Review of Aquaman (2018) by Andrew S — 13 Jan 2019
The best DC movie so far, although, thats not saying much considering their output so far has been mediocre. having said that, Jason Mamoa was born to play Aquaman, and has more charisma in his finger than Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther) has in his entire body.
A good balance of story and action, and the underwater scenes are nothing short of spectacular. the visual effects guys who walked on this movie should be commended for the stellar work they did. Black Manta was an awesome villain and his suit was faithful to the comics.
If I had one minor gripe, it would be the romance between Arthur and Mera. I have never been a fan of romance in my comic book movies as I feel it takes you out of the flow, and that kissing scene, while explosions go off in the distance was cringe inducing.
So, a success for DC, so lets hope they can keep the ball rolling with Shazam shall we?
