Doesn't take a lot of brains to be a good fighter.
It's a mix of the fact that she's not a great actor but also her connection to the IDF
She keeps her Moet et Chandon In her pretty cabinet
It's a combination of her being a bad actor and a bad person. Dakota Johnson got a lot of flak for being a bad actress too even though she's mostly decent. Shes just in a lot of bad movies

Did people complain about her acting prior to her beliefs being an issue though?

Not really. She was never considered good, but also wasn't considered an active detriment to a movie.

That seems to be about what I remember. I can't think of anything she's done outside playing Wonder Woman. Yeah sure, no one was really hyped about the first movie, but none of those DCU movies were really well received. Then it came out she was a horrible person and that's when I saw the hatred for her.

She was in the Fast and the Furious films and that Maroon 5 video.

Probably not, but she also wasn't getting many starring roles before that, either. She started appearing in more movies around the same time her beliefs became an issue, so it stuck out a lot more.

Zendaya is the next. She's just not great and gets cast a lot for really not being a good actor.
Yeah, I really don't see that one happening. She's already way more prolific than Gadot, gets glowing reception on her press tours, is engaged to Perpetual High School Adorkable Dweeb Tom Holland, and seems to be coasting pretty well off of her Discount Daria typecasting.

She has none of the baggage Gadot has. Again, Gadot wasn't really getting much if any shit until the IDF business.

What beliefs are we talking about here? Unless you're implying every Israeli soldier was complicit in genocide.
Okay mods yall can lock this topic.

Gal Gadot's beliefs aside, yes, that is in fact how it works.

It doesn't matter if a Nazi soldier wasn't personally stationed at Auschwitz. It doesn't matter if they were "just fighting to protect their homeland." At the end of the day, they were a nazi, fighting for the nazis, supporting the nazis.

Funnily enough, this same logic applies to the US South, particularly the hillbilly morons proudly flying Confederate flags today. "It wasn't about slavery, my family didn't have slaves, we were protecting our farm!" Too friggin bad, you were fighting for a rebel nation that went to war to protect slavery. Tough shit.

There are two things at play:

1) people who hate her views on palestine
2) people who hate her because shes a woman

they are both at play. There are male actors who have the same terrible view on Palestine, and they dont get as much of a backlash. However, bigots will use any excuse to attack a former ally because your use to them has been used up.

Gal Gadot might look pretty but her acting skills leave much to be desired.

even a wooden plank has more presence and charisma than this bitch...

She openly hates on all Palestinians, refusing to acknowledge they're not all Hamas, so...

I'm not seeing any credible evidence of this. Statements like "Killing innocent Palestinians is horrific" would indicate the contrary.

Looking for this as well. Based on the link. She is anti war and promoted neutrality. Did someone infiltrate the wiki to promote something else?
Above all things, never be afraid. The enemy who forces you to retreat is himself afraid of you at that very moment.

It ends up seeming like the equivalent of "I'm not racist, but..." when her words and actions since suggest otherwise. She has openly pushed pro Israel propaganda, including trying to push the idea that pro Palestinian protestors support Hamas:

Never did I imagine that on the streets of the United States, and different cities around the world, we would see people not condemning Hamas, but celebrating, justifying and cheering on a massacre of Jews, she said in her speech.

She was getting crap for her acting back during her Fast and Furious days. She just wasn't in the public eye until Wonder Woman. And despite all the other stuff, the fact that she kept getting starring roles despite being a pretty terrible actress started annoying people

Someone mentioned Zendaya but even if you don't like Zendaya she's LIGHT YEARS of a better actress than Gadot. Plus she's actually won awards (Emmys).

In that regard, no.
Gal Gadot is the highest profile terrible actor
Ive been saying shes a terrible actress since everyone was gassing her up in the early wonder woman years (remember the oscar + person of the year buzz?* lol).

*people will say this never happened but her and patty jenkins got serious award campaigns

She wasn't horrified. She thought saying so was necessary to advocate for Israel, in light of their criticism for killing innocent Palestinians.

Gadot deleted the story and posted an apology: Ofira, my love, I am sorry if my words were not understood in the way that I meant them. All I want is to speak out for Israel in the world and to show the horrors that we are experiencing and to help obtain worldwide support in the face of of our critics. I will continue to do whatever I can in order to make Israels outcry heard everywhere. My heart is bleeding and I am beside myself with sorrow over what is happening.

The No Man's Land scene was a powerful scene, IMO regardless of her acting.

Exactly. Her best scene is the one where she basically never talks.

It's like some people in this topic forgot about Justice League, Wonder Woman 1984, and Death on the Nile, where she turned in sub Superbowl commercial tier performances.

Well she continues to stink up every movie she's in so I'm not surprised.

I don't like to hate on people but she really does have absolutely zero acting chops.

Joining the Army & SS was always voluntary in Germany. In Israel it's mandatory service. I wouldn't necessarily hold simply being in the IDF against someone but Gal Gadot is more than that.

It is kind of ironic that her best moment in that movie came from her not saying the cliched response everyone expected to "you can't go out there, that's No Man's Land!!"

She had some other decent movies in that movie though. I thought WW's reaction to trying ice cream for the first time felt pretty genuine.

There was a brief scene (it might be during the same sequence as the ice cream) where she was trying to hug a random baby that I thought was hilarious.

Wonder Woman was bad
he/him/his
Gadot was a fitness instructor in the IDF due to mandatory conscription, but from the way the internet talks about her you'd think she helped in the Cave of the Patriarchs massacre.

It's not a shock why she gets work: she's beautiful and her movies do well financially.
