Wonder Woman

Amor a todas vistas. Y el mejor DC desde Man of Steel. Un encuentro maravillosamente captado entre el mundo de fantasía de una isla escondida y sus valores e ideales puros, con el mundo real en su época más difícil de la historia que recordamos. Dos personajes hábilmente escritos y dirigidos con precisión todo el tiempo, que representan estos dos mundos. Y su entendimiento mutuo que se profundiza y el cariño mutuo que es inevitable. ¿Ha logrado algún otro cómic con un trasfondo de fantasía tan fuerte presentar un espejo del mundo tan acertadamente? Wonder Woman tiene el corazón bien puesto, respeta el original, es inteligente, sexy y no tiene una sola broma tonta. Cuatro y medio. (06.06.2017)

Gal Gadot es tan encantadora que se puede ver durante al menos 140 minutos, así que es genial que prácticamente no se haya bajado de la pantalla. Además, la buena inocencia de su personaje le agregaba aún más atractivo. Después de la deprimente Špína, este descanso se ajustó perfectamente a mi estado de ánimo, sin mencionar que el guión no fue de ninguna manera estúpidamente simple, incluso intentó transmitir algún mensaje. Una experiencia agradable no solo desde el punto de vista estético. (14.07.2017)

In the recent years it is fashionable to shoot action or fantasy movies with female leads, so we have a chance to see or discover a whole range of new and beautiful actresses with great skill. In this case Gal Galdot did not disappoint at all. Her beauty is probably visible all the way from the Moon and even Martians would know who to pay attention to on planet Earth, if they decided to conquer it. However, I've had some issues with the screenplay as that is much worse. The Americans appear to think that we Europeans are completely dumb, so they’ve mixed the visualization of the First and Second World War and created something that may be nice to look at, but otherwise it is completely stupid. Luckily, there is Chris Pine alongside Gal Galdot and he was probably even better than her. His role was once again amazing, which I cannot say about the antagonist, portrayed by David Thewlis. His acting was good, but as an enemy he qualifies at a similar level as a nice uncle with moustache and candy. The film radiates personality and also quality, but I think it is still not enough to place DC on the same level with movies like Thor or The Guardians of the Galaxy that brought a new level of quality and fun into movies based on comic books.

I don't know. It didn’t bother me, but if I could sleep two hours longer instead of Wonder Woman, I'd probably consider it time better spent. The opening on the island of the Amazons is a feast for the eyes, the action sequences are fine until the Snyder-like CGI-mess kicks in, where everything bangs, lights up, slows down and looks like it's from a stupid video game. And Gal Gadot nails it, she's not a very good actress, but luckily Chris Pine is always next to her and is cool and funny enough to somehow pull it off. Unfortunately, the whole thing is at least half an hour longer than it should have been, the middle section with the shenanigans in London isn't nearly as funny as the filmmakers might have liked, and the messed-up finale sadly shows that Warner still hasn’t learned from the mistakes that plagued their previous films. And I honestly don't know if I'll be in the mood for it next time. (31.05.2017)

This is for me by far the most interesting origin story that DC Comics, and in fact all of the Marvel comics combined, have done to date. You can see that it was made by a woman, so the emphasis is not on CGI, but on the story and it works perfectly. The juxtaposition of wide-eyed Diana vs a new, uncharted world works great and brings a lot of funny situations (the whole cinema was laughing), the setting of the story in World War I is original and unorthodox in comics, and the CGI orgy at the end is easy to digest. Plus it has a strong anti-war appeal, so another thumbs up. And Gal Gadot? As of today, she’s my new heroine. Irresistible in her righteous anger, honest with her astonished surroundings, and not only charming but – how to say – emancipated in the right way, girls must love this. (10.06.2017)
