A character that finally has her own big feature movie, a movie 75 years in the making!</p> <p>When DC first launched their expanded-cinematic-universe, many fans were not thrilled with the start of this cinematic universe. I personally enjoyed <a href="https://comicattack.net/archives/101892"><em>Man of Steel</em></a>, even though some people argued that <em>Superman</em> was too moody and depressing. That film was followed by <em>Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice</em>, and fans as well did not react to well to that movie either. I have parts I like about the movie and other parts I can’t stand. I did not like the portrayal of <em>Lex Luthor </em>and how they forced Doomsday into the movie. <em>Suicide Squad</em> had its issues, and many people seemed to give up on DC Comics setting up this expanded-cinematic-universe. Many fans saw <em>Wonder Woman</em> as the last chance for this cinematic universe to work and finally give us a movie in this universe that blows audiences away with action, story, and character development.</p> <p>Set in the DCEU (<em>DC Extended Universe)</em> established by the movies <em>Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice</em>, and <em>Suicide Squad</em>, <em>Wonder Woman</em> is an origin story, and the best film by far set in the DCEU. <em>Wonder Woman</em> follows Princess Diana, played by the beautiful <strong>Gal Gadot </strong>(<em>Fast Five, Triple 9</em>) from her childhood on Themyscira through her transformation into the iconic <em>Wonder Woman</em>. A young Diana grew up on Themyscira as the daughter of the land’s ruler, Queen Hippolyta, played by <strong>Connie Nielsen</strong>, and trained under the warrior training of her aunt, General Antiope, played by <strong>Robin Wright</strong>. But everything she knows changes when a man named Steve, played by <strong>Chris Pine</strong> (<em>Star Trek Beyond, Hell or High Water</em>) crash lands in the water just beyond Themyscira’s shores. Steve tells Diana about the first world war, which Diana believes it is Ares (the God of War) being the reason of the war and all its devastation. Steve and Diana travel to Europe to assemble a team and set off to fight against the malicious General Erich Ludendorff, played by <strong>Danny Huston</strong> (<em><a href="https://comicattack.net/archives/94172">30 Days of Night</a>, <a href="https://comicattack.net/archives/1977">X – Men Origins: Wolverine</a></em>) and his scientist Doctor Maru a.k.a Doctor Poison.</p> <p>I’m going to dive right into the director, <strong>Patty Jenkins</strong> (Director of <em>Monster </em>starring <strong>Charlize Theron</strong>). You can tell that she is someone who has a talent for directing characters, and not so much the big budget superhero films we usually see. By this, I mean the movie is character driven and not so much action driven. The characters are pushed by story, motives, and not overblown action sequences that move the story along. It tones down all the CGI and action for a very compelling story.</p> <p>It is not your typical superhero origin story. <em>Marvel </em>has setup the typical origin story with films like <a href="https://comicattack.net/archives/86120"><em>Iron Man</em></a> and <em>Doctor Strange</em>. Something happens to guy, something happens to another guy, one guy is good, the other guy is bad, we both get powers, now let’s fight. It is an origin story but it takes that basic formula and throws it right out the window.</p> <p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="https://www.movieposter.com/posters/archive/main/236/MPW-118424" width="545" height="269" /></p> <p>The majority of the film takes place long before the events of the DCEU. This allows Jenkins and screenwriter <strong>Allan Heinberg</strong> plenty of room to explore the evolution of Diana without too many constraints placed on it by existing in a larger superhero universe. Gadot brings the many sides of Diana to life beautifully; her fish-out-of-water humor stands out the most. It makes for some funny screen moment when traveling to the human world for the first time, there’s plenty about London and the modern ways of life that Diana has never experienced. Gadot plays each of these moments with humor, innocence and curiosity. Rather than making Diana’s innocence or ignorance the entire joke, these moments shine a new light on certain aspects of our humanity.</p> <p>Pine as Steve was real fun to watch. Gadot and Pine have almost near perfect chemistry together. I also really like how this movie did not force a love interest on our main character. It felt organic, easy going, and it didn’t get in the way of our story. Also, Pine has his own discovery of what it means to be a hero, and it is developed through teaching and learning from Diana. Unlike the stereotypical female romantic interests in male-led action films, Steve has his own journey of self-discovery over the course of the movie.