How much does Water plays a part in the plot of the movie Aquaman (2018):
The Aquaman movie's plot heavily involves water. Arthur Curry's (Jason Momoa) abilities are all drawn from water, and the story takes place in the underwater kingdom of Atlantis. He has the ability to breathe underwater, swim extremely fast, and command marine life.
The war between Atlantis and the surface world is the central theme of the movie. Half-brother of Arthur, Orm (Patrick Wilson), seeks to make war on the surface world by uniting the seven submerged kingdoms. In order to avert a conflict between the two realms, Arthur must stop Orm.
In the movie, water is a metaphor of both strength and peril. It gives Arthur his abilities, yet it can also be wielded as a weapon. Arthur must use his own abilities to stop Orm from attacking the surface world by using water as a weapon.
The visual style of the movie is also greatly impacted by water. The underwater scenes are breathtaking and contribute to the wonder and awe that are present. Additionally, the usage of water adds tension and excitement to the action scenes in the movie.
Here are some an example of how water is used in Aquaman's story:
- The movie begins with a scene of Thomas Curry (Temuera Morrison) saving Arthur's mother, Atlanna (Nicole Kidman), from a storm. The storm is a potent representation of the force of water, and it portends Arthur's future role as the guardian of Atlantis.
- All of Arthur's abilities come from water. He has the ability to breathe underwater, swim extremely fast, and command marine life. His capacity to stop Orm and avert a conflict between Atlantis and the surface world depends on these abilities.
Aquaman makes excellent use of the element of water, which is strong and versatile. The use of water enhances the graphics, action, and ideas of the movie, which is ultimately one of the things that makes Aquaman such a fun movie to watch.
What I love about Aquaman (2018):
- The images are breathtaking. An immersive and visually spectacular way of bringing the undersea world to life. The surroundings, environments, and action scenes are all gorgeous, as are the monsters.
- The cast is excellent. As Arthur Curry, Jason Momoa does a fantastic job, and he's well-supported by a talented cast that also features Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Willem Dafoe, and Nicole Kidman.
- It's a fun and interesting narrative. Although it follows a traditional hero's journey, it is also humorous, exciting, and adventurous.
- The movie has a positive message. Finding your place in the world and accepting who you are are the themes of Aquaman. I believe that everyone can relate to the message.
What part of Aquaman (2018) movie did I find most interesting?
The underwater scenes could have piqued my curiosity the most because I adore the movie's imagery. James Wan, who is in charge of directing the picture, is well-known for his work on horror films. He uses a similar visual aesthetic in Aquaman. An immersive and visually spectacular way of bringing the undersea world to life. The creatures are incredible, the scenery is stunning, and the action scenes are breath-taking.
It's likely that because I adore the movie's theme, I found the acceptance message to be the most intriguing. Finding your place in the world and accepting who you are are the themes of Aquaman. I believe that everyone can relate to this message, and I believe that everyone needs to hear it.
