Movie Review: Aquaman


There are many tell-tale signs that you’re in a theater watching a bad movie. People are constantly getting up to go to the bathroom, or to buy food to distract themselves. In my case I was happy I have my cell phone to look at something – or anything other than this 2 hours and 20 minutes of what amounts to a mess. Its obvious that in the end all of the DC Comic and Marvel super hero’s will eventually be made into a movie – but this is the worst super hero movie I have seen yet. There is a disconnected convoluted story and once again, when there is no good screenplay, the workaround is huge special effects, fight scenes and explosions. What is worse is that this bad movie is way too long, well over 2 hours. Why drag on a bad movie? Give the audience a break before there is a mass rush for the exits. This bad film seems to be making money, only because its a new Super Hero Comic movie, so unfortunately there will probably be a sequel.

The Rotten Tomatoes ratings for Aquaman are an average 64% – way too high in my opinion. I would have given this movie about a 10% rating. This movie stars Jason Momoa, Amber Heard and even Nicole Kidman, who makes appearances in the beginning and end of this film. The question I asked myself when I saw Kidman in this movie was, why?

Run from this worst ever Comic Super Hero movie, its not worth 1 hour of your time, much less almost 2 1/2 hours.
