PURE FUN AND ENTERTAINMENT

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2019)

Do not go into this movie expecting some big allegory or mirror on society, it's not that- this movie is pure and unapologetic entertainment and I love it! Don't get me wrong, deeper more artistic movies are fantastic, but not every movie has to be one of those, some just need to be entertaining and take you on an action packed journey, sell you some escapism and just be fun.
This movie was cheesy, yes, but a good cheese, the Brie cheese of superhero movies. It made me laugh, cry, gasp and loose my freaking mind! Honestly it's one of the best movies I've ever seen in terms of pure entertainment value, I know I keep repeating that but here is no other way to describe it.
Jason mamoa is engaging and fun but also gave some depth, not to mention absolutely stunning. Amber herds Mera was a great character and was an absolute doer and not clichÃ© at all. The love stories weren't forced and one was particularly beautiful. Also, for the DC and comic book nerds like me out there so many fun little Easter eggs to the comics and animated movies so that was just icing on the cake.
I genuinely can't wait to watch this movie again and again.
