The Scene That Explains Why ‘Wonder Woman’ Is Better Than ‘Captain America’
We’re not the first people to notice how similar Wonder Woman and Captain America: The First Avenger are.

The new video from ScreenCrush’s Ryan Arey breaks down both movies and finds their key differences (hint: it’s all about montages) and how those differences affect both movies.
