Wonder Woman 1984 (WW84) is headed to HBO Go on April 21 so Pinoy fans can finally get in on the action a few months after the film was released on HBO Max and US theaters.
It’s never too late for a good film though, and WW84 is a perfect follow up to the Justice League Snyder Cut which was released last month by both HBO Max and HBO Go.
It can be recalled that WW84 was the second most viewed content of the streaming platform when it premiered on Christmas day 2020. Wonder Woman 1984 logged in 14.9 million complete views on HBO Max and accounted for 2.25 billion minutes of viewing time from fans.

BRUCE R. MILLER
Fans must have felt they waited too long to see âWonder Woman 1984.â They were more than open with their criticism, suggesting it lacked plenty and didnât live up to the first film.
Movie critic Bruce Miller says Wonder Woman 1984 whirs and zooms over more territory than Superman ever could. Gal Gadot appears more assured as the lasso-twirling superhero and Chris Pine is welcome comic relief as her misplaced beau. But itâs Kristen Wiig as that needy Barbara who gets the biggest transformation. Also this week, Pixar s Soul may be a bit heavy for younger viewers but itâs the perfect picture for older people plagued by a pandemic. Touching and uplifting, âSoulâ says plenty about what matters most. It hits us right in the middle of our hearts and pushes us to appreciate all that we have, not all that we wish for.
