It passed the Bechdel test!

And that definitely isn't the only positive about this wonder-movie.
It is a well told origin story. It tells us where Diana is coming from, how she became who she is and why she's doing what she's doing. It paints a very clear picture. It makes you invested. Diana is the main focus but we get a sense of who the main supporting characters are as well. Especially Steve Trevor who is treated way better by the script than his female counterparts from similar movies. I really liked the merry band of misfits accompanying Diana on her quest. They gave both a face and perspective to the war and to humanity. Etta was my favorite.
The casting was amazing as well. Gal Gadot gave Diana strength, certain arrogance coming from trusting one's abilities but also innocence, naivety and vulnerability. Chris Pine was charming as a spy should be while not threatened at all by Diana's abilities and his feelings for her. And the Big Bad? Maybe I should have figured it out on my own but I like surprises, so why bother. They were sufficiently threatening and it was easy to understand and fear their monstrosity.
The action sequences were really cool as well. Though there were a couple of instances where the CGI was a little too on the nose. My favorite was the very first fight on the beach. So beautiful and heartbreaking.
Visually it was also very appealing. The costumes, scenery, camera work. And also the music was well picked.
Overall, it was everything one could wish for from such a movie. Compelling story-telling, interesting multi-dimensional characters, humor and emotions, stunning visuals. Well done, girls, well done.
