Saw this yesterday, it's terrible. It lost me with that opening sequence, I just could not accept that little 11 y/o girl competing with grown women twice her age at an insanely dangerous ninja warrior coarse and beating them most of the way. Then to top that scene off, you have the 11 y/o girl firing a bow meant for a adult woman from horseback. The fact that she's amazonian just doesn't excuse the ridiculousness of that opening, which doesn't have much to do with the plot of the rest of the movie.
That wishing stone crap, the central plot of the movie, was just beyond stupid. Maxwell Lord made a terrible villain. Kristen Wig's character was cliched with poor motivation for her character to turn bad. The way they brought Steve Trevor back was so poorly thought out that it had unforeseen implications that surprisingly, no one involved in the movie caught. Bad CGI. Tumbling with the bad kid dummys in the convoy scene. And everything about the ending was ****. There seemed to be ZERO consequences from anything that took place. The story might as well never happened.
The funniest scene in the movie was Kristen Wig's character walking in the park while a dozen white guys tried to flirt with her, then cat call her, finally culminating in her beating the crap out of the guy that attempted to **** her in a prior scene only to be stopped by the homeless black guy. The scene felt like it belonged in a SNL skit. I also don't buy that she only hurt the rapist guy, she kicked him hard enough in the chest and head to send him hurtling 10 feet back! That guy was dead.
Nothing the actors did was bad, just terrible writing. I did like two brief scenes, flying through the fireworks and WW learning to fly. The mall scene wasn't bad but a bit cliched and poorly filmed and edited. WB was bound to loose money on this, corona virus lock down or not, this was a bad movie. I'm sure the lock downs will be blamed, not the writers and film maker's incompetence.
The DC films I'd rank- WW> Shazam> MoS> Aquaman> BvsS> Justice League> Suicide Squad> WW84.
I haven't seen BoP so I can't rank, but I'd probably put it last if I had.
