None of these female superhero movies work because women do not fit the hero’s journey. A man needs to struggle against the world to create value and establish his worth. A woman, by contrast, is born with value. So when a woman pretends to struggle like a man, it rings hollow to the audience. Because that’s not how the real world works.
The first Wonder Woman movie was average at best. It received a lot of effusive praise because the bar for female-led geek genre films - and DC films in general - is absurdly low. It’s worse than probably half the Marvel films.

Idk man the first Wonder Woman movie with Gadot was pretty good. 2nd was some weird feminist rape fantasy.
