I stopped watching less than halfway through. Interesting premise, but the courtroom trial is so full of holes and is so weak as to make the movie not only ridiculous but totally unbelievable, and made the movie (for me) unwatchable.

Long. Pointlessly dragged out; a 3 hour movie that had 90 minutes of content. Needed an actual editor. The last 10 minutes are simply a preview of the sequel (chapter 2), all of which could’ve been in chapter 1 (this movie) had the movie been edited so that it didn’t just drag out with long and sloe moving, or repetitive, scenes, many of which we never see any follow-up to. Like many, if not most, 3 movies, this movie is simply self–indulgent, which is no doubt true of the Director.

Save yourself. It’s okay, slightly amusing, but more awkward than clever. I really cannot imagine why anyone has given this a good review. Don’t expect an ending that edifies or makes sitting through it worth it. I say save yourself and don’t bother.

Boring. This is what happens when you have hours and hours to tell a simple story. It’s one thing to do an homage to 50s, 60s, and 70s sitcoms (although why would a superhero comic series do that?), and quite another to spend three (so far) episodes doing so, with only moments that might actually have something to do with the actual story. What a waste (so far).

Hardly worth watching. Disappointing, cliched, trite, and with a noisy and ridiculous story dating back to the simplistic story lines of 60s superhero comics, rather than the more sophisticated stories and characters found in the best superhero movies, such as Batman Begins. Despite its opening, the best scene in the movie (by far), WW84 really has little to offer, including in special effects (all of which are now standard, even in the worst superhero movies), and what a waste of Gal Godot, an actor born to play Wonder Woman. Even her costume, a glitzy throwback to the classic WW outfit, was disappointing when compared to the more sedate version in the previous WW movie. The movie will not go down as one of the classic superhero movies, but will lie alongside the weak Fantastic Four and other similar failed superhero movies, closer to the campy Batman TV series than some of the high quality, well written, well acted, and well developed superhero movies we’ve seen grace the big screen. What a disappointment.

A messy film, very thin and messy story, and basically a ridiculous premise in which a designer drug actually allows, not the hallucinogenic experience of time travel, but ACTUAL time travel. And, on top of that, how far and where you go back in time depends on where you’re standing in the room. AND - only backwards in time, and never forward. And furthermore, sometimes you can take things with you if they’re touching you (like your clothing), and sometimes not. And sometimes there’s a ghostly after reflection of something from the past, and sometimes not. Basically, a pretty dumb movie with a ridiculous story.
