A botched store robbery places Wonder Woman in a global battle against a powerful and mysterious ancient force that puts her powers in jeopardy.
What critics thought
The sequel to the beloved original landed with a notably mixed thud, starting with enthusiastic early reviews that eroded sharply after wide release. Where defenders found nostalgic, comic-book-page charm in its 1980s setting and Gal Gadot's performance, detractors argued the film sacrifices character, narrative coherence, and the confidence of its predecessor for bloated spectacle — with the 'wishes' conceit at the heart of the plot drawing particular skepticism about whether it ever becomes a dramatically convincing engine for a superhero climax.
“Wonder Woman 1984 is all about playing with magic and wishes and desires, only to see them lead to horrible ramifications, instant gratification and the revelation that lying is never without consequence. Those are some big swings and not every single one lands, but the ones that do are both joyous and genuinely worth pondering.”
Kate Erbland·IndieWire
“ambitions...just outside its grasp, but it seldom feels predestined or predictable — a preciously rare commodity in the genre.”
Jake Coyle·The Associated Press
“Patty Jenkins is behind the camera again, but this time without the confidence. Certainly some of the problems can be pinned on the uninterestingly janky script, a mess of goofy jokes, storytelling clichés and dubious politics.”
Manohla Dargis·The New York Times
“Her performance here has dignity and earned emotion”
San Francisco Chronicle
“The quality that made the original film such a delight has been squashed almost entirely.”
