Aquaman RULES!

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2018)

I saw a preview screening in Florida- wow loved it.
Words: beautiful to look at (visually kind of reminds me of 'Tron Legacy' but underwater), funny/fun/entertaining, cool looking characters/costumes, great art direction, cool score that reminds me of Vangelis' Bladerunner.
I'm a fan of all comic book movies but here is my take:
Marvel movies are "safe". They are entertaining but reminiscent of USA Network shows like Burn Notice (there are fights/weapons/guns/explosions- yet no blood/death/bad language) to me there isn't much to be surprised about yet great to watch.
DC movies are more "crazy" - almost like AMC network shows like Breaking Bad/Walking Dead (WITH some gore/blood/death/sexuality & nudity/foul language/etc.)
Aquaman is almost a bridge between both worlds Marvel/DC.
That being said, I LOVED Aquaman - it's my favorite comic book movie to date.
I'm in my mid-30's and I remember reading the character's comics/cartoons a little as a kid - I had the Super Friends/Super Powers(?) toys and the producers got the character perfect for current pop culture here (Jason Momoa is an actor that you'll like immediately on impact- like when I was a kid watching Schwarzenegger flicks).
The only annoying thing about this movie was the people in the theater around me kept gasping and getting very excited (in a good way) at the action/scale of what was exhilarating them -it was distracting and this movie pulls you in/engages you.
It's the first time in a long time that I remember saying to myself "I really don't want this to end!"
That's how much I enjoyed Aquaman.
