More of What A Comic Book Fan Would Expect

Rating: 8/10 (18 June 2017)

This is a Wonder Woman with a much harder edge than Lynda Carter's TV version. There are some things which are different, much different than what a fan of the TV series would expect.
The CGI and effects are of course obviously much advanced over the TV version. Actually as a pg-13, the sexuality in this one is much less than the old TV show. I always drooled for Lynda Carter. The way Gal Godot is presented in this one, while she is attractive, she is presented more as strong than as sexy. She is a strong and determined independent Super Hero with Super Powers.
As far as being charming as well as sexy, that is downplayed in this one. There are a few really conservative jokes about fidelity and sex manuals, but other than those, this is a totally family friendly action film. The CGI graphics are good, and the action sequences are good though some of the action is a bit intense. Danny Huston and David Thewlis are the main baddies and Chris Pine is a more personable Steve Trevor whose role is actually upgraded to a Spy in this plot line. Trevor actually has a lot of feelings expressed at times in his role for Wonder Woman. He is much different than the Trevor on the TV series.
The plotting is a little muddled and crazy, but comic book fans of Wonder Woman should be happy with the results. It could have been done better though. Still, this should sell a lot of tickets. It is good.
