DC: Extended Universe

The DC extended universe, a series of films that all tie together.

Aquaman

Surprisingly interesting world building and the perfect casting in Jason Momoa make this far better than it has any right to be 🐳

Aquaman: The Lost Kingdom

Pretty to look at and entertaining enough, but tries too hard to be a Marvel movie without really earning it.

Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice

Competent and not worthy of the level of hate bestowed on it, but ultimately still a little wide of the mark.

Birds of Prey

A weird but enjoyable movie with some amazing action sequences and a very alive Gotham; Quinn-tessentially Harley (I couldn't resist).

Black Adam

A surprisingly fun reinvention of several excellent DC characters that rarely get the spotlight, with a few unexpected twists along the way.

Blue Beetle

Utterly by-the-numbers; not exactly bad, just predictable and generic.

Shazam

A surprisingly competent superhero movie wrapped around the most ridiculous superhero in DC's canon.

Shazam: Fury of the Gods

Another fun outing with the most interesting part of the DC:EU, albeit with some wild product placements.

Suicide Squad

A hot mess. Some great characters, some excellent acting, and some decent parts. But also some terrible characters, some terrible acting, and a terrible plot in general.

The Suicide Squad

A fun, often ridiculous experiment in expectation subversion, with an equally over-the-top cast and perfectly acceptable set of core characters, ideas, and jokes. Enjoyable end-to-end.

Wonder Woman

Holy crap, DC have created a genuinely clever, interesting, well-made superhero movie. Praise be to Zeus!

Wonder Woman 1984

Some nice character moments and another interestingly subversive villain, but let down by a lack of original ideas and very little character development.
