Positives
-Gal Gadot as Diana/WW, without a doubt never phones it in, and plays it with great commitment.
-Cheetah, kinda reminds of Jamie Foxx as Max Dillion/Electro in TASM2, but with better writing, just wished we had a bit more of her as cheetah.
-the setting, The 80s setting was well done
-Lynda Carter’s cameo
-Liked the Martha theme from BvS Easter egg towards the end, even fitted with the scene.
-Enjoyed the climax with the golden armor.

Negatives
-2 and a half hours seemed too long.
-Steve Trevor’s return was a problem to be me because it wasn’t fully explored or addressed. Still Chris Pine didn’t do a bad job.
-Maxwell Lord was very OTT, and
-The Story could have been better

Overall I liked the movie, had its issues and was too long.
Good movie, but it could have been better. 7/10

Good review.

-Lynda Carter’s cameo....I read about that somewhere. Was there any indication that she will be in any future dceu roles?

2.5 hours of Gal Gadot. Yummy.

"-Maxwell Lord was very OTT,"

Yeah, I've seen Pedro Pascal in other movies (haven't seen The Mandalorian though) and he's good. Check him out as the smooth-as-butter con man in Prospect... he pretty much steals that movie.

In this movie, his character was just bizarre. Like he was afflicted with some form of ADD. I blame it on the writing and directing, although IMDB trivia tells me that one of the inspirations for his character was Nic Cage. So there's that...
