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).

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

I adore this movie and best ending ever! Watched atleast 10 times. If you're a fan of super hero's with attitudes and smart ass 1 liners...youll love this. And girls he's sooooo cute and quite sexy. Cant wait for next 1!

I love this movie and I've been a big fan of Shazam since I was a kid and I'm 55. I use to watch the old Saturday morning tv show back when I was 10 years old. I think slme people are getting this movie mixed up with Kazaam which starred Shaquille O'neal. Shazam is based on a dc comic book and Kazaam is not.
