Review of Shazam! (2019) by Clairependragon — 05 Apr 2019

The movie has the same mediocre special effects of most DC movies.

Most of the acting was pretty darn good.

The scenarios were also pretty darn great at times. Humor was more entertaining than the times it fell flat. (Santa) The beginningThe movie has the same mediocre special effects of most DC movies.

Most of the acting was pretty darn good.

The scenarios were also pretty darn great at times.

Humor was more entertaining than the times it fell flat. (Santa).

The beginning was a solid 8. Could have been a 9 if it handled some of its good ideas better. (Bus scene was a great idea, but handled poorly).

Then the action sequences took a child cartoon approach. (for obvious reasons) Which drastically hurt the last bit of the movie for me. (Ironically, most people enjoyed the ending, and hated the start. But then again, most super hero fans tend to like action, and I tend to find it boring, if nothing interesting is happening.).

The ending could have been a massive success, if they copied ONE thing from the marvel movies. (Sadly I can't say what it is, otherwise knowing it doesnt contain this, is a sort of spoiler.) But like the rest of the movie, the ending has a GREAT idea, and handled it poorly. (probably to save on money.).

RATING: 70% Above average, and mostly enjoyable.

Semi comparable to Thor3, humor wasnt as spot on as Thor3, but the actual plot was more interesting than Thor3.
