a5c7b9f00b In the aftermath of Justice League: War, the world is at peace or so it seems. When Atlantis attacks the Metropolis for the death of their king. But the Queen has different plans and requires the Justice League to find her lost son. But while they search for him, Atlantian troops; led by Ocean Master, continue their assault. Who will win? When Atlantian troops assault Metropolis as revenge for the death of their king, the Queen seeks help from the Justice League to find her son who has gone missing during the madness. Is always a challenge. Honestly, he's the lamest member of the Justice League, given his only powers are swimming and talking to fish.<br/><br/>I'm not even going to bother with the plot. They make Aquaman interesting. Superman and Batman are there but not really participating. A lot of the plot centers around Cyborg and his dealing with being a machine man. Or something.<br/><br/>You have some good actors voicing major characters- such as Nathan Fillion as the Green Lantern or Rosario Dawson as Wonder Woman. But they aren't the focus of this story. they have the stock Aquaman villains of Ocean Master and Black Manta.<br/><br/>It's okay as a story, even with a casual understanding of the characters involved. Sure, we all tease Aquaman and a lot of casual comic fans don't hold him on high of a pedestal as they do Batman but Aquaman can be quite the badass. I was hoping that "Throne of Atlantis" was going to show the wider audiences how cool the king of Atlantis can be but, honestly, I was a little disappointed with this one.<br/><br/>While the film isn't terrible, the story and plot gets very messy, some of the voice acting—like Matt Lanter as Aquaman himself—weren't the best choices and didn't really capture the character or the power they hold, and the film is very sadly light on the action. The film also doesn't develop Aquaman (or even focus on him enough) as well as they should be. I understand they need to appeal to the audiences who only pay attention to Batman but this really should have been Aquaman's time to shine.<br/><br/>Even with my complaints, the film is still pretty entertaining. The animation is killer, Nathan Fillion returns to voice Green Lantern, and I like that DC is creating a massive, cohesive universe in their animated series rather than tell single, self-contained stories all the time. While I was disappointed with "Justice League: Throne of Atlantis," I still enjoyed it and hope that it leads to seeing more action from Aquaman.
