Overlong, talky, filled with meta references, and with a strangely low-energy tone, the movie never fully gels.

During the final half hour, everything compelling about this low-budget thriller collapses in a miasma of idiocy.

Charming and fully appropriate for viewers of all ages, it re-enforces the idea that animated movies don’t require villains to entertain.

Run Time: 1:43
U.S. Release Date: 2018-12-07
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Drugs)

By adding cumbersome elements to the narrative, it ultimately detracts from the core human story.

"Destroyer" keeps the tone dark, eschewing anything resembling a traditional crime story and allowing Nicole Kidman's performance to take front stage.

A well-paced science fiction action thriller with elements of drama, whimsy, and a strong inter-species buddy movie element.

Devoid of complex plotting, comprehensive world-building, and narrative twists, "Aquaman" seems strangely out-of-step with where the genre is going.
