I had high hopes but....yeah

Rating: 4/10 (6 January 2019)

This review is coming from someone who likes superhero films but I'll admit, aside from Wonder Woman and Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, DC films are not my fave. ANYWAY:
I cannot believe this has such a high rating? What on earth are people getting from this?
The dialogue was TERRIBLE. The acting was also TERRIBLE. It couldn't pick a genre. Was it a comedy? Was it a soap opera? Was it a policital piece on pollution of the seas? Was it Star Wars? (did they really need all that tech??) Was it Avatar? WHO CAN TELL.
It was honestly all over the shop. I felt like each scene had a different director who was just going to completely disregard what everyone else has done before them.
Positives: the underwater CGI was magnificent. Like, really beautiful. Jason Mamoa is charming. I'll give him that. The female lead didn't need saving once and didn't spend the entire movie screaming, so that was refreshing!
Negatives: literally everything else.
At this point, Wonder Woman is carrying the entire DCEU on her shoulders (in my opinion).
