Overall, a really solid family friendly...

Positives
The core of the movie is heavily inspired from the works of Jeff Parker with the hints of Geoff Johns. I'm a big fan of Jeff Parker's work so it's a big positive in my book.
Fantastic visuals and many of the scenes looks like real life painting to me, especially the diving scene with The Trench. Lots of color pallette as well. I was genuinely surprised this movie didn't got an Oscar nomination for VFX.
Octupus on drums being hype man for the fight? Asian Jim? OG Mary Poppins as Krathen? Hell yea!
Those wide angel and tracking shots were stunning. This movie in general had some great action sequences with fluid camera shots which were a delight to watch.
Score was pretty decent actually (not soundtrack), pretty reminiscent to that of Daft Punk's Tron: Legacy
Comic accurate costumes (Take that Bryan Singer)
Although Black Manta scenes were limited, he was a badass and owned every scene he was in.
The 3rd act was simply incredible. One of best 3rd act in comic book movie probably.
Negatives
Simply one of the worst music choices. Ugh, Pitbull doing Africa by Toto.
DCEU really need to fix their poor dialogues and writing. Some of the lines were really cheesy and they tried to cram too many storylines and the plot was predictable.
If I had a nickle for every time a conversation got interrupted by an explosion....
Orm performance could have been way better without the over the top dialogues.
Overall, a really solid family friendly flick with some flaws but offers a great visual experience, action sequences. I would recommend watching this in IMAX or 4DX.
