Wonder Woman (2017) - Page 209 - Blu-ray Forum

Saw it earlier and thought it was great! Gal was really good as Wonder Woman and you could clearly see her passion shine through. Pine was good aswell.

The only thing wrong with this movie was the CGI, there were some really iffy VFX in certain spots. I guess not everyone can have access to ILM or WETA but still. Maybe it was because i saw it in the special 70MM format. I did also noticed it was darker than it should of been. The Themyscira scenes should of been really bright and colorful. Hell maybe it was just the actual theater i was in that did a crappy job projecting it.

Kick ass movie though!

Just got back from this and very much enjoyed it. There are quibbles of course, mostly in an over-extended third act and climax that relies too heavily on the usual CGI-laden mayhem; it just feels so damned clichéd at this point. And speaking of cliched, Danny Huston as a villain? No! Who'd a thunk it?

Still, this is a lot of fun and done with a good amount of heart. Mind you, none of this would have been possible without Gal Gadot. It was one thing to be mysterious and alluring on the fringes of Batman V Superman, but this movie was a true test of her abilities and she's smashing in it. It's easy enough to have screen presence when you're 5'10'' of exotic beauty, but Gadot has the charisma to carry the movie. Endlessly charming, sweetly naive but never stupid, and she handles the humor, as well as her emotional scenes, beautifully. You simply can't take your eyes off of her, and how could you not root for her? She truly is the heart and soul of the film.The rest of the cast is equally fine, and Chris Pine shares great chemistry with her.

Such a pleasure to watch a superhero movie that just wants to give the audience a good time. It doesn't re-invent the wheel, and I didn't expect it to; it's an upretentious pleasure, and allows us to bask in the presence of a new and exciting star.

The score's fantastic. Something I don't say about many modern movies.

It really is. It's very intense.

There''s nothing like a good score.

Just got back from seeing this in IMAX 3D, what a great film! Overall good origin story for WW & honestly the BEST DECU film to date. The only drawback for me was the villain, he was a bit one dimensional & meh. Chris & Gal definitely have great chemistry together, we all can hope that the JL film will be closer to this setup.

A must see!!

4.75/5

Trailers that I saw prior to the film:
Spiderboi
Transformers
Tom Cruise & the Mummy
Kingsman 2
Dunkirk

Is it possible that movie Ares was first filmed to look like the Lego version and then it was reshot?

Split's score is haunting and beautiful.

Listening to it now.

How's the 3D in this?

MifuneFan · 06-04-2017, 01:55 AM

Between this, and House of Cards, I think I may have the hots for Robin Wright

AaronJ · 06-04-2017, 01:56 AM

It's interesting watching the different reactions of Steve and Diana. Steve is essentially jaded, he knows the war is happening and how terrible it is. Diana is horrified by it. She's never seen anything like this before. It was fascinating watching them react in different ways.

You can go to the Wonder Woman 3D thread to see. From what I've been reading, it's medium.

There are some great action sequences. I mean, it's Wonder Woman in World War 1! She kicks some serious ass.

Now whether that means you should go to Imax or not, I can't answer.

Loved it. For me, the best comic book movie since The Dark Knight. Gal Gadot is wonderful. When she smiles, she lights up the screen. Great looking film. The music score is perfect; same composer that did Hacksaw Ridge and I loved that score as well. Wonder Woman is a winner all around. A very strong 4.5 which I will bump up to a 5 for the poll.

Her smile is crazy beautiful. That's the only way I can describe it.
