Perffect!

Rating: 10/10 (4 June 2017)

This is the best Superhero debut I have seen since Superman (Christopher Reeve version) from the 80's. From the casting (Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman) to the music (Hans Zimmer & Tom Holkenborg) this movie never misses a beat. The Amazonian warrior (Amazons of Themsycira) race was done to perfection. There is no doubt from watching their training to battle that these are some serious ***kickers. A lot more impressive than the Thor debut. This movie has a lot of emotion from the fairly light romance between Wonder Woman and the pilot Steve Trevor to Wonder Woman's relationship with her mother Hippolyta. There is a fair amount of humor as Diana (Wonder Woman) navigates the early 40's time period including sexism and women's very restricted roles. There is a great scene where she lays into the British Commander with some well placed criticism. All of the actors do incredible work making their characters real and sympathetic and I have to give kudos to the writers as well. It doesn't get any better than this.
