Looks like it's a thumbs up.

Edit- But it's not any of the usual outlets yet.

Welp that's relieving.

Did it lift?

The @WonderWomanFilm is going to be a monster hit! Give @PattyJenks the reins for all the DCEU movies!

Kofi Outlaw ✔ @KofiOutlaw
.#WonderWoman is the fun, colorful, thrilling movie that both #DCEU Fans & @BatmanvSuperman haters have been waiting for! @GalGadot owns it!

I loved Wonder Woman. First act's a bit slow, but it's optimistic, emotional, and *gasp* funny. Best DC movie so far.

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

Dave Schilling
And Chris Pine. Goddamn, he's charming in this.

Alisha Grauso‏
Obviously an in-depth review coming, but I'm overjoyed to see a long-overdue ass-kicking ray of hope in the DCEU & her name is #WonderWoman.

Alisha Grauso
P. S. Do not @ me about Gal Godot. She kills it, that's it, end of story, take a seat.

Anna Klassen ✔ @AnnaJKlassen
#WonderWoman is the 1st film in the DCEU whose fight sequences don't feel entirely CGI/video game-esque, & that alone is huge accomplishment

Kate Erbland ✔ @katerbland
WONDER WOMAN: Easily my favorite DCEU film. Has the humor and heart the franchise so desperately needs. Gadot and Pine are charming as hell.

Jim Vejvoda ✔ @JimVejvoda
I'm now allowed to reveal I enjoyed Wonder Woman! It's really good. Has the heart & humanity DCEU needed. I'm not reviewing it FYI

Kevin Polowy ✔ @djkevlar
#WonderWoman is solid. Definitely a step up from the last few DC movies. Its retro war vibe makes it feel like their Captain America.

Erika @pottertardis
#WonderWoman is the best DCEU film so far. The heart of Gal Gadot's Diana powers it, and the shift from mythic into WWI story really works.

Still think it's weird that Pine isn't playing a leading role as an actual hero we'll get in several movies.
that's the most comic-accurate thing WB has done thus far.

A few more.


Best part, imho? #WonderWoman engages with the subject of war & its devastating effects better than ANY superhero film so far.

Easily the best of the DCEU. And I liked MAN OF STEEL. It's part CAPTAIN AMERICA: FIRST AVENGER and part "fish out of water" THOR 1.

A few more #WonderWoman thoughts: There's a *goodness* to Gal Gadot's WW missing from Henry Cavill's Superman. Makes a huge difference.

I feel like I should understand what you mean by that, but I'm at a loss. Not necessarily your fault, though. It is late for me.

Let's hope they're right.

To be fair, the movie could still get a rotten score. Those are just a handful of critics.

I do find it strange there's not even 1 negative one.

So far there are 11 critics that have enjoyed it. Still, this movie will be reviewed by over a hundred.

Boxoffice.com has upped their opening weekend projection from 83 to 93 million.

^ It will do $100mill plus IMO.

The DCCU summed up in one image for the moment-

At least it may still have a saving grace yet.

If it does 100 mil plus, that is 4 DCEU movies in a row that has hit 100. Impressive.

I'm still numb from what I just experienced. I need to digest it all but that film in my humble opinion is a best picture contender.

More RT critics are pouring in.

The UK critics, too.

I'm upping my predictions for JL.

It would be 5 including JL. But not really as impressive as you make out considering each one has starred (or at least featured) 1 or all 3 of the Trinity.

It will boost JL for sure. But I really don't care. Because it's not like Patty Jenkins (or someone new) has directed JL. And we all know Snyder's not going to make anything special there.

Those numbers are impressive, no mater what. But think what you will.

JL 175 OW for me.

hopefully I will not regret this, but I got my tickets already...

I really don't get what's impressing you so much. I'd personally be more impressed by 5 well received films in a row. But that's just me.

Sure don't see why it couldn't do 175 OW, given BvS did 166.

Ha! Bruce was an undercover DCEU fanboy all this time 😛

I'm not talking critically, just by the numbers. SS was well marketed and even YOU didn't think it would pull the numbers that it did initially. Even with the Joker marketed in the trailers, people didn't think it would hit past 600. Boy were you wrong. 😉

You do realize that MCU's new animated intro alone is now superior to all DC movies ever released by WB sans TDK?

MCU and animation doesn't sit right with me. 😛
