10 Best Movie Posters Of 2017

5. Wonder Woman

This was the 2017 movie which seemed to prove everyone wrong. It was a DC Extended Universe entry which earned almost unanimously positive reviews; it was a female-fronted, female-directed blockbuster which proved every bit as a big a commercial success as its masculine counterparts.

If we're entirely honest, Wonder Woman wasn't really the earth-shattering masterpiece some have declared it to be; it's an efficient and entertaining superhero origin story which, beyond the gender of its title character, doesn't really do much that other films of its ilk haven't done before. Even so, there's no denying its tremendous charm, thanks in no small part to the endearing central performance from Gal Gadot, who does her best work to date under the direction of Patty Jenkins.

As has become the norm, Wonder Woman boasted not one but a slew of posters, and for the most part they're a cut above the standard Photoshopped superhero one-sheets. However, this particularly striking poster seems to tick all the boxes, emphasising the heroine's strength and courage as well as her grace and beauty, and making Gadot's use of the bullet-proof bracelets every bit as iconic as that of her forebear Lynda Carter.
