This was a phenomenal undertaking. I've seen this movie many, many times now and usually after doing so you spot major problems and errors. Not so with Aquaman. James Wan did a fantastic job of realizing a new (to us) world. Mostly he served his actors well, although there is only so much you can do with a superhero script. The pacing was good although I started getting battle fatigue after Orm started going after the Brine kingdom. The cinematography and effects were fantastic. And there are scenes that are really memorable, such as a younger Arthur swimming with a pod of dolphins, jumping in and out of the water with them. For the most part the cast did well. I was especially impressed with Momoa. He had many "money shots," although, again, there's only so much you can do with a superhero script. I kept thinking to myself, 'Why isn't this guy expanding his range?' He certainly has the acting chops to do more. I suspect people automatically see his physique and assign him to a dismissable category of actor. Pity. I hope he tries to branch out, and he should definitely stay away from others' franchises. He doesn't need to play second fiddle to anyone.

Fantastic Family Film.

A non-stop thrill ride. A must see for any one. The story follows Arthur after the events of the Justice league. His half-brother orm has set his sights on becoming the ocean Master the ultimate ruler of the seven seas. Arthur sets out on an adventure of a lifetime along the way he meets Mira. The climax of the movie must be seen to believe
Great movie

Jason Momoa brings a whole different version of Aquaman, his wild look make it perfect for the character. As they say a hero is only a great as his nemesis, and his brother makes a great villain what makes Aquaman even better. The only thing that I didn't like was Manta, he looks more like a child throwing a tantrum for his lost candy, than an evil villain...
Horrible movie
