Don't worry, the guy reporting she had a costume is El Mayimbe, or "Eh Maybe", as I call him. He reports a load of stuff that turns out to be nothing.

Maybe a couple but the consensus seems to be that Gadot does a very credible job. Substantially above average.
What reviews are these?
QUUUUUEEEEEENNN

Which is good news, obviously, but she still doesn't look much like Wonder Woman if your idea of WW is a muscular warrior and not a lingerie model. Cavill and Affleck are giant beefcake monstrosities, why not Gadot?

Most I've seen say she isn't asked to do a lot. Most will compliment physicality but not dialogue which is fine for an action film.

How many comic books, cartoons, tv show, or games has ever portrayed Wonder Woman as a muscular warrior?

I just want to add, Gal has a three film contract for BvS, WW, and JL. I believe she was paid around $300,000 for each. But she's sure getting paid to re-up for Wonder Woman 2 and JL2.
When has Diana ever been depicted like that in any medium? There have been a million artist interpretations, of course, some of which may be heavier on muscle than others, but she's pretty much always pictured as a slim, conventionally attractive woman.
The one person that most commonly comes up when people describe their image of Wonder Woman is Lynda Carter, who certainly wasn't a "muscular warrior".

the anus was on gal to prove the doubters wrong here tbh.
is it really eating crow when there is no precedence to prove you wrong? I dunno...maybe it is. I'm iffy on the definition of that term.
Good on her for apparently pulling off a big success here though.
