Wonder Woman 1984

             Just when you thought 2020 couldn't get worse, Warner Brothers finally releases this horrible sequel. They may have struck gold with the first film but this one is not even worth tin.  

           Gal Gadot returns in the title role and really tries hard to make the film work but there are just too many problems to overcome. The script is terrible. You can forgive a movie based on a comic book to defy logic but within its own context, it still has to make sense.  Nothing about this story makes sense or has any sense of logic to keep the viewer engaged (unless you are a 9-year-old girl who will probably love it).

          Chris Pine as love interest Steve Trevor from the first film, also returns. He should be about 70 years old or so by now but the script finds a silly way to bring him back (at a price that is eventually important).

           Pedro Pasqual is the main villain and his acting is so bad, you're better off watching him in "The Mandalorian". Kristin Wiig also co-stars and any of her "Saturday Night Live" characters are better than her role here.  At times the sets and CGI are so bad, they look like they were done in director Patty Jenkins backyard. I just can't say enough how bad this film is. As usual,
DC comic films just can't complete with far superior Marvel films.

              The two central themes of the film are truth and wishes. Truth is, I wish I could get back the two and a half hours I wasted watching this mess. In theaters and HBO Max.
