Still thinking about this movie....

SPOILER: show
I think part of what makes it so good and refreshing is that we have a hero who just genuinely wants to go out and help people because it is the right thing to do.

Feel like all other modern superhero movies have the heroes either dealing with some "personal battle" or "fixing/cleaning up after their own mistakes" or "stumbling onto a situation where they end up getting drawn in and saving the world"

It's never just been "Hey, you know what's the right thing to do? Help people."

This was what I appreciated about the film. It also why spidey is my fav hero. Good for the sake of good.

This is what drives me nuts about Superman in both Man of Steel and BvS. It seems he saves the world not because he genuinely wants to because he feels it's the right thing to do, but more like because he can so, meh, why not. At no point does he seem to actually want to be Superman.

Whereas Diana 100% believes that because she has the ability it is her duty to serve and fight for those who cannot. It's inspiring. Superman isn't.

Absolutely loved her characterization.
