Review of Aquaman (2018) by Joseph S — 01 Jan 2019
Aquaman is an A+ movie. Look, I thought MOS was good, hated BVS, meh to Suicide Squad, enjoyed Wonder Woman, and thought JL was ok. But damn, this movie was incredible. There are superhero movies and there are epics; this is the latter, not the former.
We didn't see a superhero, we saw a legend become reality on the big screen. Unbelievably awesome! 5 stars, and a complete Masterpiece. So original and inspirational, and the scenes were breathtakingly gorgeous.
I felt real emotion to our heroes, connected with each one of them, and I haven't had that happen to this degree since Guardians of the Galaxy. The story was amazing, the acting was incredible, the CGI and special effects were THE BEST I'VE EVER SEEN IN A MOVIE! Very few flaws in this movie, and they are minor in degree.
This is the best DC movie hands down -- Wonder Woman does not compare, and the rest don't hold a flicker of a candlelight to Aquaman. Best movie of 2018, even beating the Avengers: Infinity War (but not by much).
Black Panther certainly does not compare either. My only regret having watched this movie is realizing that the sequel will probably not be as good because of how fantastic this one was.
