I went with high hopes and was utterly dissapointed. It's like venom all over again, but I had no hopes for venom at all, yet I'm still as dissapointed.

I honestly feel like this movie is a waste of time and money. I wasn't expecting it to be half as good as Aquaman, but at least have a good time with it.
I rate it 2/10 because the "discovering your powers bit" was great. Nothing else is salvageable
So I went to see Shazam!
Hey ladderbro! Have you eaten the disk yet?
You realize children don't care about most of the things you mentioned, right? Why don't you tell your kids to post what they thought of the movie?
I want to believe but you could just be an anti-DC disney shill since it has been all but proven that disney shills astroturf Yea Forums
>It's like venom all over again
Only without the box office success
Hi fucktard did Shazam make more than Captain Marvel yet?
I wish I could prove it to you, but all you can do is trust a random man on the internet. I genuinely, honestly think the movie was terrible and even thought about walking out of the theater. But I also didn't go to watch the captain marvel movie, nor have any intention to. Im just a guy who wanted to have a fun time with a lighthearted movie that doesn't take itself seriously, but didn't find it with shazam
I had to go home a jerk off to...
Woah, eating the disc completely gave you autism madness.
Wait, you went by yourself to see a childrens movie?!
HAHAHAHA! What an incel.
You saw the trailer with the guy dabbing and thought "Yep, this is gonna b kino!"
Lol, you didn't even made it ten posts before showing your agenda, go back to Yea Forums Ladderbro.
I want to fuck young Mary and Billy's foster mom.
Why is it that people here think that by hating something, you love the other thing? Why can't we have honest opinions without being slaves to multimillion companies? Why do you guys take offense on a honest review, and how do you differentiate them from a fake one? I don't know when the 5 dimensional shitposting will stop, but it's sure not fun to engage with.
How did it get this bad? What do you guys gain from defending marvel or dc? Why have such attachment to movies that are inherently flawed and rush to defend them so eagerly?
I would like to think that nobody is getting paid, but I think it would be better if they were. At least the posters would have a reason to ruin it for everyone.
this is my last (You) you're getting from me namefag, keep the change
Saw this tonight myself, can confirm it's a bit of a let down. Didn't mind that it was light hearted but they started off pretty strong and the stakes sort of just got lower and lower til the actions scenes were just reduced to watching time go by. No real coherence, like op said, pacing was all over.
Gonna disagree on the mother plot line thing, though. I saw that more as an allegory for abortion almost. Or more generally, the problem of people not taking responsibility for children. I liked the family narrative.
you didn't see the movie
What if i actually think that you are wrong and autistic and Shazam was great?
>outing yourself like this

Go back with him cross posting numale
>>villain is obviously trash, but what's even worse is that the seven deadly sins are a joke. typical CGI mass produced monsters who are no menace to anyone (aren't they supposed to be responsible for ALL the evil in the world, thus most of the deaths?)
...were you paying any attention to the plot?
Serious question.
Because this is literally explained in the movie without the main characters writing it out and telling you directly.
Venom was good though. Better than Aquaman
it tried to hard to be a happy meal version of deadpool

>DC makes a genuinely great movie for the first time in 11 years
>it’s a flop
Just fucking end me already the DCEU is officially done bury the shit already and start from scratch
>Aquaman
>flop
I don't think that word means what you think it means.
I literally did, retard. I already proved it by spoiling the plot points
That's a different taste and you may have had way less hype than me. I just can't bring myself to enjoy a movie like that when every 5 minutes I'm getting bombarded by stupidity, and not in the funny way. However, you can't deny that it objectively has flaws.
What else was I supposed to get, other than this:
>baldie's family asshole to him (unrealistically)
>staff nigger says to his face that he's a bad child
>finds out that the way to get to the shazam cave again is by writing the seven symbols seven times, yet never did this accidentally
>gets the power that he so desperately wanted, yet doesn't kill the nigger to prevent trouble
>fucks around until the deadly sins tell him that billy has the shazam power, and NOW decides that he needs even more power (because power corrups right guise?)
I may admit this: The seven deadly sins may not have been exactly the literal representation of evil like the demons lords in Diablo, but they were nothing but CGI monsters. And the plot device that made baldy vulnerable when losing them is nothing but stupid. They're manipulative demons yet get manipulated by a fucking 14 year old. How insulting.
I didn't see the movie either and nothing you posted makes it sound like you watched it.
Just move on.
