Wonder Woman.

[vash]

Whoa!! Very very hot.

That's all.

[sc_rufctr]

One of the best Super Hero movies I've ever seen but that's not a particularly high bar.

She looks physically perfect. (Lots of post production touch up I'd say)
All in all a great movie if you're into this sort of thing which I am.

I especially liked her humanity. Saying and doing the right thing. That's a good message.
The director Patty Jenkins really shone on this one. It could have so easily been another "Catwoman (2004)".

I think Gadot was 6 months pregnant for some of it so yeah, some video enhancement/changes were done. Gadot has never done of for me, but she's good in this and I'll admit she's gorgeous.

My gripe was that they needed a scene where Steve explained to her that a 20-something princess raised in a pre-BC technology lesbian commune might want to hold off on loudly criticizing everything about Western culture her first day. Our clothes are stupid (yet you've never seen snow), secretaries are slaves (you've never had a job), anyone who doesn't know Ottoman is an idiot, etc. It was understandable from her character, but no one calling her on it (especially after she mocked the sniper (who clearly had what we'd now call PTSD) was unbelievable, and annoying. She was lecturing a bunch of generals about war when she saw her first gun yesterday!

I doubt Sun Tzu ever saw a gun.
Haven't seen the movie yet, so I don't know the scene to which you are referring. The principles however, do not change.

Chris Pine had the pivotal role in the movie, but the true point of the movie was the development of Wonder Woman's character. We see her transition from a child to a adult. I found some of the scenes you mention not to be annoying, but amusing. A lot of people were sheltered as children and thrust into a very adult world after being raised by adults who would shelter us from harsh reality.

This is a coming of age movie for a younger audience. That said, I enjoyed it. A solid effort.

Well said. What do you expect from a comic book movie? She's mesmerizing for sure and makes a great Wonder Woman IMO. Gadot was Miss Israel in 2004.

[fintstone]

Personally, I am disappointed that Gadot's costume does not sport the traditional Wonder Woman red, white, and blue. She was a uniquely American hero like Captain America...but by choice, not birth. An immigrant that embraced the United States and our values.

[sandau]

The actress of Wonder Woman is just gorgeus!

[DanielDudley]

Let's just say she's a part of the NATO alliance.

And why the movie is banned in certain religion of peace countries.

You cannot apply the principles
if you do not understand the mechanics that are relevant.

Offence is the best defence, well that's all good and well, but if you march into a machinegun killbox, your offense is just retarded.
Never mind WW1 arti, Gas, aircraft, mud.

If there ever was a war that demonstrated that, it was WW1.

Thousands upon thousands were sent to their deaths by Generals in the rear, who moved around pieces on a map, for yet another push. I'm sure they had all read Sun Tzu's principles... After all, they were top brass.

Ok, So Wonder Woman can figure it all out in 2 days.. wonderous indeed.

[Brando]

Couldn't help but think of these guys after watching the movie. Pretty good overall with very few hints of SJW.

It's not necessarily patterned after the American flag, but it is red, blue and gold. It's just missing the white stars.

I wondered why they chose WW1 instead of WW2 (like the original Wonder Woman) who fought the Nazis. Different enemies in WW1 who are less likely to go to the movies?

[red-beard]

You would lose the whole German market. I don't think you can do Nazis and air the film in Germany.

[Shaun @ Tru6]

Fantastic movie. Loved it.

[rattlsnak]

I was looking at her pics and couldnt figure out where I had seen her before but then I remembered.. I just saw a movie last week with her in it that came about 2 years ago I think.. Criminal, with Ryan Reynolds and Kevin Costner.. Totally hot babe!!

WW1 is popular now because of the Centenary.
Loads of movies, games and other stuff has been made about WW1 in the last 5 years

She was in several of the "Fast & Furious" films too.
