Good, but not great.

Rating: 8/10 (23 December 2018)

Don't get me wrong-super fun movie and enjoyable from beginning to end for the most part. Mamoa owns the role and water world effects were top notch.
That being said, the script was a little blah and the effects were a little long in the tooth. The film seemed to drag a bit as well with that while desert sequence.
My biggest peeve is that a lot of the fight sequences felt like I was watching mighty morphin power rangers. Both their weapons and costumes it was straight up MMPW and I don't mean the movie (which actually wasn't horrible)...I mean the tv series. Black Manta? C'mon dude...that scene was total throwaway. I really thought you were going to bring down a demigod with your supped up scuba gear. Good try bro.
Anyway, fun movie but it stilll lags behind Wonder Woman and pretty much every DC movie except maybe Venom...but that was its own disaster.
