Rating:
8 out of 10, It’s tough to arrive as a sequel to a really good film but that’s
why sequels exist. This is better than most despite having to climb the high standards
set by the original Wonder Woman. Gadot is still the best thing about the film
providing gravitas and physicality demonstrating her character has grown up since
the first film. There’s a world weariness appropriately conveyed. As with most
escapist lore there are huge plot holes but I like the send up of the 1980s as
well as the reincarnation of her first love. The plot falters at the finish
line with a fairly unsatisfying climatic confrontation but this is still better
than most DC movies.
MVP:
Gal Gadot owns this as Diana Prince / Wonder Woman
