The story of the sensational Wonder Woman movie is basically simple. As the princess of the Amazon, Diana has been trained to be an unbeatable warrior.

Determined to stop the threat, she becomes involved in an epic war while discovering the strength of her powers, and her destiny. The action is intense, and the battles will have movie goers on the edges of their seats.

The movie begins on the island of Themyscira in The Amazon. While a young Diana trains, and becomes the toughest warrior on the island, old fans will root for their hero, and new fans will discover someone new to cheer for.

The stunt actors perform their feats with style, and flair, and the action is excellent from start o finish.

The romance in the movie between Diana and Steve is filled with chemistry, and their first meeting is bound to be remembered in the history of Hollywood. As the characters fall for each other, the audience will be falling as well. Etta Candy is Steve’s secretary, and made for making sarcastic comments. Her delivery, and tone are the perfect comedy relief. Steve’s friends consist of a polyglot spy, an American smuggler, and a Scottish sniper. Their interactions are yet another delightful storyline to provide even more depth to the storyline.

The special effects are marvelous, and draw viewers right into the screen.
