Rambling across 2 ½ hours with nowhere near enough plot and appallingly unfocused direction this needed Momoa to do all the heavy lifting. He does provide it but even he can’t turn this epic wannabe into essential viewing. It’s fun, but most characters are one note and as well as Black Manta is cast, he’s one too many plot strands to stop you getting properly invested. It’s a batshit crazy film with more fighting and CGI than character moments, no shortage of ideas but no filter through which to distil them.
