Theron has put on muscle for roles before, and also happens to be a talented actor. That's two up on Gadot.

And Batman used to be drawn like a normal dude but no one argues that Christian Bale was too buff. Wonder Woman is a tall, broad-shouldered, muscular warrior.

So you've seen EVERY movie that Gadot as been in & deemed her unworthy of being Wonder Woman?




And your opposed to WW being sexy & being strong? And of you want to get real about it they are BOTH to short to play WW. Linda Carter was beautiful, Sexy & strong.

I've seen the two 'Fast & Furious' movies she was in. She's really bad.

Charlize Theron isn't sexy? And Linda Carter is shorter than Theron and Gadot. She was also about 15 or 20 pounds heavier than Gadot when she played Wonder Woman, because she wasn't a runway model playing at being an action star.

Charlize put on muscle? For which role? The last two movies I've seen her in were Mad Max: Fury Road and Prometheus. She's slender. She does not have broad shoulders. Everything you're putting forth is a straw man. If you're like her, that's one thing. But don't say she'd be the ideal Wonder Woman.

Some sites put Charlize at 5'9" — and I'm still pretty sure Gal is the taller of the two.

Where did I say that Theron isn't sexy? Once again can't a woman not be sexy & still empower women?

Wrong. Read the origin of Wonder Woman. More than a little creepy. The bondage motifs are not accidental.

Why are the only reviews coming out for this right now all Spanish? Did they not sign the embargo?

"They" (I suspect it may be the same guy) broke the embargo and posted two reviews, one of which basically summarizes the film and nothing more, while the other completely trashes it and says it has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

I smell a troll.

I saw a third one(with a different name and source), also in Spanish. I'm not paying them any mind, I just thought it was odd that 3 Spanish reviews popped up early, all in the same day.
