WW84 is a joke, but it's a fun one.

WW84 is entertaining, but unfortunately not as good as other DC films (or generally films of the superhero genre).

Storyline: Set in 1984, Wonder Woman tries to save the world once again from an unlikely enemy while she still seems to be thinking about Chris Pine.

Runtime stands at 2,5h which is too long but the pace of the film is good.

CGI is good throughout the movie and most the action scenes are well made. There's a bunch of great outtakes as well.

The cast is interesting-Pedro Pascal's overacting is a highlight- and Gal Gadot is stunning once again. Kirsten Wiig is also a good addition to the film, but the development of her character could have been more in depth so we can see her transformation being more justified.

On the contrary, the character of Pedro Pascal is well developed and I was impressed by the tension that he adds in the entire film. I was happy to see him switching between drama and comedy and many points go to him for keeping the film's pace interesting.

But the film lacks a strong villain and the performance of Gal was a bit dry.

Overall, it's a fun Sunday afternoon superhero flick which should have been 30 min shorter.

6,9/10.
