Wonder Woman = Wonder of Wonders!

Rating: 10/10 (6 July 2017)

"Wonder Woman" is a superhero movie, and it fulfills the heroic and mythic demands of that genre, but it's also an entry in the genre of wisdom literature that shares hard-won insights and long-pondered paradoxes of the past with a sincere intimacy. Wonder Woman embraces issues of female power and the need to turn from hate to love, war to peace in a mainstream delivery system. And the female lead is not solely a mother, sister, girlfriend or hooker, however gold her heart: wonder of wonders! So in short, Wonder Woman is not just exciting to watch -- she Wonder-fully undermines DC Comics' endorsement of vigilante justice and glorified bloodshed!!!!!
