Amazon power

Rating: 5/10 (6 November 2017)

If you're liking special effects than this big screen version of Wonder Woman will fit your pistol. But for myself I much prefer what Lynda Carter did in the 70s on the small screen.
I'm not even sure comic book purists will not have criticisms because this one takes Wonder Woman back to World War I. As we know she was created just before our entry into that second World War and her reason for leaving the Paradise Island home was to offer her services to the Allies most specifically against Mr. Hitler.
In this one Steve Trevor played by Chris Pine washes ashore on the Amazonian populated Paradise Island and he's followed shortly by some invading Germans. Trevor is played by Chris Pine and he helps battle the invaders.
Not without losses do the Amazons repel the Germans, they give a good account of themselves with spears and arrows, on horseback and on foot.
Here Princess Diana the soon to be Wonder Woman decides to leave the island because the Greek God of war Ares is behind all the slaughter on the western front. A Deity that gets off on killing. That's who Israeli actress Gal Gadot playing Wonder Woman is after while Chris Pine has a more prosaic intelligence mission.
Wonder Woman is a good action/adventure flick with the pyrotechnics fans crave, but I'll take Lynda Carter any old time.
