As I watch, I will record my thoughts in real time below, so be aware that spoilers lurk ahead. Keen to revisit the movie, to see how well it holds up today, I am about to give Wonder Woman a viewing. At the time of its release, I believed it to be one of DC’s strongest animated movies, and for Wonder Woman newbies, a great introduction to the character. Released direct-to-video, Wonder Woman received a fairly warm critical reception back in ’09, and I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The film featured characters such as Steve Trevor, Queen Hippolyta, and Etta Candy, and focused on Wonder Woman’s battle against the Greek god, Ares. The film – which starred Keri Russell, Nathan Fillion, and Alfred Molina – was the fourth release from the DC Universe Animated Original Movies collection, following the success of Superman: Doomsday (2007), Justice League: The New Frontier (2008), and Batman: Gotham Knight (2008).ĭirected by Lauren Montgomery, and loosely based on George Pérez’s reboot of the 1980s Wonder Woman comic, the movie retold the character’s origin story from the ground up.
