Female oriented superhero movies ? while nothing new ? have yet to truly capture the spirit of the genre and do something unique with it. After unequivocal failures such as Catwoman and Elektra, women took a backseat in superhero movies as love interests and supporting characters to aggressive male heroes. It?s a shame when one considers how densely populated comic book lore is with truly compelling female characters. If one character seeks to break this trend, it?s Diana Prince AKA Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot).
