Liga da Justiça: Trono de Atlântida

Justice League: Throne of Atlantis, directed by Ethan Spaulding, written by Heath Corson as well as Geoff Johnson was an exciting and entertaining animated film. Though Aquaman has made many appearances in the Justice League Animated Series, this was the first time he stared in his own animated feature film that was full of Shakespearian twists.

Not too long after the events in Justice League: War, directed by Jay Oliva, Metropolis faces a new aquatic threat as the Ocean Master Orm attempts to persuade Queen Atlanna, of Atlantis, to fight the surface dwellers in an all-out war for the death of their king. Meanwhile, a young man named Author Curry, who will be later dubbed Aquaman, is thrown headfirst into the fray. After learning his true identity as a royal son of Atlantis, an Atlantian named Mera, at the request of her queen, retrieves Author so that he could fulfill his destiny as the new king of Atlantis. However, unlike Queen Atlanna's desire to use her son Author as a beacon that would bridge everlasting peace between Atlantis and the surface dwellers, Orm, also known as Author Curry's half-brother, yearns for the annihilation of the surface dwellers by using the destructive militaristic might of Atlantis. Through the aid of the Super 7, which will later be crowned the Justice League, Author Curry must accept his destiny as the future king of Atlantis and prevent a war that could destroy both worlds.

Unlike most Warner Brother DC Animated Films, Justice League: Throne of Atlantis focuses more on a monarchial power struggle which was quite refreshing as it had a classical approach. Be that as it may, there were still plenty of realistic action scenes as Author Curry and the Super 7 fight an abundance of foes. Furthermore, the animation was absolutely stunning! While some might complain about the level of graphic violence, I personally believe this level of carnage creates a convincing atmosphere which has made DC animated films more enjoyable to watch.

In the end, this animated feature film was an exceptional addition to the Justice League Animated Movie Series and will make any DC fan an enthusiast of the legendary Atlantian King, Aquaman. A definite 7.

Without any question or doubt, Justice League: Throne of Atlantis is the definitive telling of Aquaman's origins. as the bastard son of Queen Atlanta, he has a difficult hero's journey ahead. the twist of Manta coaxing Orm into war is brilliant, and well executed. were there problems? sure. but who cares? the idea of an already engaged Atlantean Princess having been impregnated by a human and having to leave soon after giving birth to her son ups the ante on the whole Hero's Journey that we've been seeing throughout mythology. the one thing about this i don't like is they replaced Martian Manhunter with Shazam, who's not one of the founding members in the comics. but, it's the New 52 version, so what the hell?

I enjoyed Justice League: Throne of Atlantis with its beautiful animation and often intense action, but the best thing was the origin of Aquaman.

He is half human and half Atlantian and must reconquer the throne and free his people of the strains of being hidden under the sea. But his evil half-brother Orm is all about destroying the surface world and goes to great lengths to make it. The Justice League must investigate the mysterious happenings in the Atlantic Ocean only to discover Atlantis and the threat Orm's vengeful mindset is to peace between worlds.

Even though an improvement over Justice League: War with credit to the writers making better characterizations of the league members its short running time of only 72 minutes makes the feel convoluted and at times rushed.

Another DC movie that has a decent story line and its expected dark side of characters. However, it sort of fails to truly hit the mark with marginal voice acting and animation that just isn't very good.

Essentially acting as an origin story for 'Aquaman', 'Justice League: Throne Of Atlantis (2015)' has some exciting and genuinely tense set-pieces which weave together a political-intrigue plot with a more conventional 'superhero' story. It usually balances its 'beat 'em up's with its character development pretty nicely and it even manages to throw a few emotionally affecting surprises in the mix for good measure. When all is said and done, though, it ultimately falls back on a more traditional third act that feels ever-so-slightly third-rate, even if it is well animated and entertaining to a decent extent. The flick also has a number of strange issues, such as the occasional blatantly unnecessary line of blatant exposition and some supporting voice-work that isn't really up to par. In the end, it's an entertaining animation that includes some well-realised, if slightly generic, interpretations of its characters but falls short in a few key areas. 6/10
