We're already starting to see Wonder Woman being praised by critics but we won't know if it's warranted until we see the film. My gut tells me there's probably an unconscious upward bias in the early reviews given the strong female lead, even if the critics themselves aren't aware of what they're doing.
shareYes, especially now with the Alamo Drafthouse controversy.
shareSo after years of people accusing "the critics" of being biased against DC films, now they're getting accused of being biased in favour of this one because there's a woman in it?
shareif using Rotten Tomatoes
subtract ten points for starring a female superhero
and subtract another 10 points for a woman director
so -20 to get real critic score
Seems to be the case. I am guess this film will either be 73% to 78% tops. the 9x% range is too high for it at the moment to be trusted. Overall I hear it's pretty good but not great but much better than BvS at least. Still will be fun to watch since I loved the intro song for Wonder Woman. Gets you fired up.
