good back-story, and good acting
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
I like this kind of stuff... Very often, I find the inspiration behind a work to be more interesting than the work, itself.I'm not completely sold on the notion that discussion of hemlines, or the domestic status quo, can be waved away as being 'unimportant', though...Their relationship with each other may have been unusual - and perhaps even trailblazing, for its time - but that shouldn't cloud the fact that, because the creator is male, Wonder Woman still remains at least in part an outlet for MALE desires... Feminists championing a character doesn't automatically make the character herself feminist... and if one professes to believe in 'truth', then it is important that this idea is discussed and debated perhaps more robustly than it is examined by the film!
Short and Simple Review by WubsTheFadgerThe film shows the story of how Wonder Woman became to be. It is a story that should seem mundane, but Angela Robinson makes it exciting and real. The story is full of extremely sexual dialogue, moments, and visuals. The film is a great character study and also has a good amount of humor spattered throughout. The acting is the best part of the film. Rebecca Hall, Luke Evans, and Bella Heathcote all perform phenomenally. Rebecca Hall delivers probably the best performance of her career as a narcissistic woman who is also brilliant. The pacing is mostly good. The runtime is also a little overlong.Pros: Exciting and real story, great character study, some good humor, amazing acting by Rebecca Hall, good overall acting, and a good endingCons: Some slow pacing and an overlong runtimeOverall Rating:.7.3
Brilliant writing and directing. The acting is to be as praised as well. I do not know how much of the actual truth is presented in the movie, but it was a very smart portrayal of how wonder woman came to be and what she has represented all alone
The start of the movie made me think "three star" as we were presented w/the improper clichéd scene of male teacher looking at attractive female student with an obviously longer attention span (in real life it would be noticeable to all ss) and female student smiling back, also with more than academic interest. OK, obviously meant to capture viewer interest for what was to follow. But, as the tale unfolds it turned out to be informative on many issues, particularly for that period and applicable still today, about female gender role in society; what is sexuality; what is love; general societal acceptable norms of behavior for relationships; not to mention our ground breaking female superhero. The only thing I thought was missing, probably in special features, was better objective documentation to support the telling of the story in that way.
