David McK (3562 KP) rated Aquaman (2018) in Movies
Jan 20, 2019 (Updated Jul 20, 2024)
Aquaman, as a character, is one that I'm not really that familiar with, only really coming onto my radar as a result of the 2017 movie Justice League.
Here, Jason Momoa reprises his role from that movie as the titular Arthur Curry aka Aquaman of the title, who finds himself caught in the middle of a brewing war between the Atlanteans and the (unsuspecting) human world.
Far removed from the early (somewhat dour) first movies in DCs Extended Universe - at one stage, an octopus plays a drum (I kid you not) - this is big, bold and colourful, with Arthur on a - literal - quest to recover a trident belonging to the first King of Atlantis that will grant him the powers to avert this war.
