Messy, but certainly a otherworldly experience

Rating: 7/10 (23 March 2019)

Aquaman has many faults. Between its messy script, bloated stature, and the fact that it is just too freaking long, you think it would be a total miss. However, what Aquaman lacks in all of these categories, it makes up for with trying actors, and jaw dropping action scenes. The film is predictable at time, and has quite a few cliches, but even with a hard to follow setup (or hard to watch, depending on how you look at it) Aquaman leaves you cheering at the end by a pure sense of an underdog story line. The film has flaws, as does its protagonist, but by the end it'll win your heart, even after the struggles it has made you deal with along the way. The first half of the film can seem like a drag at times, but the second half makes up enough for it. It isn't perfect, but it's a decent try for DC studios, and one that will definitely not be forgotten.
My Rating: 7.25/10
