Wonder Woman [Blu-ray]

I stand by my title, this is by far one of the best super hero movies of all time. Gal Gadot is perfect as Wonder Woman however it goes beyond that; every character brought their all and were on their A-game, the script was perfectly written, the score and music were awesome, and there was so much heart in this movie. I love that this is set in Workd War 1 and Chris Pine is a perfect Steve Trevor aka love interest for Diana; they have incredible chemistry in battle and in romantic/emotional scenes. Their romance doesn't feel rushed or paper thin either, it's intense. Chris Pine's group of military personnel that goes with him are also cool to watch and add to the movie. I like that the beginning explains Wonder Woman's origins but doesn't become an origin story. Her home island is where Steve Trevor crashes his plane, then he convinces Wonder Woman to fight with him against evil (she's consumed with finding and defeating Ares, god of war). Her mother reluctantly banishes her and she fights the Germans and also plays her role as Diana Prince brilliantly too; she's new to society and it shows in this movie. In a way, I think Steve Trevor brings out Diana's humanity being a Demigod and all. The plot is actually a very interesting one, the German villains are truly evil here. The action here is also amazing .Towards the end of the movie when the true villain is revealed, Ares (who disguises himself very well and really tries to mess with Diana's mind) , there's also the sacrifice that Steve Trevor makes to help stop Ares and the Germans is just a tearjerker and you can feel Wonder Woman's heartbreak. This movie shows how and why Diana decides to become a hero and is more than just an action packed CGI fest with no story. I think director Patty Jenkins made Gal Gadot the iconic Wonder Woman with this movie even though Linda Carter was great during her time in the role. I think this will stand the test of time, even though Snyders universe is done and they'll likely recast Wonder Woman in James Gunn's universe, this is a wonderful, top shelf Wonder Woman

I really enjoyed this film. What a great story and the cast was superb. The background provided about Wonder Woman’s early life really added to the story. Add in the beauty of Gal Gadot, portraying Wonder Woman, and you have a winner. The movie has first class CGI and the movie was expertly directed and filmed. This is one of the best super hero films I have seen and I own them all. Wonder Woman comes out of hiding to help mankind to win and stop WWI. It is such a great story line that it keeps you on the edge of your seat just watching the film unwind. You keep wondering how one woman can make a difference in such a massive global war. Well, just sit back and let her show you how! I love the film and I rated it 5 stars. I also used my free digital copy to get the HDX Vudu version of the digital movie. I gave up on Apple films as I can play Vudu films on my Apple products, my Android products and on my Roku. This film is so good that I have been recommending it to all of my family and friends to see it. This is the best super hero film I have seen and it makes me want to see more of them made this way! I purchased the BluRay version and I got the Bluray disc, a DVD disc, and a digital copy that I got to receive a Vudu HDX version of the movie. The BluRay video and audio quality was perfect and even streaming the HDX version was great quality. This is a good way to get this movie. What I liked about this film is that the special effects were good but it combined in a good cast, direction and story line. I found the film entertaining and Wonder Woman was played perfectly by Gal Gadot. She portrayed a young Amazon Princess that was innocent and yet had super human powers and fighting skills. The majority of the cast was first class but she carried the film with her beauty, poise and acting skill! This is one character that can carry on a series of these films on her own talents or with other superhero characters. I cant wait for the next film to come out, I hope Gal Gadot continues to be in these films! When the next film comes out, I hope they maintain the quality of the storyline and the character. D.C. Comics has a real hit with this film and the main star and they should keep the action going in more films immediately. This film is a must see event with a great cast and storyline. Never have I seen a relatively new actress make such a smashing entrance in a movie as Gal Gadot. I really enjoyed this film and I am glad it is in our movie library to re-watch! If you like action movies and films about super hero’s then this is one film you should own!

