I also loved distinct style the Amazonian warriors have. The contrast between long range artillery and up close and personal slashing and bashing was beautiful. The finale was the only disappointment. Half expected Doomsday to show up halfway.

I agree, the villains are probably the weakest element of the whole film, but the Gadot/Pine teaming is splendiferous enough to overcome minor faults such as this. Heck, the Marvel films have been cruising on average villains for several years now. Poor Thewlis, though. I feel for him.

That's awesome that she was a combat instructor. Awesome....on so many levels.<br /><br />Agree with the crummy villain aspect, but I think that's simply more forgivable in an origin story. We're too wrapped up in our protagonist to really care about the baddie. And besides, I wouldn't have wanted to spend too much time away from Diana. But maybe that's just me...<br /><br />Talking during the big battle is RIDICULOUS, but as you've said, it's kind of par for the course. I assume everyone does it because the combatants have also seen fight scenes and it feels like it what you're supposed to do. Like if you and me got down, we'd talk it out. And when you busted my lip? I'm wipe the blood with the back of my thumb, look at it, then wave you to me Morpheus style. m.brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457418128925003938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-56459313459702502702017-06-06T10:11:20.415-04:002017-06-06T10:11:20.415-04:00Exactly.

The fact that a superhero is the impetus for going over the top completely negates the bravery of actual people who had to endure such a battle. Also the depiction of war as a good vs evil is at best a missed opportunity to examine the ambiguity and at worst revisionist and misguided (the Germans were not the only ones to use gas attacks).<br /><br />That said, I enjoyed the film greatly.

I really hope this is the start of great things for DCEU because the fans have suffered enough and I hope the studio does WW2 faster than Man of Steel 2 because they managed to make Superman so dull and Cavill's limited abilities are only making it worse.s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-45779011178908981412017-06-05T16:49:00.968-04:002017-06-05T16:49:00.968-04:00I totally agree about guys whining about women-onl...I totally agree about guys whining about women-only screenings. There really was nothing to protest.<br /><br />Pine was excellent, as was the movie on the whole. I am absolutely on board for a sequel. While I would love to see an Oscar campaign for Gadot, because she is outstanding, I don't think it will happen. This isn't Oscars' type of thing. Hopefully, I'm wrong.Dellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634519605152190304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-65872815887165257862017-06-05T16:44:28.348-04:002017-06-05T16:44:28.348-04:00I really liked it.

The screening I went to was nearly 50% women as I saw a mother and her daughter both wearing different Wonder Woman t-shirts as it showed how much of a big deal it was and they definitely were happy about what they saw.<br /><br />I also like the fact Chris Pine was willing to be the one to show skin in a comical manner as he seemed cool to be the supporting character as I was impressed with his performance. The whole cast was awesome as I'm on board for another Wonder Woman film. I also hope we can get an Oscar campaign for Gal Gadot for Best Actress. She really gave the performance of a lifetime as I'm just happy to see little girls finally have a role model that actually means something rather than be shown wearing a thong. thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227751790693713235.post-58606941263638663572017-06-05T16:19:47.133-04:002017-06-05T16:19:47.133-04:00I want to see this movie and glad you liked it ove...I want to see this movie and glad you liked it overall.
