"In this latest superhero adventure, DC Comics shows that they have no trouble making visually stunning and action-packed films. Jason Momoa is impressive as Aquaman, bringing humor and heroism easily into his role, especially when sharing the screen with his character's opposite, Patrick Wilson. The visual effects are stunning and the fight scenes are quite impressive throughout the movie. While the story seems to stumble at first, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is a fun action movie that is sure to be a hit with fans of the iconic superhero."
