Boring mess of a movie

Rating: 2/10 (27 December 2018)

I really like James Wan. I thought The Conjuring films were excellent, so I went to this thinking it would be as good. I was wrong. The movie feels like it was made for DC fans only, who may have some knowledge of his back story. How exactly did Arthur become Aquaman? What's with the tattoos all over his body? Was he born with them? Did he get dragged to a tattoo parlor in a drunken stupor by his friends? How are Aquaman and the others able to breathe underwater? There seems to be no cohesive story line either, something to do with becoming king of Atlantis. Also, plenty of gratuitous explosions occurring throughout the movie, like watching a video game. The movie just seemed to consist of randomly strung together scenes, without any semblance of a story. By the midpoint of the movie (and it's a long movie) I found myself checking my watch every five minutes. Really not a good film
