A huge step up

Rating: 9/10 (1 June 2017)

Patty Jenkins has done it. After we had witnessed the critical duds like Suicide Squad and BVS, we now have a film that will be truly known as the first great DCEU movie. Let me get you into the details without spoilers.
Entertainment factor. The movie's greatest strength for me is in its humor and it didn't bore us like the last DCEU films. Action scenes were great with no hiccups. Editing was an improvement also from the previous DC films. Thank God.
Production value. You could tell they really took the time even if the budget is much lower than a typical Marvel movie. Costumes and the film locations were chosen wisely. From the sandy beaches of Diana's homeland, Victorian London, to the grittiness of a WW1 battlefield.
CGI. Much of the movie were made with practical effects but some scenes are with a green screen background. Some of the CGi were unconvincing but tolerable throughout the movie. No complaints though.
Acting. Is good, everyone played their part like they were meant to be but no Oscar-worthy roles. Gadot's performance and role as the Amazonian princess definitely perfect albeit her acting needs more polishing. Chris Pine felt natural in his role as usual. Supporting characters were also noteworthy in their roles.
Overall an entertaining ride from start to finish. Definitely recommend. 8.5/10
