Wonder Woman Review -or- The Power of the Fierce Feminine Gaze.

Make no mistake, Wonder Woman hangs on one thing: the performance of Gal Gadot and the expressions of her dark, aquiline, Israeli eyes. If you are not entranced with her intense innocence, her fierce resilience, or her empathetic grace, than you will undoubtedly shrug at this otherwise overly conventional and old-fashioned style superhero/fantasy flick. However, you will also be a weird outlier with no heart or soul. So... Good luck with that, you contrarian Philistine. 

Wonder Woman proves that if you can do one right thing really well, you can get away with mediocrity everywhere else and audiences will adore it. Heck, they may not even notice in the first place. And Wonder Woman does that thing every time Diana Prince, played by Gal Gadot, takes center frame and unleashes the power of her fierce feminine gaze.
