Rating: 6/10 (26 February 2019)

Patty Jenkins's 'Wonder Woman' is a decent film. It has the disadvantage of being associated with the other films of the DCEU, and that is a shame since the film is quite excellent, there's actually a story that keeps you interested. Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman varies between good character to confusing character, but Gadot makes the character her own and by the end of the film you will not be able to see anyone as Wonder Woman but Gadot. Chris Pine as Steve Trevor made the film feel grounded and gave a lot of heart to it, watching him and Gadot have scenes where its just banter and is probably improvised make the movie great. The music is alright and fits the standard for okay superhero movie music, not relying 100% on ZImmer and JunkieXL's music only when it needs to, and that makes it great, showing that they won't rely simply off of "badass" music. The villain and the big twist towards the end is very weak and makes for an awful final fight similar to the doomsday fight in 'Dawn of Justice'. The final fight and the special effects are what bring this movie down. The special effects in this film are awful, obvious green screen during combat and reused shots of Gadot leaping in the air. The cgi is awful and very noticeable. The big "twist" is equivalent to picking the background character as the villain. Of course you would be shocked but the film never even hinted at it and the final villain could've been anyone. This film presents an excellent female lead for young children to look up to, and is a very inspirational film with a lot of heart. The film overall is fun and a step in the right direction for DC.
