The story is okay, and I suppose that's what counts, but since the movie is all about Wonder Woman, you need a fairly awesome female to play her, and, although Gal Gadot has a cutsy-pie face sure enough, realistically she comes up short in the body department - not even close to Lynda Carter's awesome curves and bod, and that is really the story here. She also lacks in the musculature department, also not close to Sofia Boutella (Jayla in Star Wars Beyond), who has a magnificently athletic and muscular body and yet is still feminine and sexy. A cute face is not enough to be Wonder Woman; that mythical Amazon is a lot more than that. I notice, too, that when you compare Gadot's bikini pics with her in her Wonder Woman outfit, they pulled in her waist and pumped up her boobs to give her a sexier appearance, which she doesn't actually have. Body-wise, she's actually quite ordinary; there are many better built models & actresses than her around. Always makes me wonder how they pick these people, and what criterion they use. They're supposed to be getting a muscular, athletic person for this part, and they just got some ordinary model with a cute face - which strains the credibility of the character and therefore the believability of the character and the story. A similar mistake was made with ScarJo for the Major in GITS: beautiful girl, decent actress, physically terrific, but wrong for the part of Motoko because she's not Asian! In fact, she's as far away from Asia as you could get. It's like using Jackie Chan or Jet Li to play Robin Hood - both great physical characters, athletic, good actors, wrong for the part for obvious reasons. They could have done a better job for Wonder Woman than this Israeli actress;; for instance, check out Israeli model Bar Refaeli - much better in every category, physically; at least as beautiful, maybe more so, and a much better body. Don't know if she can act, but you get my point as to what Wonder Woman should look like. How the character physically appears is everything in this story; and Gal Gadot just doesn't measure up, and it's a shame that they have to doctor her physical appearance in the Wonder Woman outfit to give her credibility.
