由《厲陰宅》(The Conjuring)導演溫子仁執導的《水行俠》(Aquaman)是華納兄弟影業今年唯一一部 DC 超級英雄電影,相信觀眾都已經迫不及待想要了解這位亞特蘭提斯王子的故事,而此片日前在國外媒體試映過後,首波評價也隨之出爐,大部分都認為此片表現得相當不錯,甚至是目前 DC 擴充宇宙中第二優秀的電影作品,也希望未來溫子仁能有更多相關電影的執導機會。
Screen Rant 編輯安德魯戴斯(Andrew Dyce):《水行俠》是一部有著令人讚嘆的美麗、奇怪、很棒、有趣概念的當代超級英雄奇幻(動畫),並且對此的詮釋完全沒有感到退縮的地方。想像一下 80 年代的阿諾史瓦辛格(Arnold Schwarzenegger)主演了小島秀夫執導的《阿凡達》(Avatar),大概就是那樣。
Aquaman is a breathtakingly beautiful, weird, badass, FUN idea of a modern superhero fantasy (anime) and makes zero apologies. Second half's one cheer/laugh after another.

Imagine '80s Schwarzenegger starring in "Hideo Kojima's AVATAR" and you're most of the way there. #Aquaman pic.twitter.com/nmZYjcUm5q
Comicbook.com 布蘭登戴維斯(Brandon Davis):《水行俠》是好的,溫子仁拍了一部相當獨特的超級英雄起源電影,經常在奇幻史詩的領域中穿梭,但主要還是著重在家庭與發現。
#Aquaman is great. James Wan made a really unique super hero origin film, often crossing into fantasy-epic territory, but grounded in family and discovery.

The world is visually incredible. Jason Momoa as Arthur Curry is a total bad-ass. @yahya and @patrickwilson73 stand out! pic.twitter.com/2IvDCEq7VU
io9 娛樂記者傑爾曼路席爾(Germain Lussier):《水行俠》是一部龐大、有趣、狂野的作品。其毫不掩飾的劇情效果有著可以想像得到的最大、最具野心的規模。有一部分不是太好,但不是主要的地方,然而奇怪的是,又很符合其卡通化的調性。DC 擴充宇宙第二好的電影。
Aquaman is a big, fun, wild ride. It’s unabashedly melodramatic and over the top with the largest, most ambitious sense of scale imaginable. Parts of it are kind of bad but they are not the majority and, oddly, still fit in with the cartoony tone. 2nd best DCU movie. YEEEAAHH! pic.twitter.com/3GLlK3uQJ3

Picture House 播客節目主持人山姆克萊門特(Sam Clement):《水行俠》是《阿凡達》遇見《朱比特崛起》(Jupiter Ascending),加上少許的《魔戒》(The Lord Of The Rings)、《法櫃奇兵》(Indiana Jones)與大型的電玩遊戲元素。還有章魚在打鼓,我喜歡。
#Aquaman is Avatar meets Jupiter Ascending, with hints of The Lord Of The Rings, Indiana Jones and a triple AAA video game. There’s also an Octopus who plays the drums. I loved it. ????????

slashfilm 主編彼得賽瑞塔(Peter Sciretta):《水行俠》比預期中的好,就好的方式來說,感覺像是漫威第一階段的電影。在其充滿樂趣與沒有太嚴肅看待自己的時候是最棒的狀態。而黑蝠鱝也是漫畫迷會喜歡的反派角色。有一些真的很棒的鏡頭與動作場面。
???? #Aquaman is better than expected. Feels like a Marvel phase one movie, in a good way. It’s at its best when it’s having fun and not taking itself too seriously. Black Manta is great villain that comic book fans will love. Some truly spectacular one shots and good action. pic.twitter.com/aTnc1QWk66

IGN 播客節目主持人湯姆約根森(Tom Jorgense):《水行俠》是《黑暗騎士》(The Dark Knight)之後最棒的 DC 電影。溫子仁呈現了一部充滿了情感的傳奇史詩、華麗的海底視覺、令人振奮的動作場面,以及許多的歡笑。華納兄弟應該要把 DC 擴充宇宙的主導權交給溫子仁,他證明了他可以讓這艘船航向正確的方向。
#Aquaman is the best DC movie since The Dark Knight.@creepypuppet delivers a swashbuckling epic full of big emotion, gorgeous undersea visuals, exciting action, and lots of laughs.

WB should be handing the DCEU reins to James Wan, he's proven he can, ahem, right the ship. pic.twitter.com/4hjxdmNLDf
