"I don't want to be like anyone anymore. I want to be number one. An apex predator, like nothing there's ever been before." – Barbara Minerva (aka Cheetah)

Why watch this? Gal as Wonder Woman is always worth a look.

Plot Summary: This flick is set in Washington, D.C., and revolves around two main secondary characters. The first is Maxwell Lord, a moral-less businessman, always looking to seize power. The second is Barbara Minerva, a mousy museum worker who can't find a way to be noticed. When Diana and Barbara discover an artifact called the dreamstone, Barbara is granted Diana's super-powers, and Diana's dead boyfriend returns. Lord steals the dreamstone and creates a world of chaos.

Dad's Preview: This film has a lot in it, but it attempts an impossible task - to outdo the original, which is one of the best super-hero films every made. This effort is just not on par with expectations. Bringing back Chris Pine actually detracts from the film, and I love the actor. It just feels uninspired.
