Gal Gadot is great as Wonder Woman, bringing a wealth of charm, energy, timing and commitment to her role. Unfortunately though, this movie doesn't fit with the 1970s original, where she definitely is not a god and why they decided here to incorporate this distasteful aspect to her being is offensive and disrespectful. On a brighter note, the action scenes are impressive and even thrilling in parts but this doesn't feature enough through its lengthy run time. Too many portions of meandering and silly conversations damages the overall impact and it feels like a stop/start affair. I did enjoy the message of love conquering all even if in this world not much love exists and not even Wonder Woman is capable of achieving such, as she herself acknowledges towards the end of the movie. Still, Gal Gadot's portrayal provides a positivity and the urge to keep striving for peace and happiness and these sentiments don't go unnoticed. If they'd condensed this down to 100 minutes max this would have ensured a tighter, more effective viewing experience. Still, it's worth a watch if only for seeing Gal Gadot in action.