Wonder Woman was the follow-up movie to Batman v. Superman and is told mostly as a flashback telling Diana's origin story. There are a couple of scenes set in the present that ties both to Batman v. Superman and the upcoming (at that point) Justice League movie, but most of this movie is set in the past. Most of the story in this movie is set during World War I. There are some scenes with a young Diana growing up on Themyscira, but the bulk of the story comes after Steve Trevor (played by Chris Pine) accidentally ends up in Themyscira while fleeing the Germans. He tells Diana about the war, and she is convinced that it is the doing of the god Aries, and sets out to find and kill Aries. From there it is mostly a period piece with Diana trying to integrate into early 1900s society, help fight in battles, and aid Trevor and his team to find a weapon being developed by an evil German doctor. There is a strong supporting cast including Robin Wright, Connie Nielson, David Thewlis, and other recognizable character actors. For those who get the 4K disc, it is a two-disc set with just the movie on the UHD disc, and all the extras on a regular blu ray disc. The movie looks and sounds great in UHD, especially if you have a large screen and a soundbar. There are over two-hours worth of extras including several behind-the-scenes features on making the movie, as well as several features on the overall character of Wonder Woman, and how the character has evolved over time. Overall, the movie is great. It has a great blend of action and humor. It has a message that it delivers without getting too preachy. Gal Gadot does a great job with the character. The script was good and all of the actors did a great job with their parts. It is probably still the best movie in the DCEU and is definitely worth the pick-up.

Wonder Woman est à mes yeux un des meilleurs films de super-héros !!! Bien sûr Gal Gadot est superbe mais c'est avant tout une excellente actrice qui incarne à merveille une héroïne forte et sensible à la fois. L'histoire est vraiment très bien écrite et j'ai surtout apprécié voir Diana découvrir l'Europe de 1917 avec ses coutumes / ses codes qu'elle a du mal à comprendre ou à accepter. Elle peut sembler naïve à certains moments mais j'y vois surtout la sensibilité à fleur de peau d'une femme qui ne comprend pas comment on peut tuer des femmes et des enfants ou ne pas écouter dans une salle le seul homme qui parle de paix. Gal Gadot parvient à exprimer une telle sincérité dans son jeu qu'elle est crédible du début à la fin de ce film. Peut-être que le fait que ce film a été réalisé par une femme y est au moins un peu pour quelque chose. Les images sont quant à elles superbes avec des couleurs qui correspondent parfaitement à l'époque décrite dans le film. L'utilisation de ralentis pendant certains combats est réussie et permet de profiter à fond des scènes en question. Quant aux effets spéciaux, ils sont parfaits tant ils s'intègrent harmonieusement à l'histoire. Rien à redire non plus concernant les autres personnages, aucun n'est simpliste ou caricatural. Ils sont en plus incarnés par des acteurs doués qui n'en font pas trop. Un autre point que j'ai particulièrement apprécié dans ce Wonder Woman c'est que les interrogations existentielles de l’héroïne n'occupent pas une place démesurée comme dans certains autres films de super-héros. Certes Wonder Woman s'interroge sur qui elle est et quelle est sa place dans le monde mais ces questionnements ne sont pas trop présents tout au long du film. Pour résumer, Wonder Woman vous ravira autant pour la qualité de l'histoire, le jeu des personnages et les effets spéciaux au top !!!

Gal Gadot is stunning as Wonder Woman, dominating almost every moment she's on screen apart from a few nice moments from Chris Pine, and there are a lot of great scenes, no mediocre scenes and this isn’t easy stuff. She doesn’t walk the fine line between female and strong, she shows us there is no line – she weaves the gordian knot of a real woman with no redundant threads and no missing threads. Similarly this is a coming of age movie, an action movie and an origin story woven together seamlessly. Unlike many action movies you know exactly why she's fighting and what she’s feeling in that moment and at the same time those action scenes are breathtaking, numerous and segued into and out of elegantly. And how she moves you have to see to believe, and not just in the action scenes – She’s elegant, lithe, powerful and determined, her acting doesn’t stop at the neck, it doesn’t even pause there – Her body language is perfect. I’d say that as superhero leads go they don’t get any better than this, but that would be understating it – There are awards she’ll win and that the movie will win that you’d expect a superhero movie to be in the running for. It should get most if not all of those. The only question is how many of the non-genre-specific awards it, and more specifically she, will get. I hope she gets the Oscar that any perfect performance deserves, especially given the challenging nature of playing an icon, a physically demanding role, no doubt a lot of green screen, and a character so far out of the norm both in nature and nurture. It's very difficult to find fault with this movie. The sound (at least in the cinema) is excellent, the score stirring, the 3D so good that it was unnoticeable, the special effects and cinematography outstanding and the performances of the supporting cast are almost without exception very good. As superhero movies goes this is a masterpiece on par with Avengers Assemble or X-Men: Days of Future Past. However, the smaller cast and the tightly focused well-crafted central story, Diana's story, lifted into the stratosphere by Gal Gadot's breathtaking performance, make it stand out from the rest – This is a masterpiece amongst all movies.

