Actors: Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Robin
Wright, Danny Huston, David Thewlis, Connie Nielsen, and Elena Anaya.
Rating: 10 out of 10 A new favorite movie of the year as DC comics
finally deliver on the wealth of lore they are blessed with. I was incredibly
impressed with Gal Gadot and not for the usual reasons. I’ve always thought she
was a bit stiff if undeniably gorgeous in prior movies but this was a part she
was born to play. She’s confident, physical, and sneakily funny throughout. I
thought they spent a little too much time on her mythical island which had a
hard time not seeming silly but as soon as she is thrust into World War 1
Europe the movie soars. Chris Pine tags along as her less capable, but “above
average” counterpart. I thought this would be the hardest of the DC heroes to
effectively bring to the screen but boy was I wrong, Gadot and the movie are
truly wonders.
MVP: Predictably Gadot as Diana Prince
– a true wonder
