Review of Black Adam (2022) by Fuad_Rmnm — 22 Oct 2022

Much better than Eternals (2021), but not than the Avengers.

Finally Big Super heroes team again! Goodbye to the latest floppy of Marvel’s big team, Eternals (2021). Marvel still failed to make a great big superhero team again, after the Avenger's end. Wait, how about Marvel’s Guardian of The Galaxy or the new Thor Adventure?

Umm.. that’s so a different market compared to the Avengers. So, it seems DC Comics is ready to rock their failure by casting The Rock as Black Adam. To rockin’ more, this movie cast a huge cast such as old James Bond, Pierce Brosnan. Demand more rock? There is a rock song from one of the greatest bands, The Rolling Stone.

The movie story is pretty odd because some of them are doesn’t make sense. But, slowly but surely it is revealed to make it make sense, although it is still not plausible. Friendly reminder, this is very typical for superheroes movie, so plz don’t compare to sci-fi, mystery, or even Martin Scorsese’s movies. Superhero movies focused on moral values, motivation, inspiration, and any emotional things. Not a logical thing, for sure. But still, this movie story could be greater! Best DC Comics movie story still Batman or Watchmen (2009).

Besides, the visuals were pretty disappointing. It could be greater too!? Personally, my best DC Comic visuals, especially on CGI are the Aquaman or Batman movies. But, this movie still has affordable visuals.

However, this movie is so satisfying! Suitable paced not boring or too long narration, and vividly feels like a superhero ambiance. Also, these movie jokes are fit, not too much but still funny. We might be already bored with the typical funny guy hero movie such as Thor: Love and Thunder (2022). Rite? Another satisfaction is the chars. This movie tells us big superhero team, Justice Society. This must be an intro for new movies of the DC Comic blockbuster arc! This could be proven by the mid-credit scene, don’t miss it at the end of this movie! Besides, personally, I love Dr. Fate's char! His looks and persona are so fancy & very extravagant! Sadly, he didn’t the main char so just appeared occasionally. Lastly, great moral values are very typical of superheroes movie. This movie implied, RN, irl, we mustn't see anything through the binary lens, only black and white. But, it is politically proper and not too much or too vivid such as Thor: Love and Thunder (2022). Recap, better watch it! It seems important to catch up the next DC Comics superheroes, esp. upcoming Aquaman sequels! Claimed as a part of DC Extended Universes (DCEU). That is why this movie provides a lot of superheroes. Good to fueled our demand for superheroes team ambiance! 7/10.
