I know i got a history of gloating this but, why tick all the generic items off the list straight away, this movie had potential but nevermind, it seems the bigwigs want us to always consume the same mind numbing crap, its the "average-joe" design of the movie that ticks me off honestly.

Plot, there isnt one actually, its just characters moving or falling on their respective places to continue the plot. Its truely lifeless. Thing is the character background has been done before, and better too but not in this movie.

SFX, it was average, it was weird but you could see the parts of the movie that were CGI, it was low-budget taste.

Shazam himself is somewhere between Spiderman-Superman-Batman, all the guys he laughs at while being worst than himself. It was truely an odd duck this movie. You know what they set out to do, a Kick-Ass style parody that both conveys a new direction for the superhero cliche while keeping the satire fresh. Shazam's direction is that of fast food stuff, they removed all the parts that could have transported us to some genuine emotions instead gave us a short-cut-straight-to-your-emotions kitsch. It gives you the feeling that hasnt earned its humour by being not funny, that was a funny phrasing, and it hasnt earned its agency by being not serious at all.

3/10 for curiosity and being bored so had to suffer through it.
