There isn't much to say about WB and their DC Movies but when it comes to Wonder Women one thing I will say is...
Wonder Women is a Wonderful film.
WB finally made a real movie. They created something that was enjoyable to watch and not a torture to sit through. A movie that had a beginning, middle and end. Not a over complexed film trying to do something different. (See Suicide Squad a movie that shows everything you shouldn't do in a movie)
WB went back to the basics and it pays off big time
Gal Gadot is Wonder Women, one that I can not get enough of. When it comes to Justice League the truth for me, and I believe as well as the general public is we aren't really excited about it. But Gal Gadot has given me more enthusiasm for JL. This is what WB should done. Introduced each character in their own film before Justice League, this was the first and biggest mistake.
Chris Pine does a great job as Steven Trevor. One of Pine's greatest abilities as a actor is his comedic timing. It works beautifully here that only helps the flow of this movie. Keep in mind this is still a 2hr and 21 minute movie but never did I feel that. Batman v Superman was a different story.Credit has to be given to Director Patty Jenkins. Jenkins made a great action film that has a solid story line and the best scene in a DC movie to date.
Wonder Women is the first DC movie (Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, Suicide Squad) from scene to scene that kept my attention locked. I felt emotion on the screen, the last 3 never did that for me. Lets swing over to action. The action in WW is great. The fight sequences are fantastic and this should be the standard from this point further.
Hey WB pay attention here!
Jenkins directed her first feature length in 2003's Monster. A movie that Charlize Theron won an Academy Award for Best Actress. Now her second film after her TV stint is Wonder Women which at the time of writing this charges toward $420 plus million. Which would be 2017's 8th biggest movie on 4,165 theater screens.
Which was the lowest...
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was on 4,256
Suicide Squad was on 4,255
Man of Steel was on 4,207
WB this is what you need, continue what you did with Wonder Woman.
The WB (and DC) should definitely pay attention. Hopefully, they've finally righted the ship and we have some very good movies to look forward to.
