*spoilers ahead*
I didn't like that they didn't show her being brought to life by Zeus. As a matter of fact, that whole scene of her origin story being told in moving book illustrations was disappointing to me. Themyscira looked great tho, and the fight scenes both there and throughout the movie were awesome... especially when she got busy in the tower. Her busting the tower was some Superman shit tho lol. I wish they'd had her invisible jet rather than a sailboat too. But anyway, the story should have stuck to the way it was told in the 2009 animated version rather than focusing SO much on London and Germany. Speaking of which, Aries was such a fail. Dude is and aging like a mofo, and he was nothing but the DC version of Magneto. Stahhhp it. This is the GOD OF WAR, and that's how yall do him? I didn't like that she won with her special move. It was liking watching a boring Street Fighter battle. She never had to think or outsmart anyone, and that's one of the reasons Captain America 1 is the better movie. The other reason CA is better is that she has no DEPTH as a character. CA has this thread of bravery and morality that makes him an interesting character without the action. Wonder Woman is SUPPOSED to have that too, but they dropped the ball, especially with the social climate we're in now. They hit us with that "loves conquers all" crap like a cheesy kids movie. On some level tho, I can forgive that, because this is the first Wonder Woman movie they've made, and this is making up for lost time I suppose. It's the movie that should have come out in the 80s and perhaps speaks to older folks who always wanted the movie, but it's weak for 2017... yet I've been waiting on a WW movie for years, and I thought it was weak, so whatever. Best thing about the movie was the fight scenes and the scenery itself. Story was too crammed in and too uninteresting due to where they put the focus imo. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Days like this I miss Sha Mecca