Have sex
Based retards. Simply based. When someone points out the truth and it's inconvenient to your narrative, you have no other response than "you're a retard lul". You're literally no different at all from the leftists that you so much hate. When you have to resort to hide in your pathetic circlejerk instead of debating with truth, you officially become a lesser human regardless of your views. A slave if you will.
>character acts like a dick till he learns to be better
No shit, Sherlock, that's literally how character development goes
Also, the humour was great and a lot better than the generic Hollywood humour we usually get
>bullies face no repercussions
>parents are evil
Wow, just like in real life. You're either a troll, a Disney shill, or straight up dumb
>Sivana's family was inrealistically asshole to him
At this point, you should just give up your shitposting since you clearly have no clue about movies nor real life. You apparently live in your own basement bubble where you only dwell on the internet talking about shit you know jack shit about
>Yea Forums loves a movie that celebrates foster children and racially diverse families now
>Projection: The Post
ITT edgy teenagers exagerating their suffering
My mother is the evilest, most disgusting piece of shit I know and she would never be half as evil as sivana's family. How fucking deluded do you have to be to think that YOUR OWN FUCKING FATHER AND BROTHER would INMEDIATLY blame you for a car accident, before even saying "call the ambulance" or "are you ok?"
But i guess it's ok. i'm just a troll, a disney shill, a tranny, or whatever makes your blind rage justified. after all, everything that i like is good and everything that i hate is bad.
What would the kid look like?
a modern american
Probably a nigger
Prove me wrong then. But this time without namecalling or being part of the hivemind. I want you to honestly tell me why my criticism of the movie is not valid, even if you just need to imagine for one fucking moment of your life that not everyone is a shill
>>baldie's family asshole to him (unrealistically)
You're a sheltered retard
>>staff nigger says to his face that he's a bad child
Because he was one
>>finds out that the way to get to the shazam cave again is by writing the seven symbols seven times, yet never did this accidentally
Correct, I'm not sure what was confusing you about this.
>>gets the power that he so desperately wanted, yet doesn't kill the nigger to prevent trouble
He couldn't kill him, using the n word literally only makes you look retarded. He didn't have any control of his new powers and the only man would have just teleported him away.
>>fucks around until the deadly sins tell him that billy has the shazam power, and NOW decides that he needs even more power (because power corrups right guise?)
He's being used, he is completely enveloped in power. He literally spent his entire life searching for this. Something everyone told him was fake. Of course he's going to not be thinking straight. He was never a good kid to begin with.
>You're a sheltered retard
you're a drama queen, and a teenager
>Because he was one
he got brought against his will to the nigger's cave, thinking his family was dead, and was promised to be his heir. Yet when he became temptated by the evil, he's a terrible human being. Why bring him there at all? Why have the fucking orb in a place where any gullible children can access it?
>Correct, I'm not sure what was confusing you about this.
He was researching about the cave and the mage for twenty fucking years. He had already SIX layers of the seven symbols written in the blackboard. He NEVER ONCE IN 20 YEARS OF EXTENSIVE RESEARCH accidentally wrote it 7 times.
>He couldn't kill him, using the n word literally only makes you look retarded. He didn't have any control of his new powers and the only man would have just teleported him away.
Based redditor exposing himself. You're a fucking nigger. I can say nigger as much as I want. The nigger was weak enough to be unable to prevent him to reaching the orb, and his last attack was pitiful. He got bodied by the mist of the deadly sins, and you're saying that he would've had enough energy to teleport away? Teleport where? He never leaves his cave because he's relying on a new recruit
>He's being used, he is completely enveloped in power. He literally spent his entire life searching for this. Something everyone told him was fake. Of course he's going to not be thinking straight. He was never a good kid to begin with.
So he's inherently evil yet the evil demons are controlling him. You yourself said that he's a bad kid, so that means he wanted to do what he did. Funny how you didn't address that the demons got outsmarted by a 14 year old boy. If the demons and sivana really wanted to reign supreme, they wouldn't have even hesitated to kill innocents until shazam inevitably had to show up, and when he did, just kill him.
You've exposed yourself to be a redditor, and a nigger. You have to go back where you belong
holy shit, thanks, you save me some money
Don't worry OP I just went to see it and I also feel the same way. Even after six or so movies DC still can't choreograph a fight scene to have any stakes. Very disappointing!
Hmm... an honest review, with facts from film, and great insight.
