About this movie

We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Asher Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Zachary Levi), courtesy of an ancient wizard (Djimon Hounsou). Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them! Can he fly? Does he have X-ray vision? Can he shoot lightning out of his hands? Can he skip his social studies test? Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of a child. But he’ll need to master these powers quickly in order to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana (Mark Strong).

It's fine. It just needed more superhero elements. Sometimes the jokes are a little too much, almost annoying even. The fight scenes are very lacking, still it's better than BVS , Suicide Squad. It's charming.

Ive seen all other movies throughout the DC Universe from Warner Bros. This movies is comedic and a good lengthy bit of a movie compared to a lot of others. I say this only because a lot of movies are cliche on how standard movies can be. This movie was a bit out the way of that and I enjoyed this movie.

Would've given it 5 stars, but when I looked up "Fantasy Movies" in the Play Store this came up. 1 star subtracted due to Google's misslabeling. I would classify this as a Superhero Comedy
