Mathew Buck: Film Brain

Quotes 

  • Linkara : I'll start from the comic book fan's perspective. This was heartbreaking. Where Justice League of America made its characters into jokes, this thing turned Wonder Woman into a Complete Monster. She flaunts the law, she threatens, extorts, tortures, and outright kills. When Alan Moore did this with superheroes, it was commentary on the medium. When this show does it, it's because it can't think of anything better to do!

    Film Brain : From a film perspective, it's rubbish. Adrianne Palicki is meant to convey an everywoman, but instead she gives us a psychotic nightmare of a protagonist that no one but the most twisted of audience members can relate to. The villain is hardly villainous, or even much beyond distasteful, and the pacing is about as even as a movie executive's balance sheet.

    Nash : And just from a human perspective, this show tries to push the idea that breaking the law and violating basic humans rights is perfectly justifiable if you're the good guy, without giving us much grounds to believe Wonder Woman is the good guy. It's so blatantly trying to push this message that I'd call it clumsy, except that would mean they were trying to hide it.
