The DC universe is back!

Rating: 9/10 (25 December 2018)

The DC universe has been doing pushups in the shadows while Marvel boasted in the spotlight. As a Marvel fanboy I am ecstatic to see that DC has officially entered the competition by coming out swinging with Aquaman. If you are skeptical as to whether or not you will like this film, please just watch the first few scenes. Aquaman maintains masterful storytelling and gripping action throughout the entirety of its 2.5-hour runtime, with the exception of the last 15 minutes. Cinematographer Don Burgess allowed the 160-million-dollar budget to work at its full potential, facilitating jaw-dropping fight scenes and making the audience feel the power behind the strikes. I have high hopes for quality DC films in the future!
