Gatsby77 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 It's insane that Aquaman 2 will already be streaming on Max while Wonka - which was a released a week earlier - is still rocking the top 10 in theaters and playing on more than 2,300 screens.

Aman619 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I watched the film last night. I should say, I finished it last night after 2 nights of watching a third and a third. I had to stop the first 2 nights cause I felt I had better things to do with the time. Overall, though, I was impressed with most of the FX -- some creatures looked too cartoony, sure, but the entire film was FX with faces added under CGS generated flowing hair. I grimaced at too many of the jokes and dialogue. And so many plot points were similar to Thor (brothers fighting, then pairing up) etc. Enough with Blank Manta!! typo but I like t! That helmet is red and cool, but so stupid! And the ending --- "I Am Aquaman!" seriouslyl? We arent expected to recall dialogue from a decade ago?? Also, do we know exactly what Aquamans powers are? How strong is he? Like too many super-hero fights (even human fights like Wick) he takes a beating, gets knocked out, or weakened. But then pops right back up! Same even with Superman! Either they are superhuman. or they arent! Or have limited strength and is consistently handled. AND --- way too many times a last second rescue appears when a hero is down and about to be killed or whatever. There's exactly zero surprises. Yup -- defeat Mants, only to take on the REAL bad guy underneath the plot. It was not a very original or compelling movie. Just played by itself until the badguys were finally put down (though Black Manta fell down a hole so he will be back --- which is a mistake.. I know Aquaman never had a roster of villains to tap into. But it's like Spider always fighting Green Goblin, or Superman with Luthor! enough! However, somehow, I dont regret watching it.. and cant say I hated it. Compared to an original excitingly visual treat like the animated Miles Spidey films? filled with action, graphic creativity, human interest and warmth, etc etc... no contest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
