Shazam! (2019)

20240222:
I don't know. I understand that Shazam is just a kid, but I feel like he shouldn't look like a kid. Something about the look of this version of Shazam seems off. On a related note, the villain seemed overpowered and yet lost. While there were some elements as to why he lost, it didn't feel convincing. I think this is poor story telling.

Netflix determined the movie for me as a 95% match. I decided to give the movie neither a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.

Smile. "Billy!"
Hmm. I feel like breaking the staff isn't a great idea
Oh... do they only have components of his power? (flight, super speed, strength, and lightning... but what does Mary have?) [The DCEU fandom wiki says "like Billy, and unlike the others, her powers do not appear to be specialized towards any one ability."]
Hahaha. The evil guy speech
He's clearly faking them out.
Smile. Superman.