</p> <p>Even though the villains in the movie do play a role, it is a role that feels just a little cartoonish and not as threatening as previous villains in other superhero films. This isn’t a spoiler, but Ares does play an important role in the film, but he doesn’t come off as menacing until well into the final act of the film.</p> <p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="https://i1.wp.com/desktopwallpapers.us/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Wonder-Woman-Widescreen.jpg?resize=1920%2C1200&ssl=1" width="546" height="341" /></p> <p>In addition, this film is very colorful and gorgeous to look at. I like how DC set up this dark tone universe, and I do think it works for some of their characters, such as <em>Batman</em>. On the other hand, not all their movies have to have this dark setting. Things only have that dark setting when it calls for it. Such as, the battlefields of World War one.</p> <p>Overall, the film had humor, it was inspirational to everyone. Men, women, and children of all ages will enjoy this. I said to myself in the theater, “This is the type of film I would take my daughter to see if I had one.” I believe this movie is bigger than that, I believe this is the type of film everyone will enjoy.</p> <p>It’s funny, action packed, character driven, has a great cast, this is what the DCEU really needed at the moment. Gadot is literally the perfect casting choice for <em>Wonder Woman</em>. She’s bold, beautiful, and she is the whole sha-bang.I haven’t enjoyed a DC film this much since 2012’s <a href="https://comicattack.net/archives/90753"><em>The Dark Knight Rises</em></a>. Definitely the best movie in the DCEU, definitely one of the best movies of the summer, and in my opinion one of the best superhero movies ever! I believe this movie earns a perfect rating a…</p> <h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>10 out of 10!</strong></h1> <p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter" src="https://joetalksgm.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/10-stars.png" width="501" height="56" /></p> <p>I had a blast with this movie. My question to you is does this film have you even more excited for the upcoming <em>Justice League</em> movie, and which summer blockbuster did you enjoy more, <em>Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2</em> or <em>Wonder Woman</em>? I’m curious to know what you’ll choose. Check out <em>Wonder Woman</em> if you haven’t already or see it again, and while I have you here please feel free to check out my very first post and video here at <em>Comic Attack</em> and why I believe <strong>Gal Gadot</strong> is the perfect choice for <em>Wonder Woman</em>.

When actors and actresses like <strong>Chris Hemsworth</strong>, <strong>Chris Evans</strong>, and or <strong>Gal Gadot</strong> step into their iconic roles as <em>Thor</em>, <em>Captain America</em>, and <em>Wonder Woman</em>, they’re bringing comic book characters to life in a way that fans have only seen on a page, television, movie screen, cartoon, or in their imagination. That’s why it’s so cool and kind when these busy actors and actresses take time out of their schedule to suit up as their superhero characters and meet some young fans.</p> <p>Tom Holland is the latest actor to make a stop at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles to cheer up some kids who could really use a superhero at their bedside. This isn’t the first time Holland has done such a generous deed. I remember some time last year that Holland as <em>Spider – Man</em> was in Atlanta, but the actor recently found the time to swing by the local Egleston Children’s Hospital in costume. Co-star <strong>Jacob Batalon</strong> (<em>North Woods</em>), who’ll be playing Ned Leeds, also joined Holland that day.</p> <p>At Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Holland went around the hospital in his full <em>Spider-Man</em> suit to meet and greet kids, take pictures and sign autographs, and the hospital has shared a video of the actor’s visit to pull on your heartstrings.</p> <p class="responsive-video-wrap clr"><iframe loading="lazy" width="1200" height="675" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Kt04MiGUTdw?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p> <p>It’s always cool to see amazing actors using their kindness to spread a little love, and there’s a good chance that those kids won’t soon forget the day Spidey came to visit them.</p> <p><em>Spider-Man: Homecoming</em> is directed by <strong>Jon Watts</strong> and starring <strong>Tom Holland</strong>, <strong>Marisa Tomei</strong>, <strong>Michael Keaton</strong>, <strong>Robert Downey Jr</strong>, <strong>Donald Glover</strong>, and <strong>Zendaya</strong>. <em>Spider-Man: Homecoming</em> will swing into cinemas on July 7, 2017.</p> <p> </p> <p>Nile Fortner<br /> nilefortner@gmail.com</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://comicattack.net/movie-multiverse-tom-holland-may-be-the-nicest-actor-to-ever-play-spider-man/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
