Movie spotlight
A botched store robbery places Wonder Woman in a global battle against a powerful and mysterious ancient force that puts her powers in jeopardy.
In 1984, Diana Prince is living a quiet life, working at the Smithsonian Museum and secretly fighting crime as Wonder Woman. Her world is turned upside down when an artifact, the Dreamstone, surfaces, granting wishes but with unforeseen consequences. Diana finds herself reunited with a resurrected Steve Trevor, while also confronting the ambitious Maxwell Lord and the lonely Barbara Minerva, who transforms into the powerful Cheetah.
Wonder Woman 1984 received a mixed reception from critics and audiences, with praise for its visual style, action sequences, and the performances of Gal Gadot and Pedro Pascal. However, many found the plot convoluted, the pacing uneven, and the story less cohesive than its predecessor.
Praised for its vibrant visuals and strong lead performances, especially Gal Gadot's.
Criticized for a sprawling and sometimes unfocused narrative that struggled to match the original's impact.
The action sequences and emotional core were often highlighted as positives, despite plot shortcomings.
Google audience: Google users generally appreciated the film's ambitious scope and the return of Wonder Woman, with many enjoying the nostalgic 80s setting and the chemistry between Gadot and Pine. However, some found the storyline to be overly long and less engaging than expected.
The iconic mall scene where Diana is shopping was filmed at the historic Georgetown neighborhood in Washington D.C., with many of the storefronts digitally recreated to reflect the 1980s era.

Wonder Woman 1984 is solid where it counts, maudlin in the way its fans need it to be, and, similarly, just funny enough to be charming. For all that goes unsaid, the writing is even occasionally clever.

This movie is dumber than it should be. In short: it looks fantastic and the action is in perfect WONDER WOMAN style. The problems are with the plot, the attention to detail and coherence. I'm not saying this movie should be more realistic,...
Heroes are only as good as their villains. Nothing sums up the disappointment of WW84 more than this. Maxwell Lord & Barbara Minerva are two of the most dangerously dark psyches in DC lore, both fond of extremely nasty, deliberately soc...

It isn't as easy as saying 'Wonder Woman 1984' is a good or bad movie. The pieces are there, and there are moments I adore, but it does come across as a bit of a mess, even though the action sequences are breathtaking. If you're a fan of th...
