A simple, maybe a little bit naive idea for a cruel world

Rating: 10/10 (3 June 2017)

"Love can end the war".
Not like the The Dark Knight, Wonder Woman has a simple, maybe a little bit naive idea for a cruel world. Just like Diana herself.
The cinematic is beautiful, the fight is intense with good slow-mo, the music is epic and the story is touching. Maybe the movie itself was directed by a woman, so it is really emotional, a lot of feeling. I literally heard people sit next to me cried. The movie also has some humor scenes, not so much, but enough to keep it not too dark.
The story is simple: a hero from an island that out of mankind's knowledge goes to the real world. She with her "above average" lover and friends go on a impossible mission to fight the bad guy and save people. And the most important thing in the first movie of any superhero is, the hero found more about herself and her responsibility. This is the part that this movie did so well.
The character development is neat, no rushing, no long boring emotional scene, just enough. The story is simple, but enough for us the understand the feeling of an innocent hero faced the cruel reality world. It made very clear about the point that mankind doesn't deserve her. But the love, the good part of people we met helped her choose the path. And the peace didn't come without a cost.
The Wonder Woman of Gal reminded me about the Superman of Christopher Reeve, a good and simple person, symbol of hope. No matter what happened, she just keep following her good heart. I believe this movie will bring Gal Gadot to the next level of her acting career.
Chris Pine's role is well done. A complex spy, that is opposite to Diana. He knows the real world, and tried a lot to explain to Diana, but not too mumbo-jumbo or dramatic about that.
Some other characters are fine, but somehow faded along the movie.
Conclusion, as a fan of DC, I maybe a bit bias for this movie. But it's really good, a lot better than I expected after recent movies from DC. It doesn't bring too much that may make too much messy to digest, but also not too simple to make it a cheap entertainment movie.
