The sequel to Aquaman is a total bummer for those of us who enjoyed Aquaman. Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreDec 29, 2023
The technology to make these movies eye candy of the first order is here. But the people making them are at a loss for a decent story to put these superheroes in, much less a movie that matters. Read full review

TheWrapWilliam BibbianiDec 21, 2023
Exactly the kind of insipid malarky superhero movies spent the last few decades trying to prove that they’re not. Read full review

Rolling StoneDavid FearJan 2, 2024
Even if you view this as just another superhero movie, it still feels like a litter’s runt. We’d have been fine if this kingdom stayed lost. Read full review

Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom feels like the friend at a middle school sleepover whose mom forgot to pick them up the next morning. You know, they know, everybody knows: The friend has overstayed their welcome, but you’re still trying to make things fun. Read full review

The film never tries to do anything other than look good, and is hellishly ugly even so. Read full review

The GuardianPeter BradshawDec 21, 2023
The Aquaman franchise is just flatlining, floating through the dreary depths like the kind of discarded plastic bag which is going to choke the last remaining vaquita porpoise. Read full review
