Aquaman is officially a billion dollar movie now.
Just over a month after its initial release, in China on Dec. 7, the latest entry in the DC Extended Universe has become the 37th movie in history to make more than $1 billion at the global box office. It’s also the only DC Extended Universe release to reach that milestone.
That’s especially impressive when you realize that Aquaman, with just $287.9 million earned so far in the U.S. (where it opened on Dec. 21), is so far the worst-performing DCEU movie domestically after Justice League. Most of Aquaman‘s success — $732.4 million, to be exact — came from audiences outside the United States. Read more…

Aquaman slid past Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice on Saturday to become the highest-grossing DC Extended Universe film internationally.
Dawn of Justice made $863 million at the global box office – Aquaman is already at $887 million, after just two weeks in theaters.
Though reviews weren’t universally positive, many were average (the film has 64 percent on Rotten Tomatoes) and audience response has been favorable. What sets Aquaman apart from other DCEU fare is that it’s fun. This movie gets ridiculous and sometimes down right weird, but it’s colorful and powerful and just a good time at the movies. Read more…

Aquaman commands more than just the denizens of Earth’s oceans. He’s also got a vise-like hold on the box office, at least outside the United States.
The latest entry in the DC Extended Universe opened in U.S. theaters on Friday with an impressive $332.1 million already banked. That’s after almost three weeks in theaters in a number of overseas markets — including the historically Hollywood-friendly China.
That’s where Aquaman has made the biggest splash so far. As of Dec. 16, the movie’s Chinese box office total had reached $189 million, according to Box Office Mojo. For comparison: that’s already more than Justice League, the 2017 tentpole DCEU release from Warner Bros., managed to pick up in China during its entire theatrical run there ($106.1 million).

Spoilers for Aquaman ahead.
You didn’t think Aquaman would be the last we’d see of Aquaman, did you?
Nope — in typical superhero fashion, his big solo movie has a mid-credits stinger setting up a sequel. Here’s what happens in the Aquaman end credits, and what it means for potential future Aquaman films.
What happens in the Aquaman end credits
Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II), whom we last saw getting destroyed in battle against Aquaman, is rescued from the middle of the ocean by Dr. Stephen Shin (Randall Park), whom we last saw spouting wild conspiracy theories about the existence of Atlanteans on live TV. Read more…

Look, I get it. Even when executed well, superhero origin stories on the big screen have become depressingly formulaic — and with the exception of “Wonder Woman,” the ones in the DC Extended Universe haven’t been executed well. And although I was one of the few moviegoers who actually enjoyed last year’s “Justice League,” I’ll admit […]

Mixed reviews reveal critics can’t quite agree on ‘Aquaman’

“Like its hero, it’s the kind of film that surveys the strangeness in front of it, flashes a smile, and dives right in. And if it stays in the water a bit too long—well, I’d still come back for a sequel.”
Critics like Mashable’s Angie Han concede that Aquaman isn’t without its barnacles, but contend the flick is at least worth the price of admission. Others are denouncing the DC Comics’ tentpole as an irrefutable, outright flop.
The Jason Momoa and Amber Heard-starring adventure tackles the origin story of the Justice League’s trident-wielding hero, taking viewers into the seven kingdoms of Atlantis and entrenching them in ocean-dwelling politics. Read more…
