The best part of WonderWoman 1984 is its accurate portrayal of Reagan as a short-sighted, nuclear accelerationist buffoon.

Sadly, overall the movie is very predictable, though. I was able to predict all the major plot points before they happened. Only the interlude in the middle of the end credits surprised me a little.

DC grimdark. They have had little success doing anything more than exercises in CGI pointlessness. But gadot and pine are charming.

True enough, and there was enough riffing on 1980s fashion and pop culture to keep me amused. Really, what the movie needed was ruthless editing. Like so many other two-and-a-half hour superhero movies, it would’ve benefited from losing at least 30 minutes of footage.

Yep, and Marvel all too often falls into the same trap too. I found Endgame, for instance, to be interminable.

But I’m a pretty big Marvel fan with deep knowledge of the mythology going back to the 1960s. (I’ve been collecting Marvel comics since on was in junior high in the mid-1970s and still regularly buy a few titles every month.) And yet I still found Endgame interminable.
