Aquaman triumphs at the box office!

Rating: 10/10 (23 January 2020)

Aquaman took it for the DC Comics Universe and becomes their highest-grossing movie worldwide, surpassing Wonder Woman, Superman and even Nolan's Batman trilogy individual films. Who would've thought? People always demean Aquaman so he deservedly got a Huge film! Massive production. A whole new world had to be created underwater, amazing effort. Special effects galore and the script is good enough.
Apparently they made the most out of the superhero, they made the most out of Jason Momoa, treated him good and he shined at moments. However, hardcore fans might complain of his portrayal as a bar thug tattooed kinda trashy guy (that's what some reviews say?) as opposed to the comic version sophisticated and smarter.
I love Amber Heard, she is such a gorgeous woman, to me she is very charismatic. Nicole Kidman, nice special character and great presence. Patrick Wilson and Willem Dafoe delivered accordingly. Black Manta's motivation left me a little incomplete.
Definitely a movie that doesn't emphasize on the acting but in the end, I liked the conclusion so much, it appealed to my taste. I was satisfied, it's a crowd pleaser, nicely written. I'm not gonna knock it down because it's not at the masterpiece level of The Dark Knight, but shall support DC because they really need to compete (after many let-downs) and they did it with Aquaman, pleasantly surprised.
They found the right direction for the superhero, so I think the second part could easily be better, it has to, I have expectations now. Could it be more successful?
