Shazam Fury of the Gods
I have seen shit in my 53 years o this Earth. I have sen shit in my life... One more time for the dumbarses in the back.. I HAVE SEEN SHIT IN MY LIFE and this film is dogshit.. bad acting.. Various same old tropes that I've seen in much better well written films. I guess WB didn't pay a lot for the [SPOILER - highlight to read]: dragon cgi. Best parts were when [SPOILER - highlight to read]: hellen mirren beat up Shazam in the beginning and when the little black girl cussed. Rachel Zegler phoned it in since she herself said she needed a job. This is a total waste of time and barely gets a 0001 rating.

Seems WB just can't make a good superhero sequel these days.

When Bruce says anything other than "this was good" that's when you know it's utter cack

Been reading the director has decided to go back to doing horror movies and also wasn't expecting a repeat of the first films success
quote: “I wasn’t expecting a repeat of the first movie critically but I was still a little surprised because I think it’s a good film. Oh well,” he tweeted
Sandberg also revealed that after the DC film, he was taking a step back from more superhero movies and getting back into the horror genre..

Probably also doesn't help draw the crowd in having more grownup actors who have to act like children. One was tolerable in the first movie. Having multiple just looks annoying.

For reference, what did you think about the first Shazam film?

Rotten Tomatoes gives the first film a solid 90%, this one gets an anemic 52%.
Damn, as I rather enjoyed the first film, a solid SH flick, that.

Same.
I heard the 70s TV Billy Batson makes a cameo at least which is kinda nice, like the 70s Wonder Woman cameo at the end of WW 1984. The Shazam show I liked more than hers from what I saw on Tubi though.

I guess it also doesn't help it that the director back out of the using Mister Mind & Doctor Sivana teaming up, Basically set that up at the end of the first movie.

I remember actually being pleasantly surprised by the first one, but yeah, I don't have much interest in a sequel. Maybe check it out later if I'm bored. Might be something I can turn on while my kids are in the room.
