I just saw this on streaming. I don't get why it is getting such high praise. It is exactly as was advertised by the woke marketing. It's female led boring trash. The main character was carried the entire movie, primary the butt of jokes and is generally useless. In fact other than a few specific scenes, nearly all the male characters are useless.
Sam Rigel's Scanlan was a way better character than this crap.
The plot was so lame, especially with the intended victims easily running out of the area of effect at the end.
This deserved to bomb at the cinema.
Chris Pine has a bad habit of being a useless male in his movies. He's in charge, but everyone else is better... always.
I've never understood why he was popular- other than being eye candy for the ladies. I first saw him in the 2009 Star Trek movie and hated it and him. I can't think of a film I've seen him in that I care for.
He was good in Into the Spiderverse
He was in that for all of 7.5 minutes then died to make way for the new Spider-poc. The other older Spider-Man, who is a burnout, is voiced by Jake Johnson, one of the guys from New Girl with Zoey Deschanel.
And for 7.5 minutes he wasn't a terrible character.
In Wonder Woman he was even the 'eye candy'.
Very true
