Wonder Woman first reactions – 'best DC movie yet'
The first reactions for ‘Wonder Woman’ are in, and it sounds like the DC universe might have found its new champion.
Early screenings of the movie happened in the US last night, and critics flocked to Twitter afterwards to hail it a resounding success.
Directed by Patty Jenkins and finding Gal Gadot in her first proper blockbuster role, it could be the antidote to the critically hammered ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ and ‘Suicide Squad’.
Happy to report 'Wonder Woman' is a blast and @GalGadot is fantastic. Her chemistry with Chris Pine is magnetic. Absolutely recommended. pic.twitter.com/VPW4QW3IhM

My reaction to @WonderWomanFilm : exciting, powerful, bold, epic, simply wonderful and – best of all – absolutely empowering.

Cried a few times – specifically when a young girl in my screening emphatically declared YES seeing Diana represent fortitude. #WonderWoman

WONDER WOMAN is great. My favorite of the recent DC movies. It's fierce, funny, well-written and badass. @GalGadot owns it. Her lasso FTW pic.twitter.com/rQ0ufZxWXP

Also, Gal Gadot is a legit movie star. Feel free to @ me.

Loved WONDER WOMAN. She reminds me of Christopher Reeve's Superman: true north superhero w/ no angst or cynicism, which is needed right now.

Gadot and Pine have great, funny banter together. The backdrop of WWI is bleak, but the characters never are. I rooted for them.

Wonder Woman is the DC movie I've been waiting for. It's exciting, inspiring, funny, and has some truly awe-inspiring action scenes.
