		"Wonder Man" may not have the most credible of storylines of Danny Kaye's work, but it has some of the finest moments of pure anarchic ad-libbing and timing you will ever get to see after the Marx brothers.
		There are always films you associate with your youth and this is one of mine.To this day it is the only film that i wet myself over.
		Wonder Man is one of those rare movies that simply 'happen to you'.

	Filmtracks: Gladiator (Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard)
		So without unreleased cues from the film comprising the highlights of this second album, the alternative mixes and unused cues are the ones which steal the show.
		In a film such as this, it would have been all too easy to haul out the bass drums and sackbutts and engage in a thoroughly dull and completely cliche round of Roman stereotypes.
		It is given a wonderful rendition in Barbarian Horde which is, ironically, a title that can be applied equally well to the Barbarians at the start of the film and the Romans at the end of it.

		It’s the face of a young man whose soul is hounded by underage responsibility even as his body is racked by physical pain.
		Ross’ paintings recap the storyline of the first film in two short minutes, bringing us up to speed with recent events, a detail that would escape many viewers were it not so helpful.
		And the visual effects are vastly superior to the first film’s, especially in their rendering of Doc Ock’s dextrous mechanical tentacles.

	Wonder Man (1944)- Moria The Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Review
		The film arrives at a completely madcap ending with Kaye caught on a stage in an opera performance and trying to sing clues to the police chief in the audience.
		Whatever the case, outside of Kaye, there is almost nothing else to the film, it is an indulgence construed entirely around him.
		(In an interesting trivia note it is also the film that allowed him to display his much vaunted talent of being able to write with both hands at once).

	Filmtracks: Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (John Williams)
		The one for Luke and Leia is similar in atmosphere and instrumentation to the Princess and Han Solo themes from the previous films, and the Ewok theme downright irritated some listeners with its frenetic energy and perkiness.
		It is perhaps no coincidence that the two major non-orchestral cues in the film were both replaced for the Special Edition release of the film in 1997.
		Still, for any significant film music enthusiast, it is a must-have score, and with its outstanding packaging and complete presentation of music, the 1997 special edition album (the original full version bound in fl booklets) continues to be the best Return of the Jedi product available.

		It was Wonder's first solo no. 1 hit in Britain and one of the ten largest-selling singles in the UK of all times.

		The 90-minute film was a huge success in terms of ratings when it was broadcast November 19, 1978, capturing an enormous audience, the size that usually only the Stanley Cup play-offs commanded.
		The film is a sabre-slashing attack on bureaucracy.
		Critics had a field day with the film in their reviews describing it as, "vicious, nasty, unfair, rich, devious, wonderful, and extremely funny-even if watching it hurt when you laughed." Very little was left to the imagination.

		The man at the bottom who, left to himself, would starve in his hopeless ineptitude, contributes nothing to those above him, but receives the bonus of all of their brains.

		What Cheung Chi-Sing (who also wrote the script) was thinking when he made this film would be a damn fine movie in itself.
		It's sad that so many Hong Kong film awards were behind this (I count four among the principals), and it's mystifying that so much proven talent could churn out such an incredible turkey.
		The U-Man experience comes down to this: it's not whether or not the film is good, it's whether or not you'll be able to finish it.

		With the same supporting crew, however, Williams succeeded in his recording and debuted the film's two primary themes in his first conducting appearance at a concert with the Boston Pops several weeks before the release of the film.
		However, a rejected version of the theme, with harsh and atonal brass performing the bass rhythm instead of the straight strings, was originally to be heard during the introduction of the Star Destroyer fleet near the beginning of the film.
		Along with the "force" theme from the first film, the love theme from the second film carries a very heavy, mournful sensibility with it...

		After Wonder Man defeated Takumer, he smashed the Director's module after first checking to make sure it was uninhabited.
		A film director, he made certain Wonder Man knew that he was only the stuntman and not the actor in the movie.

		It also highlighted the predicament heroines face in action and science fiction films: They often find themselves fighting a double-edged battle against both evildoers and traditions that suggest that they shouldn't be battling at all.
		From her star-spangled panties to her beauty queen tiara, she was a uniquely American creation, a Rosie the Riveter with a whip who invariably saved the day, and the free world, without mussing her hair.
		Buffy was a quintessentially American icon in the Spider-Man and Wonder Woman tradition; Xena was a mythic figure as sensually formidable as Brad Pitt's Achilles in "Troy." Yet despite their popularity, neither inspired cinematic imitations.

		Starting with "Wonder Woman #175," DC has been shipping the series a month late and it causes some to speculate on whether or not Jimenez was able to handle both artistic and writing duties, especially with the aforementioned comic feeling very rushed.
		One of my biggest detractors on the Wonder Woman Message Board said it was the best death scene she'd ever read in comics so I'm like 'wow' because she was never particularly complimentary.
		But comic books are not the only place to find Wonder Woman these days, as she is starring in the wildly popular "Justice League" animated show that airs on the Cartoon Network.

		This is one of the most intriguing films to appear in a long time — richly romantic, perplexing and ultimately asking more questions than it answers.
