I enjoyed it but I had my first ever child-free afternoon and made popcorn.

I used to go to the cinema every week in the Before times.

Film was good fun, if 45m too long. Just good to see something new and exciting.

Thanks

It's fantastic. I can't understand why its had mixed reviews. The action sequences are thrilling and the performances are terrific. Loved Pedro Pascal as Max Lord.

Thanks

We've just watched it and thought it was terrible, weird and stupid! So disappointed as we love the first film.

Thanks

I thought it was shocking bad. And I really enjoyed the first one. I had managed my expectations because I've not been crazy about DC movies. Chris provided some comic relief and I liked kirstin wiig but all in all it was too long and a lot of bits made no sense.

Thanks

People who didn't like it - what about it didn't you like?

I'm debating giving it a watch... but it's expensive at the moment!

Thanks

I thought the first was good so interesting to hear everyone’s thoughts on WW84.

(I loved captain marvel too. I think films with an action female lead are brilliant for young girls and women. Wish I had that when I was younger; most female characters in sci-fi and fantasy were often just the love interest.

Thanks

Loved the first film; the second not so much. Lacked the warmth and plotting of the first film. The script wasn't as strong and it felt a bit boring.

Thanks

First one was great.
Second one was crap. And I can't stand Wiig.

Thanks

I sort of liked it but the YouTube Pitch Meeting on it really shows what I didn’t like.

Thanks

Went to the cinema to see it end of December, I really enjoyed it. My 9 yr old dd loved it my 6 yr old felt it was too long.

Thanks

HerRoyalNotness · 05/02/2021 03:14

A bit drawn out and not enough action. Nowhere near as good as the first

Thanks

AllAboutHallowsEve · 05/02/2021 20:30

I loved the film but that youtube video is hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks

I agree with PP. about 45mins too long.
Poor feminist message.

Which is a shame. Gal Gadot is a good Wonder Woman but DC just aren’t sure what they want to do with their franchises.

Watch it. Enjoy it. Take it for what it is

Thanks

@Rhynswynd Hahaha!!!! Never watched those before..slowly making my way through them now! Wowowwow

Thanks

Fucking shit

Thanks

AndreaMarteau · 10/02/2021 22:34

It's ok. Not as good as the first one but I don't care coz I'm a massive WonderWoman fan and have been since I was a kid.

My favourite bit was right at the end because I'm old. Wont give anything away though.

Thanks
