    • Trivia
      Jason Momoa specifically requested Temuera Morrison, one of Momoa's acting idols, for the role of Arthur's father Tom Curry.
    • Goofs
      The propeller of the submarine is shown as generating a massive amount of bubbles, or cavitation. Submarine propellers are specifically designed to avoid this as much as possible because it creates sound that can easily be detected by hydrophones.
    • Quotes

      Queen Atlanna: I am Atlanna, Queen of Atlantis.

      Thomas Curry: I am Thomas, Keeper of Lighthouse.

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER: There is a scene in the closing credits: Black Manta is rescued by Dr Stephen Shin.
    • Alternate versions
      The UK theatrical version was cut to remove bloody detail to secure a 12A rating. That version was also used for the home media release.

    4/10
    Aquaman vs powwerrangers, starwars, godzilla and many others, on steroids
    C'mon, 10/10 seriously? the director used every action figure/action movie ever created to fight with or against Aquaman, splashing on testosterone. The Atlantis guards are Power Rangers, the underwater fighter jets are from Star Wars, the battle with other underwater kingdoms looks like a battle from the Lord of the Rings, some personages are a version of the Street Sharks, even Godzila had a resurrection moment!. Do you remember the Disney's the Sword in the Stone? even the guy name is Arthur! Did you spotted the dinosaurs at Jurasic Park? I only missed a Smeagol-like scene with the trident... my prrrrecioussss.

    Ah, and a very funny scene is watching Aquaman trying not to fall (and looking very scared) from the roof of one house in Sicily (two stories high) , when he'd just jumped from a plane thousand meters high with no parachute in the desert.

    But Nicole Kidman was beautiful as always.
