Review of Aquaman

Aquaman (2018)
3/10
Lost interest in 30 minutes and turned it off..

...which I never do. And I really like Jason Mamoa. But this is just the most generic, inane, over-CGI'd under-written recycle of other superhero movies. So much exposition about tridents and politics and next to nothing about the characters. Except the first ten minutes about Aquaman's mom and dad, an awkwardly youthified waste of Nicole Kidman and Jango Fett. And dude, Amber Heard (aka poison ivy) is smoookiingg hot and wtf with Aquaman's indifference to her and zero explanation of how they know each other.

The coolest thing about Aquaman is his connection with fish, which is completely overlooked in an opening sequence involving a machine gun fight. The only interesting scene in the first 30 minutes takes place in an aquarium when Aquatyke is being bullied.

The underwater talking and flying and armpit sniffing was unbearable. And I'm just getting going here. I can't beleive the script made it to screen.
