Wrong War for Savior

Rating: 3/10 (30 November 2017)

Hollywood did it again. They took a great story idea and under-used it. Or just plainly screwed it up. Evil rules during WW I?? How about Evil ruling during WW II!! Now that would have been something. Diana kills the god of War in 1943. Then the SS stops hunting Jews. Wouldn't an Israeli like Gal Gadot find that more appealing? Also, I found the script pedantic and outdated for its time. I must have heard "War is bad! Save Lives!" about 30 times. You can tell the writers want everyone else to be total liberals, too. That's why I think the background should have been WW II. Sometimes, War is necessary. I'm also an Army Reservist with three Mobilizations. So I don't "make war from an office" as Diana once said self-righteously to a general, who's an obviously unlikable character (Hollywood again). And women don't bear kids! Just make them out of clay. Hollywood is full of feminists. Some scenes were very cool. Diana fights the Kaiser's Army without really killing any of them; I found that appealing. She discovers ice cream! She looks stylish in a 1916 outfit.
