2019's teen oriented actioner "Shazam" may be a fresh, rather irreverent, take on the superhero genre (without a stellar cast) but it's still ultimately just another superhero flick, with big budget effects (via director David F Sandberg) and limited depth or meaning (in Henry Gayden's screenplay). When tearaway Philadelphia teen Asher Angel's drawn to a mystical cave he's endowed with superpowers, silly costume & the body of Zachary Levi (to foster bro Jack Dylan Glazer's delight). It's all good fun til he must battle evil super-villain Mark Strong and his accompanying 'deadly sins'. Standard guff, stretched over 2hrs+, and set over Crimbo (so only to be watched in Dec).
