Wonder Woman: I almost universally hate superhero movies, but this one mostly transcends the genre. Fails at times by indulging in nonsensical hero vs. bad guy buffoonery, but overall it was a good, not great movie. Gal Gadot was awesome. The movie was funny and the slow scenes were never slow. Often it was the slow motion shots in the action scenes that caused the pace to break down.

I can quibble with things like the unnecessary framing scenes, two different voice-over narrations in the first 10 minutes, the ending, stuff like that…and maybe I can fix those in a fanedit one day, who knows. But I think the biggest negative with this movie was that the hero didn’t have a weakness. She tried and succeeded at everything she ever wanted to do from beginning to end, and nobody ever stopped her. She was a lot like Rey.
