How The Hell Did “The Conjuring” Guy Get Cast As The Antagonist In This?
Jason Mamoa’s Aquaman in this film is a modern-day Enkidu from the Mesopotamian poem Gilgamesh, the world’s oldest recorded story—the prototypical Alpha male. He requires a STRONG antagonist, but Patrick Wilson has all the gravitas of a sheet of paper and all the believable machismo of Woody Allen. It’s like pitting Mamoa against a blow-up doll. A geriatric Dolph Lundgren eclipses Wilson’s testosterone quotient to a staggering level as well. What’s wrong with this picture? When Wilson tries to sound dominant, he sounds prissy, which rhymes with sissy, missy.
