Surprised by the early positive vibe around this movie. I want to like it more, share the enthusiasm but... Wonder Woman has incredibly severe flaws that can't make it a *good* movie by any stretch of the imagination.

Probably the biggest issue is the acting. Both leads have very limited acting skills... It takes you out of the movie more often than once. Some scenes are forced, some dialogue overdone like an SNL skit... simply not possible. The ultimate bad guy is a joke. Straight out of GOD OF WAR PlayStation game (really). Not credible for a second.

And, also, on a more personal note, this is the moment where I realized the Zack Snyder school of filming action movies needs to be abandoned. Over abundant jumping, too heavy slo-mo... after three? four? movies of that; it's time to retire it.

It's a shame really because the movie started well enough: having a female lead was great; the Greek mythology clicked for the most part and the World War I setting was nice. The character is also fantastic. Which is why it deserved better It's only average unfortunately.
