After 10 years and 15 or 16 movies — it depends on how you count — the DC Extended Universe comes to a close with “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.” It’s been a long, strange trip but this is where it ends. And I think we can all agree that it’s pretty cool of Warner Bros. to spare our collective feelings by ending this franchise on a film so bad we won’t even miss it.
“Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” is a hacked up mess, and that’s not just the editing, but boy is it also the editing. The film tediously recycles the plot of the original, with two characters switching places and another one cut out so haphazardly that it’s genuinely embarrassing and hurts the whole film.
