this thread.

Wife and I watched it the other night. I've seen the love the movie got here and in ticket sales... but I don't get it.

It's the same super hero movie like all the rest. Nothing special at all. Boring and predictable. Don't see why it was tagged as a good movie. Maybe I'm just bored to death of these kinds of movies.

Agree 100%

Gadot is fine AF but a horrible actress. She was cringeworthy on SNL this past weekend

Disagree, her playful side feels more genuine than any actress in recent history except maybe ScoJo

When she's being serious, she may need a little work, but she is difficult to look away from...
Kinda like the Melissa gal that plays Supergirl, cameras love those two

It was ok.

The best thing about it was the WW1 setting.

I agree the movie stands out more because of how bad the other DC films are, but Gadot wasn’t the issue.

Cringing, or a tingling in your special place?

Yes, we are all in agreement she is hot. That is a fact however, your unwarranted love and defense of the DCEU or whatever they are or aren't calling it blinds you to the obvious. She can't act and the movie wasn't as good as you claim. I know it's all opinion but I've seen you put it as your top movie of the year. All that shows is you don't know shite about good movies. It was probably the 3rd or 4th best comic book movie of the year. I'm pretty sure Thor will be better and I'm hoping Justice League is actually good.

I thought it was really good but it's not a movie I want to watch again.

Watched it Saturday myself. C- as far as comic book movies go.

Guessed the big twist around the 25% mark.

Gadot was bad, Pine mailed it in and his character was badly under-developed, the ancillary characters were all bland.

The war action scene, however, was some of the coolest superhero action you will see. Watching Wonder Woman whip arse was very satisfying. Sadly, it happened all of once.

C-

Loved the first 2/3 of the movie with the fish out of water stuff. The final third devolved into a cgi mess like most of these superhero movies tend to do.
