From the score, it won't be as bad as BvS or Suicide Squad...  biggrin.gif

I was hoping it will be as good as "Wonder Woman" but oh well, it seem poised to be a good film.

If you're a DC fan or fan of superhero films in general, I think you will enjoy it.

Aquaman (2018)

What a... spectacle!

I don't know how much money was spent making this movie, it must have been a obscene amount (according to imdb it is USD 160,000,000, and have to add, it looks to me much much more than that)!!

Okay, admittedly, I was a little skeptical, when Jason Momoa was cast as Aquaman, it sounded like a miscast for me (have you seen Aquaman in the comic?? He is BLOND for Pete's sake!!?!) laugh.gif

When Justice League came out, I was like okay, he did not suck.

How is he, in Aquaman's first solo outing?

He is... good!

His Polynesian/Hawaiian roots seems to give his portrayal of Aquaman, some... weight.

Let's talk about the source material for a minute.

Aquaman in the comic book is.... "very vanilla".

Even in Lego Aquaman, it makes fun of Aquaman "usefulness" in the League.

As mention, the Justice League (2017) movie, has all of DC's big three, namely Superman, Wonder Woman and Aquaman (yes, he is the third strongest character in the DC universe).

So, how do you make the character, relevant?

You make him an outcast.

The millennial will love that, and Jason Momoa "stands out" just by well, standing there. laugh.gif

This movie is NOT perfect, and have to add, it does make DC comics feel more adaptable to the movies.

They should not try to emulate the Marvel Cinema Universe.

They are their own material and have their own feel.

Wonder Woman (2016) and Aquaman (2018) have proven that.

Highlight of this movie is

1) Jason Momoa

2) Nicole Kidman (very little scene time, and have to add, she sold what little scene time she has to the max).

3) James Wan has a Patrick Wilson fetish? He seems to use him in everything he does!?! laugh.gif Aquaman list of villains are.... not household names, and have to add, Patrick Wilson sold his character Orm, like his life depended on it.

The not so good things about the movie

1) There are some plot holes between this movie and Justice League (2017) (this movie happens after Justice League)

So, don't like any negative I have mention above to impede you from watching this movie.

It is a good and entertaining movie.

And I hope, will encourage DC to make more.

Go watch it, you know you want to.

My Two Sen.

Although Nicole Kidman had limited screen time, but she really shined in this movie. She also play an important role for the touching moment.

I was really surprised that Willem Dafoe play a good guy and looked much younger. The fighting scenes are intense especially the final act . 9/10.

AQUAMAN is one of the most awesome comic movies I saw. And I didnt think Marvel / DC movies could get any awesomer.

I loved the depth of the message as well as the width of the shallows of the fight scenes and special effects. I almost got wet! :-D

Would you like to review part 2? laugh.gif tongue.gif

I am a huge DC Comics fan since I was a kid, and I have an extensive Aquaman comic book collection (the Peter David, Erik Larsen, Dan Jurgens, Rick Veitch, Geoff Johns runs are all there).

And even I tak larat to drag my ass to go watch Aquaman 2.

And this is from someone who thoroughly enjoyed The Flash and The Marvels.

It's impossible to deny this... as much as Endgame as a tremendously huge success for not only the superhero genre but also for the entire industry, it was also a jumping off point for most people.

At most, people came back to watch Spider-Man: Far From Home, Spider-Man: No Way Home, and Guardians of the Galaxy vol.3 for closure and then that's it...

And it's not helped that the leftist woke agenda has infected the MCU.

Going back to Aquaman 2, the whole Amber Heard thing really hurt the movie. Coupled with the post-pandemic "let's wait for streaming" behavior, the self destruction of the DC brand with one bad movie after another, and the glut of superhero content since 2021... it's no wonder nobody cares anymore.

And if you can't get the old school fans like myself to bother to come out and watch the movie... then there's something seriously wrong with your product.
