Aquaman ★★½

I ... I really don’t know what to say here. On the one hand this sucker was just straight-up bonkers. It’s often gloriously out of hand conceptually-visually and also unabashedly goofy, but unwieldy at virtually every story level and sets new records for the sheer number of lines of exposition spoken per minute. James Wan’s Aquaman is neither boring nor off putting by any means, but then again that assessment’s mostly only accurate because there is only so upset you are going to get with an inoffensive, good natured, film with frikkin war sharks in it.
