After successfully establishing Wonder Woman as a much grittier version, it's a shame to see that vision completely overlooked.
Opening with some impressive action set pieces (albeit laughably cheesy and subsequently inconsequential) the movie is nothing but plot for over an hour, hammering 80's aesthetic and almost insultingly bad story direction that shoehorns unrequited plots with embarrassing force.
When the movie does eventually pick up, the sheer stupidity of the motives rob the the action of its glory.
Despite being well choreographed, a great look and a stand out soundtrack by Hans Zimmer, the only other positive I got from this was the main villain who was surprisingly well written and performed.
Sadly, this is not the movie we hoped for. Absolute 70's cheese packaged in a fashionable 80s wrapping with only little fun to be had.
