Jason Momoa
Best Superhero Film to Date
I have to say that before I watched Aquaman, my favorite superhero was Superman. The classic Christopher Reeve persona of Superman to be precise. But when I took my dad to see Aquaman for his birthday, that all changed. It's a fun loving film, great for any fans of action, superheroes and Jason Momoa. The special effects were spectacular. This movie has snuck up to be in my top 20 movies of all time.

This show is a great contrast to the current superhero movie mania. The Seven, a superhero group headquartered in NYC, are essentially corrupt, and mostly horrible people.
The cast was great, and I hadn't really heard of any of the actors, aside from Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, and Simon Pegg.
Eight episodes were sufficient enough for me, it did drag a little in the beginning for me. But, that cliffhanger was NOT COOL. Thank god they're already filming season 2!

More comedy than action hero
Slightly odd quirky superhero film. I don't know much about comics, so not heard of this character before. This kinda feels like a PG-13 of @Kick-Ass (2010) as a young boy is granted an alter-ego superhero character. Complete with Mark Strong again as the villan. The first half of the film was more fun and enjoyable. It panders out pretty much how you would expect. Fun while it lasts if nothing memorable.

Movie Rating
Sylvester Stallone starring superheroics - his first since Judge Dredd? (not counting cameo in GotG vol 2) - - in which he plays the part of a recluse, who a young boy next door believes to be thought-to-be-dead superhero Samaritan, who supposedly died following a confrontation with his equally superpowered twin brother Nemesis twenty years earlier,

So it's immediately apparent where this one is going.

It's not bad, actually: just not brilliant. Think 90s style superhero films, before the MCU came to be.

Set your expectation accordingly.

I believe that if Unbreakable had been released today instead of nearly 20 years ago, it would have been received much more positively.
