This looks totally awful. Even if the plots can be iffy, DC comic mocies at least have great imagery and costumes, this looks like a cheap parody movie. Zachary Levi doesn't
embody any kind of superhero quality and his outfit looks painfully "let's give him added muscle because he can't get it himself"

Skip. Bin. Next.

Yeah I thought it looked fun until the part when he grows up (I know that's the point). It's not doing it for me.

I don't normally like DC things #Marvel4life

However, this looks really fun and I intend to check this out upon its release cheer.gif

I was surprised with how dark the tone was for this one. Felt like more of a 15 then Venom did to be honest. laugh.gif

Overall, I enjoyed it and it probably is the highest quality movie to come from the DCEU so far even if I did have more fun watching Aquaman.

I really enjoyed this! It was a blast. It wasn’t as tight as the majority of Marvel movies still but I really liked the fleshed out villain backstory especially. The foster kids were all really cute too. I felt so sorry for the parents by the end of it, bless their stressed hearts.

Zachary Levi was fab in the sci-fi nerd/superpower show Chuck, so I kinda knew what Shazam would be like, light-hearted good-natured romp. 6/10. It could have been better by dropping all of the pathetic superhero cliches that defy everyday science. I mean, I can accept the premise of magic as the basis of a plot. what I cant accept is the ongoing belief that human beings thrown through glass windows don't get seriously killed, that holding a bus up by a cracked window wouldnt immediately break the shattered window and hit the ground just as quickly as if someone had used a metal post to hold it up after it had fallen from a height, and that if any firm object the size of an arm, made of flesh & bone, metal, wood, concrete doesnt matter if it is immovable, wouldn't somehow defy gravity and rescue a falling person from the top of a skyscraper from death. All that would happen is they would splat into pieces as they bounce off said object.

As I left the cinema a young kid said "I hope there's another Shazam film!" and I think kids will love it.

Really enjoyed this, this was a good fun film. Much better compared to Justice League.
