Plot holes covered by beautiful casting

Rating: 7/10 (11 June 2017)

So to get right to the core Wonder Woman was not a great film. The plot holes were massive and the progress was way to slow. The directing was okay and the production was high budget quality (maybe a bit higher than what you would expect from the budget they had). The CGI was brilliant and the acting was spot on... So why would I only give it a 7 then?
Well to put it in the words of Louie CK "There is no such thing as an accent, it's just a whole country of people saying words wrong". The movie starts off with some of the strangest takes on the English accent that you have ever heard, all because Gal Gadot cannot speak English with an American accent, so for that reason everyone needs to talk weird. Then there is the fact that day and night differs in areas one moment and the next they are perfectly aligned. The battles were against horrible fighters and it almost made iron man 3's battle against the falling rocks look more credible. Diana had no knowledge of who she is yet she possessed perfect knowledge of her abilities within seconds.
All of this was not thought through well enough, but then you realize that this is not about a good story. It's about a beautiful woman who can also fight, and that is CLEARLY stated in the film. I think that the biggest challenge in the film was to get Gal Gadot and Chris Pine's hottest angles right every time. If you see the film you'll know what I mean. It all revolves around their beauty and granted it worked. Every guy walking out of the cinema now has a new Hollywood crush and every girl revived their Hollywood crush on Chris Pine.
BUT I don't think that is what stories are about. Any two other actors that were a bit less "hot" would've seriously tanked this film. Good effort for a film and luckily not another attempt at making comedy superhero movies.
