No idea. It's a shame as the added 30 mins improves the film. I think the same thing happened with Watchmen.

Quite underwhelmed by this if I'm being honest. Considering all of the highly positive reviews. Lead actress gives a good performance but the writing and the praised female direction is pretty darn average. I'd probably still award a grudging 7/10 - will sell off at Cex today. It's not a popular opinion but I personally thought that the full-length cut of Batman v Superman (which of course, also featured Wonder Woman) was a substantially better film.
I haven't seen Batman v Superman, but I haven't heard anything positive about it yet. When I saw it at the cinema, I thought Wonder Woman was very well written, directed and performed by the entire cast, and am seriously contemplating picking up the Ultra HD Blu-ray release.

It's not very fair on consumers, actually not at all, but maybe it's a good time for you to upgrade to high definition.

Which means I am being forced to buy something I do not need just to watch some films that are different in content to DVD.

I meant in relation to the sheer number of films which have had high definition remasters in recent years, now with vastly superior picture and sound quality to their standard definition counterparts.

Whether you want to 'double dip' or upgrade from DVD to Blu-ray on some of your favourite titles is up to you, but taking advantage of new releases from across the board and buying BDs instead of DVDs will benefit you if you have the AV equipment and physically able to see and hear the difference.

It actually has quite a few fans. The darker in tone, 30 min longer cut really improves the film. Well worth a look imo, especially at the cheap price the blu-ray now sells for. It's no Suicide Squad!

I thought Suicide Squad was dire, so may take a punt on Batman v Superman if I can find a cheap BD somewhere.
