Hilarious

Rating: 6/10 (28 December 2018)

This movie is so ridiculous and dumb that it actual makes for a fun time. However, Aquaman contains three major flaws.
1) This movie falls victim to the common virus in every day movies and that is the over use of CGI. This film is layered with CGI to the point were every single scene in this movie contains large amounts CGI. The filims over the top graphics makes everything look fake, making it hard for you connect to the characters or story. The battle scenes are just CGI monsters crashing into each other and turning the intense scenes into something out of a Michael Bay film. Ever fight or intense scene I was laughing my head off because of the fake and chessy CGI.
2) In the comics Aquaman is a ridiculous character and I respect how hard they tried to make this movie not as dumb and corny. However, the movies plot is unoriginal and the script is laughable. The plot of Aruther try to stop the war of two different worlds by claiming his right to the throne has been seen many times in movies, most recently Black Panther which came out earlier in 2018. They tried their best to make a good script but everything they said was laughable and corny. For example their is a scene in which the villain is confronting a CGI crab, the crab says that he will not call the villain "your Highness" the villain responds that he does not want to be called Highness but Oceanmaster. This is supposed to be an intense and chilling speech but I found my self once again laughing out loud.
3) Aquaman is play very well as Jason Momoa, he brings a charming and charismatic personality that is fun and enjoyable to watch. However all the characters are god like people with super human strength and stamina. While this provides the characters with awesome moments it also adds very little stakes Aquaman is constantly stabed, shot or falling from great heights. Every time he comes out without a scratch providing little to no stakes because the characters are nearly invincible.
Even though Aquaman has many flaws it still is a fun and enjoyable movie.
