I went in expecting a C film.
Wasn't dazzled or disappointed.

I think I liked it more than most in here but I'll admit my initial thoughts were, "how are they going to make a good Wonder Woman movie?" Harken to the days of the invisible jet she flew around, etc. and I had some serious doubts. They made her better than expected in BvS so that gave me some hope. The previews then actually seemed decent as well. Seeing the actual movie, I enjoyed it much more than any I'd seen recently. A very enjoyable movie and yes, she is gorgeous. I don't think they could have cast the movie better. She fits that role as well as Robert Downey Jr. fits Iron Man and Hugh Jackman fits Wolverine. Absolutely perfect for the role.

It was DC's most cohesive film, and a step up. BvS, the director's cut, was a decent flick. Suicide Squad looked SO promising & was total crap .

WW isn't perfect, and has noticeable flaws, but little cracks as a film overall.
Disagree.

Agreed on this.

I saw the morning this morning. I thought the pacing was a little slow throughout but that all of the actors were perfectly cast and directed. What bothered me (besides the spoilers below, which REALLY bothered me) is that that film had an air of VFX - as if nearly everything was Green Screen.

I know that most people look past that these days but to me, it was fairly egregious. My hope is that with a bigger budget for WW2, we'll less VFX and more real sets and location shots.

Spoiler!

My only complaint was the 2 teenage girls behind me that wouldn't shut up. I even gave them the benefit of the doubt that once the movie started, they'd shut up. Boy was I wrong. Talking at normal voices or even trying to talk over loud parts in the movie, reading EVERY word that came on the screen, and then playing on their phones. I tried the casual approach "Shhh"; "Please keep it down"; etc. That only made them do very loud "SHHHHH'S" every time anyone made a noise in the theater. I'm not one to tattle on them, but it wore thin & ruined a part of the movie for me & my family. Finally told front desk "Either you guys shut them the **** up or I'm going to do it in a not nice way." They told them "Either you be quiet & put your phones away or we're kicking you out." Didn't hear from them again.

Sorry for the rant.....hate it when people talk excessively in movies. Especially when I spend $100 to see one.
That is why I rarely go to the movie theater now. between the rude jackass' and the excessive prices its just not worth the time or money. What really pisses me off is that the high end theaters in KC with bigger screens and IMAX are cheaper than the ****ing shitty screens here. Its utter horseshit.

I try to only do matinees or Alamo for the same reasons. I have yet to see anybody be loud and obnoxious at Alamo. Except during quote-a-longs where it is expected.

Yeah, we pick a choose which movies are worth the expense. we never purchase drinks other than water cups and get the large popcorn with a free refill.

Pretty good flick. Gal Gadot was perfect for the role if you ask me.
