(Cappachino, 2009-11-21) I was really surprised by the animators who put the movie togather they really captured the essences of wonder woman and the whole amazon tribe. It was well put togather the story line surprised me cause it took you thru the history of wonder woman and where she came from.It was awsome relly hope they come with another editon like bring her sister to the scene lol
(Dustin Rhoades, 2009-11-12) I was kinda skeptical when I first heard about this DVD as Wonder Woman hasnt always been a favorite character of mine. But when you have very few options to see superheroes in movies cartoon or otherwise, you sort of have to watch what you can get. And this movie was a pleasant surprise. I thought not only was the voice casting done well (for an example of how not to do it watch that JLA New Frontier), but also the tone of Wonder Woman I believe was captured too. All in all, fan or no fan, if you love comics or superheroes this is a movie to see. Everyone I've showed it to male or female has enjoyed it!
(Ink Bleeder, 2009-10-21) I'm a huge Wonder Woman fan and received this DVD as a birthday present. Since Wonder Woman has never been given the star treatment of other comic book heroes(where is her live-action movie?), I felt that even an animated movie was long overdue, and looked forward to seeing the film. It's horrible. It's worse than horrible. It's the death of a classic, and the shredding of what was a strong, thoughtful, feminist role model for little girls. The logic errors are enough to put your teeth on edge (the Amazons have a supersonic invisible jet, but no guns? The God of War has been made impotent for generations, but wars continue to rage on earth? And where did all those Pegasuses come from, and since when do Amazons ride them ineffectually into battle?), but worst of all is the treatment of Wonder Woman herself. As originally conceived, Wonder Woman was, at her core, curious about the world of Man and eager to explore the cultural differences between Paradise Island and the United States. Well, no longer. In this film, she's a judgmental man-hater, nasty to other women, and a ruthless killer. The Wonder Woman of my childhood was a fierce patriot who always turned over the bad guys to the authorities. Granted, the storyline here is so implausible and convoluted that it's never clear if the bad guys are monsters or men, but her actions have nothing to do with justice. The film leads up to one big bloodbath, and Wonder Woman is on the side of no one but herself. Steve Trevor isn't the genial, obtuse love-interest; he's a rude, sexist frat boy. The elimination of anything even remotely admirable about the female characters in this film is so thorough, I could only conclude that it was deliberate; perhaps to assure that the intended audience would be angry, lovelorn teenage males, not small girls and others who long to see a leading female who is neither vampy nor vapid. Even Hera is reduced to a soft-spoken wife who urges the Amazons to listen to Zeus, the raging father, and spare the life of a rapist. I've never written a review on Amazon, but this film is so dreadful, I felt I had to do what I could to warn people to save their money. Wonder Woman deserves better than this!
(Donald H. Nguyen, 2009-10-19) I was in Blockbuster watching some beautifully animated movie with a bloody and graphic scene of fierce armored female warriors fighting a terrifying horde of beasts and men. It was akin to something you would see in "300" - it made "Troy" look like a kid's movie. My jaw was agape when this prologue ended, and the caption "Wonder Woman" appeared with a stirring musical score. I had no idea it was Wonder Woman and I've always been a WOnder Woman fan... so I had to buy it. The rest of the movie did not disappoint. Megan Fox called Wonder Woman a "lame" superhero... she needs to watch this movie.
(Michael W. Fisher, 2009-10-19) This animated movie is not for ids. There is an element of bloody violence all through it and small touchs of sexual innuendos. But for adult comic book afficiandos, this is a really good movie.
