Description

Tune in for Arthur’s review of Wonder Woman 1984, a movie that he desperately wanted to love to no avail. This bloated and listless DCEU misfire is directed by Patty Jenkins (Monster, 2017’s Wonder Woman) and stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, Chris Pine as Steve Trevor, Kristen Wiig as Barbara Minerva/Cheetah, and Pedro Pascal as Maxwell Lord.

Spoilers start at 10:30
