This is what critics have to say on Wonder Woman 1984 movie:
Comicbook.com's Davis wrote, "I've seen #WonderWoman1984! @PattyJenks literally made an 80s movie in every way, making it so unique for today. It feels both bigger than the first WW while simultaneously more contained. Lots of Diana Prince and some epic Wonder Woman moments as @GalGadot literally soars!"
Fandango's Erik Davis shared the same feelings when he tweeted that Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman 1984 is an "absolute blast from start to finish. An exceptional complement to the first film, it's stuffed w/ heart, hope, love, action, romance & humor. @PattyJenks, @GalGadot & team delivered one of DC's best sequels. I was in tears when it ended."
IGN's Terri Schwartz wrote that he was the lucky one to attend the Wonder Woman 1984 movie screening, adding, "I adored it. The first Wonder Woman is my favorite of the modern DC films, and #WW84 makes all the smart next steps, telling a very human and very beautiful story for Diana Prince."
