5. Wonder Woman
($414,926,491.49)
Woo-hoo! I get to talk about a good movie (that’s about to be a deep luxury).
Wonder Woman is incredibly good. It’s entertaining, it’s deep, it’s funny, it’s earnest. It’s everything that DC needed. Gal Gadot is a real find, and she comes off as both intimidating and lovable. The supporting cast is deeply relatable and memorable. Hell, it’s a World War I movie! How many of those do we ever get? Not enough!
This is a war film about how war is the true enemy. And it isn’t overly preachy about that message! Ares is scary, and rightfully appears as the embodiment of brutal conflict. Dr. Poison is rad as hell; I mean, that gas mask scene, you guys. Chris Pine is very well cast, and he expertly pulls off his role. This is the only time in all of history that I have ever cared about – or liked – Steve Trevor!
And we’re getting a sequel to this movie! So we’ll get, like, Peter Dinklage as Dr. Psycho or whatever beloved nerd actor and somewhat forgotten Wonder Woman villain they choose. It’ll be fun!
