I get what some critics (& friends) are saying about #WW84 - but I loved it. The first one had more iconic moments/rewatchable action but this was a solid follow-up that captures the same humanity and hope with a better set of villains. It’s clear @PattyJenks gets this character.
Compared to the first action-focused film, it’s further down the line toward drama as well as Snyder-verse unpacking of superheroism. General audiences might not embrace it the way they did the first one but I think it’s a better movie for sticking to Jenkins’ vision.
If you don’t think Jenkins gets the character, just remember that Diana “won” in WW with her fists and powers (because WB wanted a big actiony ending) and she “wins” in #WW84 with love, compassion, and reason.
I don’t know, maybe I’m just not objective anymore because I’m having a daughter in March and just love that these movies exist for her.
