Aquaman Reviews: 9 Early Reactions You Have To See
6. Praise For Momoa
Aquaman himself, Jason Momoa, is also earning some pretty rave reviews for his performance. While no one is exactly rallying for his Oscar, they are praising his performance as being energetic and full of charisma, earning him some comparisons to some other testosterone-fueled heroes of decades past.
As @andrewbdyce said:
"Aquaman is a breathtakingly beautiful, weird, badass, FUN idea of a modern superhero fantasy (anime) and makes zero apologies. Second half's one cheer/laugh after another. Imagine '80s Schwarzenegger starring in "Hideo Kojima's AVATAR" and you're most of the way there. "
And as @AshleyGMenzel says;
"Aquaman is over the top fun! A perfect balance of cheesy humor & action. James Wan shows his skill as a director & puts his mark on DC in a big way. Momoa is perfectly charming & brings Aquaman out of the shadows to stand alongside the greats like Wonder Woman."
