What did you think of this film?

John Lawlor (Luke Evans) is a pit-bull DEA agent married to his job – there’s not a bad guy he can’t stop, nothing he won’t sacrifice to close out a case.

Joey Kang (Gwei Lun Mei) is a top “Transporter” in Taipei – fast-driving and fast-thinking, she’s difficult to pin down, impossible to catch.

The two of them weren’t supposed to fall in love, but fate brought them together… before forces of crime and corruption tore them apart.

Now, 15 years later, fate puts Joey and John on a collision course during a weekend in Taipei. And the two will discover that the only thing harder than falling in love… is falling back in love.

She offers the kids the chance to avoid drinking and driving by hanging out in the basement of her home. But there are some house rules: One of the kids has to stay sober. Don’t curse. Never go upstairs. And call her “Ma.”

But as Ma’s hospitality starts to curdle into obsession, what began as a teenage dream turns into a terrorizing nightmare, and Ma’s place goes from the best place in town to the worst place on earth.

What did you think of this film?
A superhero origin tale unlike any other, Professor Marston & The Wonder Women is the
incredible true story of what inspired Harvard psychologist and inventor Dr. William Moulton
Marston to create the iconic feminist superhero Wonder Woman. While Marston’s
groundbreaking character was pilloried by censors for its sexual frankness, he was living a secret
life that was equally controversial. Marston’s inspiration for Wonder Woman were his wife
Elizabeth Holloway Marston and their mutual lover Olive Byrne, self-empowered women who
defied social conventions while they helped Marston advance his prescient behavioral research.
