User Reviews

a good effort, finally

Finally the series comes to what it should be, a believable story and good effects, although they are still campy in some ways. But there is an improvement. When wonder woman is doing her thing they added a special sound to the score to warn you that she's doing wonderstuff. It's much better this way.

Not only that, it's been a while that we have seen her plane, that was cheesy as hell. Wonder woman do walks around and jumps over hedges and gates. Fightscene's are also a bit better but what still is laughable is the fact that she uses her lasso to catch the bad people.

The acting here was also up to point. It all looks great and the story is rather believable even as it can't happen in real life.

A lot of fans prefer season 2 and 3 but this here clearly shows that the production team has found what they were looking for.
