Is this the best DC Comics film since 'The Dark Knight'?
The first reviews of the eagerly-anticipated Wonder Woman movie are now in – and they’re mostly very good.
The superhero movie starring Gal Gadot hits cinemas this Thursday (June 2) – and has been hailed by one critic as “the best DC Comics film since The Dark Knight“.
At the time of writing, Wonder Woman has a “96% fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and an average score of 79 out of 100 on Metacritic.
However, The Guardian‘s critic is less impressive, arguing that the film has a “silly plot”, and claiming Gadot is “reduced to a weaponised Smurfette”.
Gadot’s debut as the iconic comic book character in last year’s Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice was also widely praised. Alongside Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, the film’s cast also includes Robin Wright, Connie Nielsen, Danny Huston, Ewan Bremner and former The Office actress Lucy Davis.