>YOU MUST BE A MARVELSHILL
Only a Marvel fan would buy advance tix to Shazam, sit through the entire film but actually have a negative opinion! You're not fooling us Skrull. If you were a true DChad, you'd pretend to like it even though it was utter garbage just like the rest of our films.
I trust you OP, I watched Venom and it was probably one of the worst movies I ever sat through, by the end I was doing other shit and the movie was background noise
Except it's all bullshit
Trailers look kinda fun tho
Yea Forums told me this movie is bombing
Yea Forums's resident anti-DC man told you it's bombing
After every capeshit making huge amounts of money for years, one that does less seems like it's bombing
>being this underage
Yeah, I'm thinking you should be banned.
You have people acting like this is another fan4stic though when it clearly isn't. It's like First Class or Spider-Verse. Except Shazam was a lot cheaper than First Class and that still got sequels
Fantastic response my reddit fren. You thought about it for long enough to drisprove each and every one of my points. Don't worry though, I'm sure your masters will throw you a very nice bone, being such an obedient and nice dog that you are
>being this underage
Yeah, I'm thinking you should be banned.
Just got back. Movie is a lot of fun, sets out to do what it wants and has a likeable cast. I wish we could have seen more time lapse with Billy and the foster family instead of him bonding with them all so quickly over the course of a few days. It didn’t feel as organic as a result but I at least enjoyed their time on screen.
7/10, not bad.
Mary was a cutie and I wish to procreate with her marriage.
>(aren't they supposed to be responsible for ALL the evil in the world, thus most of the deaths?)
How did you get that when literally an evil wizard free'd them from captivity.
they are literally called the seven deadly sins.
The movie needed about 10 minutes more of the family and Savana not yet a villain
Like anybody should accept the review of a DC shill who preordered tickets weeks ago. Your mind was already made up.
Now go back to Yea Forums faggot.
calm down, mickey
Agreed. A small time skip of a couple months would have been perfect
Imagine not being able to understand a story without someone writing it out for you and directly stating the obvious.
Yeah, I'm thinking you're underage.
I agree with pretty much everything. I liked the humour a bit more and the Shazam family was made of 6 not 7 people but that's it. The movie really jumped shark when the villain tried blackmailing Billy.
Bait thread, nothing to see here.
So disappointing... All the effort it took you to write this shit and you fuck it up in only a few words.
>strawmanning
>still can't disprove ONE (1) of my points
I'm not that guy, I'm the OP, but you're probably enough of a faggot to not believe me. Posting a screencap with the (you) is not proof anyways... and I guess it's better for you to just dismiss actual truth as bait. What does that remind you of? Probably of nothing, but that doesn't stop other people from pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of your "argument". Whatever makes you sleep at night I guess.
>y-you still haven't proven me wrong
Imagine getting assblasted so bad that you live in denial for the rest of the dialogue you have in your NPC chat box.
>he got brought against his will to the nigger's cave, thinking his family was dead, and was promised to be his heir. Yet when he became temptated by the evil, he's a terrible human being. Why bring him there at all? Why have the fucking orb in a place where any gullible children can access it?
This don't excuse the fact he was evil, none of that excuse his actions
>He was researching about the cave and the mage for twenty fucking years. He had already SIX layers of the seven symbols written in the blackboard. He NEVER ONCE IN 20 YEARS OF EXTENSIVE RESEARCH accidentally wrote it 7 times.
And? Why would he? You can spend 100 years doing research but if nothing leads you to the conclusion it will work if somehow write it 7 times then there is no reason he will do it.
>Darling shitty anime
Fucking shit eater, you're in no position to call anything bad.
Wait he doesn’t even dab in the movie
I was pretty disappointed about that. All we got was a floss.
ad hominem is not a valid argument
again, he was baited. children are naive and will not think about consequences, specially when put in a dream-like situation
>And? Why would he? You can spend 100 years doing research but if nothing leads you to the conclusion it will work if somehow write it 7 times then there is no reason he will do it.
by sheer chance, he might've investigated the symbols, and may have had to write them multiple times in order to study them. He found this out by watching a video of a woman recording her clock, and he instantly recognized that it repeated seven times even though the symbols were scattered in 4 pieces. Complete and utter bullshit
This is my last reply that you're getting. Also, I know those 3 replies were you, and I know you can fit them all in one post, but thanks for the bump nigger.
I had a fun time watching it. Nothing too great, but its DC so you know what you're getting.
OP is a fag
