”Why movie critics are in love with ‘wonder woman”

The long-anticipated “Wonder Woman” hits theaters this weekend, and the reviews are in. The great news: It’s better than “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.” Like, a lot better.

Many critics are saying that “Wonder Woman” (starring Gal Gadot and directed by Patty Jenkins) is not only one of the best superhero origin stories ever, but it’s also one of the best superhero movies ever.

The action is amazing, Gadot is amazing, Chris Pine and his blue eyes are charming, and Jenkins has made a watchable (and re-watchable) superhero movie that gives us hope for more satisfying installments in the so-called DC Extended Universe. “Wonder Woman” proves that women can direct action and lead a successful superhero movie.
