Light and easy going

Rating: 6/10 (10 August 2019)

This movie was trying hard to be Thor Ragnorak type, and it's not a bad thing. Fans haven't liked Dark and different tone of DCEU before, so a course correction is fine. This movie works because of the slick direction of James Wan and charming performance of Jason Momoa.
I was so hesitant before Justice League after hearing the new news of the casting of Aquaman, and I didn't like persona, DC tried to show in JL trailers. But he was amazing in the movie. One of the saving grace in the 3rd act.
Even then I wasn't much excited for this movie, but it turned out to be way better than my expectations. This movie is fast-paced, light-hearted and colorful, everything DCEU needs.
Yes, people can say this movie is silly but if this movie would have taken Aquaman of all characters too seriously, it could have been Man of Steel 2.
It was an entertaining movie, which I can see again once blue-ray comes up.
Rating: 6
Meaning: Good, but might not watch it again.
