Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom

Non riuscendo a sconfiggere Aquaman la prima volta, Black Manta, ancora spinto dal bisogno di vendicare la morte di suo padre, non si fermerà davanti a nulla pur di annientare Aquaman una volta per tutte. Questa volta Black Manta, in possesso del potere del mitico Tridente Nero, che scatena una forza antica e malevola, è più temibile che mai. Per sconfiggerlo Aquaman si rivolgerà al fratello imprigionato Orm, l'ex re di Atlantide, per forgiare un'improbabile alleanza. Insieme dovranno mettere da parte le loro divergenze per proteggere il loro regno e salvare la famiglia di Aquaman, e il mondo intero, da una distruzione irreversibile.
I’m surprised I actually enjoyed this movie. I came in with low expectations and understand why critics and audience didn’t like it at all. This kind of plot has been done a million times, it’s just plain lazy and a lot of the characters are kind of meh. Orm is the only interesting standout and Patrick Wilson looks like a badass. I’ve been put off by Jason Momoa’s acting in Fast X and just can’t take him very seriously anymore, he’s just okay in this film. And the whole movie builds up to a big bad villain who is then very easily defeated, it’s just comical that people actually write garbage scripts like this. But goddamn some of the environments in this film are so freaking beautiful and imaginative. They really nailed the production design and CGI. The club scene was pretty cool, the forest scene was lush and vibrant, the designs of the vehicles and sea creatures were unique, the fight and chase scenes were well done and entertaining. The relationship between the brothers was decent. I just had a good time experiencing the world and action sequences. But yeah so much potential squandered by a derivative lame story. I was never a fan of the DCEU, I’m just a completionist so I watched all the films but I’m glad this shit show of a universe has finally come to an end and I’m optimistically looking forward to James Gunn’s new vision for these awesome comic book heroes.
