I watched Wonder Woman over the weekend. A very fun movie.

I've been thinking about Wonder Woman and the purpose of criticism. The movie had some faults that bugged me-- they could get anywhere in about a day. They place a phone call from behind enemy lines. Wonder Woman's super powers seemed to scale to meet the size of the villain. She is always just a little weaker than the villain until the last second.

Asking a superhero movie to be water tight is like asking a roller coaster to not have plot holes. The question misses the point. Don't take it so seriously. Relax and go along for the ride.

Still I'd like to know "What is the moral perspective of a roller coaster ride?"
