Amazons and allies, I just lassoed my way out of the theater after Wonder Woman 3 (blasting into IMAX glory on July 24, 2026 – Warner Bros.’ summer scorcher!), and by Hera’s golden girdle, this trilogy capper isn’t just a sequel – it’s a seismic rebirth that catapults the DCU into god-tier glory!  After the Snyderverse limbo and Jenkins’ heartfelt pivot, James Gunn (helming the helm with that Guardians magic) resurrects Diana Prince not as a relic, but a timeless titan bridging old gods and new chaos. Gal Gadot, 41 and radiating ethereal power, doesn’t reprise – she REIGNITES, her Wonder Woman a wiser warrior-queen scarred by man’s world but unbreakable in spirit. Paired with a script co-developed by Gunn, Peter Safran, and Patty Jenkins’ lore whispers, this 2-hour-15-minute epic fuses mythic grandeur with DCU connectivity – think Thor: Ragnarok’s wit crashing into Black Adam’s thunder, but with unapologetic sisterhood soul!  If 1984 was a ’80s fever dream, this is the reckoning that honors it while forging ahead.

Plot dives into Olympian oblivion with a pulse-racing prophecy: Diana, exiled post-1984 to Themyscira’s shadowed shores, awakens when Zeus’ long-lost bastard sibling – a primordial chaos deity (voiced by a thunderous Javier Bardem, all brooding seismic rage ) – shatters the veil between realms, flooding Earth with shadow beasts and corrupting global heroes. The twist? A fractured Justice League (cameos from Gunn’s Superman and a sly Batman tease) brands her a traitor for “abandoning” them, forcing an uneasy alliance with a rogue Amazon exile (a fierce Adria Arjona as a cyber-augmented warrior, blending X-Men’s flair with Themysciran steel). Enter crossover fire: Chris Hemsworth’s Thor crashes in as an Asgardian envoy (MCU-DC multiverse nod? Fanfic gold! ), sparking banter that crackles like lightning (“Your hammer’s cute, Odinson – mine’s forged in truth!”). Stakes soar with Diana mentoring a young oracle (Storm Reid, channeling prophetic fire), unraveling a betrayal arc tying back to Cheetah’s curse and Maxwell Lord’s lingering venom. It’s epic empathy: themes of divine isolation vs. mortal bonds, with gut-wrenching visions of Steve Trevor (Chris Pine’s spectral wink – heartbreaker ) and Amazonian rituals that weave folklore into feminist thunder. No retcon slop – every thread ties the trilogy into a bow of redemption!

The action? SWEET RAZORS OF ATHENA, GUNN UNLEASHES A COLOSSAL CLASH SYMPHONY! 80% practical fury with Weta’s godly VFX: that 20-minute Themyscira siege opener? Diana lassoing shadow krakens amid crumbling coliseums, golden eagle dives syncing with Arjona’s spear flips – balletic bedlam that outshines WW84’s mall brawl!  Mid-film multiverse rift chase? Thor and Diana tag-teaming frost giants through a bifurcated New York/Asgard skyline, Mjolnir hurling into Bracelets of Submission blocks – sparks flying like divine fireworks, Hemsworth’s booming laughs cutting the chaos! And the finale – a 35-minute Tartarus descent into volcanic hell – pits Diana vs. Bardem’s chaos lord in a one-woman odyssey: sword duels on lava bridges, truth-forced confessions shattering illusions, and an army of empowered Amazons storming the gates with shield walls that echo 300’s glory. Sound design roars like godly wrath (clangs, whooshes, thunderclaps vibrating your core), every impact a cathartic boom; choreography by the WW vet team amps the grace to god-mode. Connie Nielsen’s Hippolyta gets a tear-jerking arc, Robin Wright’s Antiope returns spectral and savage, and Gunn’s humor? Dry wit in epic stakes – “Gods fall, but sisters rise!”

Gadot commands the cosmos: her Diana’s a beacon of weary hope, fierce flips hiding profound poise. Hemsworth chews scenery as the thunder bro you crave, Arjona steals breaths with hybrid hustle, Bardem’s villain? A seismic storm of seductive doom. Cinematography bathes realms in sapphire seas and crimson rifts – luminous, larger-than-life. Critics quibbled “crossover clutter,” but hush – this is inclusive iconography, grossing $500M opening weekend and igniting global “Lasso Challenge” mania

Rating: 20/10 – Because Amazons don’t end stories; they etch them eternal!

Charge to cinemas on release – or cower in the shadows of the unworthy! Who’s your dream Diana ally?
