Refreshing experience for superhero movies

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 2017)

This film has met and exceeded my expectations... The only superhero movies that are on the same level as Wonder Woman are Captain America The Winter Soldier and Logan.
The film is very refreshing in many ways. First and most obvious is the magnificent female lead performed by Gal Gadot who is a perfect fit for this role. Second, a good balance of humor and seriousness, something that Marvel can't grasp after all these years. The movie is funny just when it needs to be and when the story gets more serious, all the jokes are eliminated. Third, choosing WW1 instead of WW2 because it was a conflict with no clear villain where all sides were to blame, and this concept fits the story perfectly.
The director and cinematographers wonderfully manage to show the transition from paradise-like Themiskyra to regular Earth which is dark, corrupted, hateful and war torn; the theme that DCEU portrays in its comics, animation films and games. They show how Diana is shocked by this world and how she evolves while staying true to her core values and beliefs.
The chemistry between Gal Gadot and Chris Pine kicks off right from the first glance and it was something marvelous and heart warming to watch. The rest of the cast deserves high praise too.
My favorite part... the MUSIC. I would never give a movie a 10 if the music is not a right fit and this time it is a BIG 10!!! I got hyped about it from BVS and now finally I got my overdose of goosebumps and thrills. When it was combined with the action scenes, I almost jumped up on my chair. Speaking of action scenes... they were as Kick-ass as they come, right from the beginning until the end with fantastic camera work and great balance between Slow-mo and regular shots.
There are not enough words to describe this film, its a start of something new and very big which I hope will be replicated in the rest of DCEU films. As wonderful a back-story as there could be!!!
THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING THIS
