Wonder Woman 1984 or WW84, directed by Patty Jenkins and written by Geoff Johns, Dave Callaham, and Jenkins, takes place roughly 60 years after the events of the first film and follows Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) and her past love Steve Trevor (Chris Pine) as they face off against Max Lord (Pedro Pascal) and Barbara Minerva (Kristen Wiig). The movie highlights how absolute power can corrupt oneself, the importance of earning one’s dreams instead of taking shortcuts to achieve them, and letting go of things that can’t be brought back while being a globe-trotting, actioner. And although the spotlight should be on the titular superhero, it’s rightfully stolen by Pascal’s committed performance.
