Wonder Woman: Bloodlines

I've enjoyed every single one of the DC Universe Animated Movies up to now, but Wonder Woman Bloodlines unexpectedly breaks the streak. What a disappointment.

I'm a long-time WW fan, and she's been very well-presented in all DC movies up until now. No slam on the animation here which is more or less ok, or the voice acting which is top-notch as usual, but even the awesome Rosario Dawson couldn't sizzle this turkey.

The problem with Wonder Woman Bloodlines begins and ends with the script, or more to the point, with the scriptwriter. The dialogue is uniformly flat, character depth and nuance are wholly absent, and every person (including Steve Trevor, the only man in the movie) is written with the exact same voice. I could literally hear the screenwriter speaking every single line, regardless of which character was actually delivering it.

The entire screenplay is one-dimensional and hamfisted from start to finish to the point of being, frankly, embarrassing.

I looked up the screenwriter and it seems that's kind of what she's known for, so... good job, I guess?

If you're going to skip just one DC Animated Universe Movie, make it this one.
