Though DC has the best superheroes, they seemed to be having a really hard time presenting good characters and stories for their live action movies, and its really too bad that wonder woman is no exception. I was really looking forward to this movie and after stellar reviews I really thought I would enjoy it. Sadly I didn't. Like Man of Steel, the opening is done well. But once Steve Trevor reaches Paradise island it all goes to pot. Everything they tried to keep 'secret' was telegraphed from the beginning and the silly story-line just made me mad. In Batman versus Superman, Gadot was the only shining light. She was again the point of interest in this story with Chris Pine's doing a good job. The Amazons were great characters. But one character proved totally out of place for his role in the film. The special effects were kind of sucky with everything looking fake. With all its stellar reviews, the audience was silent after the movie was over and everyone rushed for the exits; that's not a good sign. I know the film will make money but DC will continue to follow Marvel instead of leading.
