Why does it all look so fake?

Rating: 5/10 (25 May 2019)

We live in an era in which foto real effects are not that hard to achieve. Many movies with smaller budgets look more real than this. Why?? Don't they care or worry about that stuff anymore?
This problem is not specific to Aquaman, but to all DCEU movies. To me, it just was more apparent here.
If you want to show a lighthouse, go outside and film an actual lighthouse. They do exist, you know?
If movies don't even try to make the effects seem real, where is the difference to a video game which you can't play?
I know that this review doesn't contain any info about story, acting and other components of Aquaman. I guess you've read it all before.
See this movie if you like Vfx that shout 'I'm here, don't I look cool' and if you watch everything superhero-related. You might have a good time.
