Aquaman (2018)
9/10
A near perfect Aquaman film!
19 December 2018
Aquaman is not the easiest character to adapt to the big screen, but this movie does almost everything right! It's comic accurate enough and not afraid to look weird or silly.. and it does also bring it's own updated concepts and ideas in the right places. The hero is likeable(a fleshed out version of "Aquabro" from Justice League is actually a damn cool guy) and has a definite arc during the movie where he grows and changes, in fact most of the characters do! The villains are believable(one is maybe a bit cliche but it's that kind of story) and have reasons for their actions besides just having cool powers/designs! Speaking of design.. the visual styles and design choices for characters, creatures and places are amazing. It's a joy to journey from one awesome looking place to another in this movie, and while it's a 2hr 23 min movie it never drags or feels long, it's a fast paced, action packed ride from start to finish. It does everything a comic book movie should with style. Definitely recommended!
