In Patty Jenkins’s candy-colored rendition of the ’80s, 1984’s Diana (Gal Gadot) finds herself lonely and isolated - both by choice and circumstance.

The disappointing sequel highlights not only the dire state of the live-action superhero genre in film, but the dire state of Hollywood filmmaking as a whole. Sadly, all that glittered in the franchise’s first outing is gone in Wonder Woman 1984.

Perhaps its lopsided universe was not perfect there were lackluster villains and a noticeable absence of racial diversity and sensuality, and the sequel had to contend with a significant jump from WWI-era Europe into early 1980s Washington, D.C.

Its time-skipping story offered a way to expand the superhero genre’s usual plot beats - which was desperately needed - and arrived buoyed by an excellent cast. Its empathetic predecessor is likely the most beloved and critically successful of the slate of beleaguered DC Comics films. This sequel had almost everything going for it. Wonder Woman, also known as Diana Prince, is one of the most dynamic of DC’s mainstay comic characters, but you’d never know it watching Wonder Woman 1984.
