Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated Wonder Woman (2017) in Movies

Part of me thinks I really should have got up and gone to the midnight showing of Wonder Woman, I went at 7.30 on the first Saturday it was out... and jesus, other people are annoying. But... that didn't stop me from enjoying the film. Yes, that's right everyone, a DC film that was finally good. I have never understood how they can make a good series but have somehow done a whole slew of bad films. Wonder Woman really was amazing though. All the way through the film I was hooked, a big round of applause is due!

As I write this in early 2021, 'Wonder Woman' is considered to be the best of the DC Extended Universe movies (closely followed by 'Shazam!' and 'Aquaman')
Wonder Woman 1984, in contract, is currently ranked as the worst on IMDB.
While it's definitely not a patch on the original, I'm not sure it's all that bad: sure, it is hard to get past the seeming lack of concern Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman has for (mild spoiler alert!) the body/soul/whatever of the man the returning Steve Trevor has (think Quantum Leap style) while it definitely follows into the old 'Superhero loses/gives up their powers' trope a la Superman 2 or Spider-Man 2, and I still don't understand how a World War One pilot can climb into the cockpit of a jet and fly it with nary a problem ...
Having said that, set your expectations accordingly (Superman 3 level, maybe), and it's an enjoyable enough

Not a Good Follow Up
Contains spoilers, click to show
Wonder Woman 84....wow. This was not a very good follow up to the first Wonder Woman movie. For me, there just was not enough Wonder Woman and the story was slow moving. Even the evolution of Cheetah, of which she was never referred to as that, was slow too. The way that Steve Trevor returned was odd to me and kind of silly. Pedro Pascal is a great actor but the villain he played seemed to be too much of the stereotypical old mustache twirling, monologing type of villain. He was not very compelling to me. Kristen Wiig did an excellent job at her character but I did not like the Cheetah angle. This movie under achieved royally in my opinion. At this point I don't know what is going in the DC movie verse but this movie is not a good part of it. I really like Patty Jenkins. I hope the next movie will overshadow this one.

Another Great Movie From The DCEU
Wonder Woman is a great addition to the DCEU, I've loved every movie from the DCEU (Except Suicide Squad ?)
Man of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice are up there with my favourite superhero movies
Wonder Woman brings a lighter tone and more family friendly viewing to the DCEU,
The story was quite generic, the villain wasn't the best, but overall the movie was a visual treat
Gal Gadot and Chris Pines chemistry on the screen is enough to keep you watching, and the action sequences are superbly filmed
Overall this movie has pushed the DCEU in the right direction
Well worth the watch

Nov 2, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
With Marvel already dominating the superhero movie market, Wonder Woman steps up to the plate and knocks it out the park in DC’s new movie that takes us further towards The Justice League.
So a few years ago we had Man of Steel, which had mixed reviews and was a movie that had an extremely long and all out good vs evil battle with Superman vs General Zod over Metropolis!
Then came Batman V Superman, a movie that I personally was hoping would be a version of my favourite Batman comic book, The Dark Knight Returns, sadly this was not to be and although the extended cut is a better version the film was another in the DCEU (DC Extended Universe) that had mixed reviews and a rather long good vs evil battle, it did introduce us to Wonder Woman.
Following on was the next in the franchise, Suicide Squad, again this was another movie that didn’t really go down well with movie fans, which also had a good vs evil fight at the end (I see a pattern) it certainly looked like DC had hit three strikes! So all hope rested on Wonder Woman.

just disappointing
In the world where Avengers and of course the imminent Infinity War is on the horizon Justice League is just an utter failure of a franchise movie
Be it the action, the dreadful CGI, the thin plot and the utterly terrible bad guy...it's just a disappointing mess

Cast is brilliant (2 more)
Both action packed and funny
Interesting plot
Best super hero film of the year. Sorry Wonder Woman
Such an enjoyable film. Funnier then is should be, with some great action set pieces. Plus Thor vs Hulk, and there bromance. Have a podcast review on my blog.
