Aquaman Reviews: 9 Early Reactions You Have To See
1. Rights The Ship For DC
The most prevalent and important takeaway from these reactions is that it looks as though this film may right the ship for DC after all. Wonder Woman only came out last year but feels like ages ago thanks to the fact that Justice League came out just a few months after it and flopped hard with fans and critics alike.
With other films of a similar tone such as Shazam! and Wonder Woman 2 on the way, maybe this is the beginning of a new era for the DCEU.
As @Tom_Jorgensen said:
"Aquaman is the best DC movie since The Dark Knight. @creepypuppet delivers a swashbuckling epic full of big emotion, gorgeous undersea visuals, exciting action, and lots of laughs. WB should be handing the DCEU reins to James Wan, he's proven he can, ahem, right the ship."
Or as @benmekler said:
"Aquaman is everything DC fans have been hoping for and more. Rollicking action, an amazing sense of world-building, spellbinding musical numbers in which Aquaman wears clams as tap shoes, and a command performance from Jason Momoa. DC has really righted the ship. The DCEU lives!"
