Early reviews say it's as good as the first movie.

Preposterous premise, but I was so happy to be seeing a movie in a theater that I don't even give a fuck. All the thumbs up!

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

What a letdown. Its too long, there are moments when it kinda reminded me of Batman Forever ( Kirsten Wiig at the beginning, super clumsy and exaggerated, with a very cringe dialogue like ¨i like animal print¨), the story doesnt make sense even for a WW movie, the battle between WW and Cheetah is super weird, all those quick digital cuts and movements, poor cgi and bad lit. And dont get me started on what they did with Max Lord. Jeeeesus.

Its a shame because Gadot is great of course, and there are some nice moments but overall, this is a huge step down. I truly hope they bring someone else, Karyn Kusama would be fucking awesome.

Cheetah was so shoehorned into this. Remove her as an adversary and the movie barely changes.

I couldn't finish it. Gal Gadot and Chris Pine are extremely watchable but everything else is so weak. It felt like Kristen Wiig was doing an impression of Jamie Foxx in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
