Aquaman Movie Review Dec 28, 2018

Show notes

It's been over a year since the DECU's last film, 2017's dud Justice League, and the cinematic universe has felt like it has been on shaky ground.

A lot of the DCEU's future rests on Aquaman's shoulders, but does the Jason Mamoa led aquatic comic book adventure manage to course correct? Listen to our review to find out what we thought.
