 Hey guys, we just got out of the Sydney premiere of Wonder Woman. We got freebies, it was awesome. I'm Dres. I'm Jared. We're from So Is It Any Good, and this is our review on Wonder Woman. So Wonder Woman tells the story of Diana, Princess of the Amazons. She is living in an island paradise, and then this American pilot fresh lands into the water. She saves him and he tells them of the horrors of World War I. Diana needs to do something. So they grab a boat back to civilization, or our civilization, and I go to find Ares. Ares the God of War, who Diana thinks is behind everything. The movie stars Gal Gadot as Diana, Wonder Woman, but they don't actually use Wonder Woman. No. We don't hear it at all. It's just Diana, or Diana Prince. We got Steve Trevor played by Chris Pine. Yep, in full Captain Kirk mode. Captain Kirk mode? And it reminds me of Steve Rogers, Captain America. A little bit, a little bit. How much does he pitch? Yeah, he's got the same haircut. Apparently everybody in World War I had the same haircut. True. I reckon he probably could have played Captain America. Yeah. He certainly shows off his muscles. Yes, you're going to like that, girls. Yeah. He does get quite nude. We got Robin Wright as well, and we have Connie Nelson and Danny Houston, but you have to watch this to see what those characters are. So what did you think, Chris? It kicked serious arse. Sorry, Marvel, but DC has packed a good punch and they're taking over. Oh, my God, this is a fourth film. So we had Superman, we had Batman vs Superman, Suicide Squad, and now we have Wonder Woman with Justice League on the way. Yep. Friggin loved every little second of this movie. Gal Gadot is phenomenal. It's amazing. Her screen presence, her beauty, I couldn't get over it. I don't know where they found this woman, but she is bringing together their extended universe like nothing else. Oh, definitely. She plays that good mix of tough as nails, but innocent and naive about the world and you just believe every second of it. Oh, definitely. She really draws you in. Would you say this is probably the best they've done so far? Most definitely. It has down the best DC movie to date in the official extended universe. Oh, man, it was so good. Funny throughout, the Chris Pines really funny. He was great in it. And from the get go, their chemistry is amazing. Yeah, all of the sidekicks, the secretary, the three guys that they're bringing to help them with their mission are awesome. Yeah, you know what I love the most about it was in Batman vs Superman, we saw that photo with like an old photo with all of them lined up. So we wanted to know a little bit more and you get to find out who's behind that team, what is significance of the photo. Yeah, it was so, it was so good. I think the romantic aspect of Steve Trevor and Diana was great. It was the whole time I'm like, kiss her. Kiss her, kiss her, please. Or I'll go kiss her, but somebody kiss her. Please, she's so good, but yeah, blown away still, man. I'm just like, I didn't even know what to say because it's such a good movie. I think it probably has some issues in the end. I think it hits a good climax about halfway through the movie. The battle on the front is probably the stand-up for me where she gets up out of the trench and starts kicking ass. That's probably the highlight of the movie and there's a good probably hour after that. So it kind of loses steam a little bit for me at the end, but still really solid. Favorite parts? Favorite parts. I won't take that away from you with what you said. I think probably my favorite part was the ending. It was a huge big battle with Diana and the main villain of the film, which I'm not going to give too much away, but it was so intense. It kept you on the seat. I think, yeah, it did have highs and lows throughout the film, but the ending, I think, for me, went out on a bit of a high. That's good. What did you think? It's your favorite scene. My favorite scene was the front, trying to save a village from the Germans and Diana's just like, fuck this and drops her cloak. It's also the first time you see her in the full Wonder Woman get-up, so they got that awesome shot of her just kind of marching through it. Yeah. And that song, man. I love that. I want to walk down to my wedding, just down the aisle having that song playing. Yeah, for sure, man. I'm sure your fiancé would be fine with it. Yeah, I think she'll like that. Low lights. Whether any. Low moments. Personally, no, I didn't think there was any low moments for me. It was just all highs. It was getting high. I think every time there was supposed to be a low moment, we'd see a girl's face in. It was just like, oh, so dreamy. So much in love. Yeah, what about low moments for you? I didn't like the overuse of slow-mo. A lot of the fight scenes, they tend to do some extended slow-mo shots. They're very cool, but after like 12 of them, you're kind of, all right, keep going. That seems to be the way that the Amazon women fight. And in the beginning, it was weird. The CTI was a little bit ropey on some of those scenes on the beach when they were supposedly flipping off horses and whatnot. Obviously, that's hard to do, but you're 20 minutes into the movie, you expect them to at least front-load the good CGI. It was crazy, like they did slow it down, but then you could see sort of the errors. And then it was sped up weird. So, yeah, that kind of took me out of it a little bit. And as I said, the final battle didn't meet the high of the middle battle for me, but it kind of gets to a point where there's just powerful people shooting stuff. Energy at each other after that. Explosions and fighting, yeah. So, like, that part I didn't love, but it was still awesome. Without giving too much away, it's her origin story, but you don't find out everything. There's still so much more behind it, because her mother's holding back some of the things. But the good part is that we find out along with Diana, so it's in that sense, it's a true origin story, because even she doesn't know the extent of her powers, so she's finding out along the way. True, true. I think watching it unfold through her eyes was probably one of the best bits as well. Yeah, those eyes, man. Oh, she's so good. Let's all just think about her eyes for a minute. Oh, I love her so much. Girl! So, all in all, solid effort DC. Big ups to Director Patty Jenkins. She knocked it out of the park with this one. It's definitely the best in the DC Extended University thus far. Final thoughts? Final thoughts. This is for you, gal. I know you're married with a child. I'm about to get married, but if there's any way we can be together, I love you. Look, I love Wonder Woman. I thought it was a magnificent film. Big yes. Big yes from me. Big yes from me. And big yes for gal. Perfect. Anyway, guys, it comes out this Thursday. June 1st, so go see it. I'm Dries. I'm Jared. We're from So Is It Any Good.
