Wonder Woman is flawed, clichéd, imperfect. But it has moments -- more than a few -- where I found myself shedding a slight tear. Sometimes sadness. Sometimes elation.

Piercing through a lot of the nonsense and bombast, this is pretty crude nationalist and pro-war propaganda.

Diana's a strong role model for young girls as she's a fighter and has no time for the typical gender roles placed in society.
