    Compared to other movies in the “superhero action figures being banged together for two hours” genre, it wasn’t terrible.

    It’s too bad a pretty big chunk of the potential audience was trained by the internet to believe a movie about a girl where she isn’t just a sex object is automatically terrible.

        Momoa is a good Lobo. Looks just like him and it looks like Momoa is having tons of fun playing him.

        He still feels shoehorned into the story and mostly feels out of place.

        Momoa is a great Lobo, which is fitting because that’s pretty much the character he always plays. The downside is that he isn’t in the film much.

        Mild non-plot spoilers

        He has two character scenes and two fighting scenes. He doesn’t have a story arc and he doesn’t really fit in the story. You could remove him from the film and nothing would change.

        But I expect Momoa will stick around for a while and he’ll get a lot more in future films.
