Wonder Woman Reviews: 11 Early Reactions You Need To See

2. The Best DCEU Movie Yet... By Some Distance

Unsurprisingly, given all the praise critics have been heaping on the movie, it is being labelled the best of the DC Extended Universe to-date. That might not be saying too much really, because Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Suicide Squad all endured (to varying degrees) poor critical responses, which opened up the fan v critic debate.

Still, it's very promising that this is the best of the bunch so far, and that it's not just a token comment but because it is genuinely good, not just 'better by comparison to those films we hated'. It'll be interesting to see what the fan response is upon release, but this does seem like the DCEU film we've been waiting for.
