Gimly
It's not often a movie can make me feel An Emotion™, but with _Professor Marston and the Wonder Women_, I sure did. It doesn't exploit those avenues as well as it perhaps could have, and feels underdeveloped in a great many of its aspects, but still as both biopic and character drama, Wonder Women is a success. There are better movies than _Professor Marston and the Wonder Women_ out there for a person to watch, but its hard to imagine there being one more timely. _Final rating:★★★½ - I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time._
