Like most superheroes, DC Comics’ Wonder Woman too was created during World War II. He Amazon warrior is a demigod and gets skills from her upbringing in the Amazonia and from powers bestowed upon her by the Greek Gods. Over the years, she has had many enemies from monsters to classic villains such as Doctor Psycho and Veronica Cale. The Wonder Woman movie is set during World War I as Princess Diana of Themyscira travels to London to end the war.
Wonder Woman was created to match the feminist movement in the early 20th century. So t was not all that strange to see all-women screenings last week, in the US. However, this seems to have upset many male fans, some of whom went on to cry about discrimination while others had some great suggestions and question for the theater in Austin, TX.

Wonder Woman Movie Reviews
Wonder Woman has earned raving reviews and has a high ratings on almost all review aggregating sites. With Superhero movies releasing all too often, the content was getting slightly repetitive. However, Wonder Woman brings a fresh feel and gets you hooked on right from its trailer. Here are some Wonder Woman movie reviews from around the world.
“Wonder Woman is a cut above nearly all the superhero movies that have been trotted out over the past few summers.” ~ Stephanie Zacharek, TIME Magazine
“Gadot radiates the goodness without sentimentality or wide-eyed winsomeness. Supergirl she ain’t. SuperGal she certainly is.” ~ Matthew Norman, London Evening Standard
“We can overlook how the third act yields to the blows-up-good formula of blockbuster franchises. For now, let’s just celebrate a superhero movie that runs on estrogen rather than testosterone.” Peter Howell, Toronto Star
“The major problem is its marathon duration of 140 minutes, way too long for a blockbuster noticeably bereft of sustained wow-factor spectacle.”~ Leigh Paatsch, Herald Sun (Australia)
“Gal Gadot is remarkable as Diana, with a fierce yet vulnerable quality to her. It is she who shoulders the film and takes it to great heights.” ~ Samrudhi Ghosh, India Today