Wow, was ein geiler DC Superhelden Film. Der erste der aber echt locker mit Marvel mithalten kann. Erst Mal hauen einen die 3D Effekte so was vom Hocker wie ich es zuletzt bei Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2 oder Thor Ragnarök im Kino gesehen. Die Farben genauso gut, der Humor sehr gut. Die Action extra klasse. Gal Gadot spielt die Wonder Woman absolut glaubwürdig und die Erzählung wie sie zur Heldin wird ist gut gelungen. Aber die Kämpfe und Action da blieb mir echt der Mund offen stehen. Vor allen der Endkampf zwischen ihr und Hardes dem Gott des Krieges sehr gut gelungen. Die Musik also der Score auch gut. Warum nicht von Anfang an so DC und Warner? Wieso musste erst so jetzt erst recht schwache Filme kommen wie Sucide Squad oder Batman Vs. Superman? Ihr könnt es doch auch wie ich jetzt gesehen habe auf den selben Level wie Marvel. Eigentlich habt ihr sogar die bessere Charaktere. Wie man merkt bin ich sowas von begeistert das ich es kaum glauben kann, das ich einen DC Film gesehen habe. Jeder der Superhelden Filme so gerne sieht wie ich, wird den Film richtig gut finden. Auch Chris Pine spielt seine Rolle gut. Viele kleine Gags sind verteilt. In meinen Augen hat auch dieser Film kaum Schwächen und jetzt freue ich mich erst Recht auf Justic League nächste Woche. Meine Güte waren das geile Szenen wie Wonder Woman durch ihre Gegnerschar sich kämpft. Klar viel CGI aber das hat Marvel auch. Mit sehr guten Gewissen kann ich diesen Film empfehlen und nur hoffen das DC jetzt dieses Level halten kann. Wenn Wonder Woman schon so gut war wie wird erst der Solo Film von The Flash oder Batman? Yeah, DC ist auf den richtigen Weg. Endlich, endlich. Aber der Film sollte man sich zu Hause wenn es geht in 3D ansehen. Was da alles aus dem Fernseher auf einen zukommt. Gewehrkugeln, Schwertspitzen schauen raus und so weiter und so weiter. So muss ein 3D Film sein. Auch das Steelbook ist super gelungen. Gute Motive außen und innen. Auch kann man den Titel und das Zeichen von Wonder Woman gut fühlen. Kann nur sagen, hier stimmte meiner Meinung nach Preis und Ware. Edit: (24.11.2017) Meine Güte habe ich wohl Glück gehabt als ich mir diese Version des Film bestellt habe und auch bekommen habe. Steht jetzt hier echt ein Preis von knapp 60 Euro? Ich habe ihn diesen noch damals für 33 Euro bekommen. Wusste gar nicht das Filme so in Wert steigen können. Sachen gibt es.

ho atteso anni per vedere Wonder Woman approdare al cinema e devo dire che nonostante le altissime aspettative, questo film è riuscito a sorprendermi e a galvanizzarmi. si tratta di un film di origini con una Diana ingenua, pura, che vuole trovare il suo posto e che diventa pian piano la Wonder Woman che conosciamo. La trama è perfetta e ti permette di vedere il nostro mondo con gli occhi meravigliati di una creatura candida e innocente. Ti permette anche di vedere la guerra e la sofferenza sotto un altro punto di vista, più viscerale, di sentirla e nonostante nel film il nemico è il dio della guerra, ci si rende conto quanto male ci sia stato nella realtà. è un punto di vista più umano rispetto a tutti gli altri cinecomics nonostante chi porta questa umanità proprio umano non lo è. La fotografia è eccezionale così come le coreografie di battaglia, l'azione è incalzante mentre Diana diventa sempre più Wonder Woman accompagnata da una colonna sonora d'effetto. Gal Gadot è wonder woman e la regista è riuscita a dare quel messaggio di speranza e di forza, quella luce che il personaggio porta nell'universo DC. voto: 10!!! tra i contenuti speciali, la scena che sarebbe dovuta essere nei post credit con una Etta Candy che apre la strada alla trama di Justice League.
