If only because James Wan knows how to frame these shots and make superhero cinema actually look both heroic and cinematic. There's some godawful Momoa shtick and a stupid-ass opening that I hated and some clearly rushed last minute CGI in places... but there's also very good creature design and some fun action and a competent director and a truly delightful Patrick Wilson performance.

IMO the second best live action superhero movie this year. Low bar to clear, but that's where I landed, more or less. (I did like the first Aquaman, though, fwiw.)
