Last Wednesday I went to see the movie Wonder Woman. On the surface it was a great action filled adventure full of explosions and special effects. If you dig a little deeper you will find a story line that has a much deeper meaning.
This first movie starts out with a picture and then begins the back story of how that picture came to be. This story begins by showing Diana as a young girl. Diana's mother the queen wanted to protect her child, but Diana's aunt wanted to teach her to protect herself.
As the story goes on you find that Diana was not told the full story of who she was and what her purpose was to be.
The Amazon's world was invaded by the ongoing World War I bringing Diana's desire to help the humans to the story.
As Diana enters the world her purpose is to go after the villian of the story, but who exactly is that?
Diana soon finds out that all is not as it seems. Her innocent eyes become opened and she is forced to face some realities. Things such as evil is not always obvious. Humans are not perfect even without the influence of the bad guy and she was not exactly who she thought she was.
Overall it was a good movie. You can enjoy the surface entertainment or you can dig deeper into the hidden intellectual offerings. Either activity leaves you with a good feeling.
