The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

If you are a fan of Wonder Women, the DC comics and if you enjoyed the movie that released this year then you might enjoy this animated version of Wonder Woman. There was one thing that didn't make sense was how on earth was a child formed from a clay and given life by Zeus.The voice acting was also good I liked the fact that Nathan Fillion who was the voice for Vigilante in DCAU and Green Lantern in few films was involved in this movie. Even the designs in the movie remind me of the DCAU TV shows.

This is a corny superhero movie with a somewhat cool direction. I actually liked the direction they went with one of the most iconic super-heroine in comic book history. And it does have some witty dialogue mixed in with some corny ones. Although most of the jokes are directed towards adults. It's actually a decent movie showing the origin story of Wonder Woman, like where she comes from and what she represents and all that. The animation is well done and the story and direction is fast-paced and entertaining. But also with enough development to at least understand where the characters are coming from and their characteristics. Some may find the plot to be ridiculous like out of some corny 70's flick and yeah, the plot is mostly predictable. But it still has enough entertainment value.7.2/10

If you like Wonder woman your in for a nice surprise. This film (and yes I said film because of it's live action feel)strikes at the core of Wonder Woman with brute force and modern appeal. The movie brings DCs greatest heroine to life with vivid animation that captures the best of your favorite comic book frames. Awesome animation. The characters are so substance rich that you'll forget your watching a "cartoon".Digging deep into the origin of Wonder Woman the film- makers have fun creating believable landscapes while holding to the mythical charms that endear us to the character of Wonder Woman. To put it plainly , Wonder Woman kicks a*s and does so with plain spoken angst.The movie even dabbles in giving us Wonder Womans approach to some of todays females while holding to true femininity. Great writing all around with audio that is completely in sync. This animated triumph gives hope to the Wonder Woman fan who is salivating for a serious live action film. Highly recommended, especially for the adult superhero buff.

In the 2009 DC Universe animated film, "Wonder Woman," the first noted super-heroine of any significance in modern superhero comic books is given her own beautifully animated first cinematic direct-to-video outing. It's a great animated movie, much like the great "Green Lantern: First Flight" (2009), which was released the same year as this film. One of the greatest things to be said about that earlier "Green Lantern: First Flight" is that it was far, far better than the live-action "Green Lantern" (2011) from last year.What's most incredible about that statement is that now, Wonder Woman is likely to experience the same fate, that a short animated film is likely to be far better than any live-action adaptation could ever be. Admittedly, while I'm largely a Marvel Comics reader and my favorite super-heroine is Fathom (as created by the late Michael Turner), I've always admired Wonder Woman, but at arm's length only. When watching this movie (and reading up on the history of the character), my interest for the character certainly deepened a lot more.Psychologist William Moulton Marston (who apparently also invented the polygraph machine) co-created Wonder Woman for DC Comics with his wife Elizabeth and their live-in mutual lover Olive Byrne, and she first appeared in "All Star Comics #8" in December of 1941. Wonder Woman was seen as a feminist icon, a kind of female Superman, yet still possessing the love and compassion that is unique of a woman. I also remember reading that some social critics accused the character of condoning the hatreds of men by women (misandry), promoting bondage fantasies and other aberrant sexual behaviors/fetishes, and also encouraging lesbianism (!?!). And despite Wonder Woman's obvious appeal to young female readers, there's also the tiny little fact that she just looks smoking-hot in that get-up (in case you haven't already figured it out yet, I'm a guy).Speaking of the movie, boy, is it entertaining and gripping. Like "Green Lantern: First Flight," "Wonder Woman" establishes itself in pretty quick-step tempo: on the island of Themyscira, a proud, strong race of eternally youthful Amazon women (based on the ancient Amazons of Greek mythology) live in peaceful seclusion from the evil Man's World (the rest of human society). A millennium ago, the malevolent god Ares (voiced by Alfred Molina), the God of War, was defeated in battle by Hippolyta (voiced by Virginia Madsen), queen of the Amazons, and sentenced to eternal imprisonment by the god Zeus (voiced by David McCallum) and Hera (Marg Helgenberger).Years later, an internal betrayal allows Ares to escape, and Hippolyta's strong, courageous daughter Diana (voiced by Keri Russell), earns the right to not only track down Ares and bring him to justice, but to escort downed fighter pilot Steve Trevor (voiced by "Firefly" Nathan Fillion) back to human civilization. And thus, Diana quickly earns her "Wonder Woman" namesake as she tracks down - using her patented, Amazonian-forged Lasso of Truth and indestructible bracelets - the nefarious God of War as he seeks to turn Earth into a graveyard."Wonder Woman" is fantastic! The film's story is apparently loosely adapted from a specific run in "Wonder Woman" comics called "Gods and Mortals" by artists George Perez, Len Wein, and Greg Potter in 1987. The voice acting by a first-rate cast made the film extremely watchable. Even more so, there's some strong character development here, one of the main criticisms I had with "Green Lantern: First Flight," which plunged head-first into the action without really letting us get to know who Hal Jordan (voiced there by former "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" star Christopher Meloni) was before he was given a power ring and thus became the Green Lantern. Keri Russell gives the film's best voice acting performance as Wonder Woman, whose character is tracked to the beginnings of her DC Comics super-heroine career. Additionally, Nathan Fillion gives the film's most enthusiastic performance as the wise-cracking hot-shot pilot Steve Trevor.Although it runs only at a brisk 74 minutes and is deftly directed by Lauren Montgomery (who also directed "Green Lantern: First Flight"), it's still an engaging, action-packed thrill ride of an animated superhero adventure. Its violence could be pushing it for a "PG-13" rating, so I'd be a bit more careful when watching this around young children. I can only hope that unlike last year's "Green Lantern," the live-action adaptation of "Wonder Woman" will be something worth watching more than once.8/10
