Review of Shazam! (2019) by Darkvaporsynth — 18 Jul 2019

Wow, it looks like people downvoted negative reviews completely out of spite alone, smh.

I just watched this for the first time on RedBox. It looked like a good movie from the trailers. I was wrong. Mainly, this is a movie for teenagers or younger possibly (pg-13 though?). The plot was very basic, clearly written to a child's level. The villain was pretty lame and barely dangerous. A lot of downtime where nothing seemed to be going on, it was boring at times. The dialogue was cringey at times, seemed lazy or just poorly written, however realizing at the end that this was a kids movie, probably just dumbed down. I seriously considered turning it off around half-way through. Honestly not sure I'm going to give DC movies another chance. Very disappointing.
