Manta.... NOT a victim!

Rating: 8/10 (29 December 2018)

Aquaman was GREAT! Wonderful to see DC release a fun and bright movie! I enjoyed the vast majority, the only parts that could have been left behind on the cutting room floor was the "Manta" character.
So Manta and dear old dad are pirates. Murdering pirates. Yes, murderers. Aquaman saves what remains of the submariene's crew, but does not save Manta's dad from being stuck under heavy wreckage and imminent drowning. Manta then grunts under breath "Aquaman, bad, must die"! And now, Aquaman is supposed to be someone we think of as a villain for this character and we are supposed to care he wants "revenge" for the death of his, PIRATE, MURDERING dad, who tried MANY times to kill Aquaman!!
Sorry Manta, you are not a sympathetic character. Neither was your dad. What your dad got was karma. To quote Jim Carey from "Liar, Liar". Stop breaking the law (can't use expletives on IMDB)!. Then dear old dad would not have died.
Yay, Aquaman! Nicole Kidman was great! I have also. It been an Amber Heard fan, but she did great as well, I thought she was well suited for the role!
