Aww, it makes me sad that you guys (especially Joe) didn't absolutely love it. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Personally I loved it, I'm going to watch it again.
People are entitled to dislike something if they want, *however*, people are also entitled to like the movie and not be questioned about it. I’ve had people come at me because I’m not into the MCU (I mean I’m not terribly into superhero films in general), but I’m not attacking anyone for liking those films. People honestly need to relax and allow people to feel how they feel whether it’s a positive or negative opinion. Opinions are just opinions, not right or wrong.
Yes, not a lot happens in the film...but that isn't really important for an origin film. The film is focused on Billy finding a place to call home and the shenangians that come up due to his new abilities. I also found it interesting that the Wizard ruined all these people's lives but Billy got the powers of Shazam...a kid who doesn't really deserve it at the beginning.
Ahmed Jama Right? He didn’t even get tested by the sins like Sivana did, so if it’s not necessary to be tested to transfer powers, why test anyone. Billy definitely would have failed the same test Sivana did.
I agree with Sam about Billy and Shazam characters not transitioning well. Billy is really serious and Shazam is really goofy and acts younger than Billy really is. But it did not ruin the movie and I still enjoyed it.
Definitely disagree with this one, this is easily the best DC movie after Wonder Woman. Solid 4/5. Joe's completely out on this one lmao. Raven really understood this movie, big ups to him!
BEFORE everybody in the comment section murders Joe.........Just understand that Literally about 85% of viewers LOVE Shazam, so just let him not enjoy it. Although I'm dissapointed that the rest of the couch didn't do a good job explaining to him why he's wrong, but it's w.e, it's his opinion.
The story while not overly complicated is the story of Billy Batson not realizing his responsibility. It's really him trying to find his mother or place in the world. It's a simple story but it's really the juxtaposition of pure of heart & evil. Savanna is the 7 deadly sins. Billy is just the champion the wizard choose because he had no time. It was an origin. So we get the learning your power tropes. But they made it interesting & fun. I mean it's defo a kids film. But the kids and foster family was the heart of the film. I have to say I loved it. Plus the horror elements with the 7 deadly sins was cool surprise. I really liked the board room scene.
I enjoyed the movie very much. Sometimes I feel like the origin movies feel too rushed. This didn't. The pacing was fine. I thought they did a great job with the the little budget they had. Loved the acting from everyone. Hopefully in the sequel it will be provided with more money.I think they can do something phenomenal in the sequel with more money.
You know...we're quite similar joe A reason why i avoid movies like these is because they are mostly bland No one is willing to take risks with story telling and in depth detail in movies anymore...its just quirky jokes with good special effects
_Shazam!_ was everything I expected it to be. I did not expect it to be a huge money-guzzling block-buster. I expected it to be solid, decent, and entertaining. It was. Sometimes you can catch lighting-in-a-bottle and a movie becomes a transcendent masterpiece. That was never an option here. It did what it needed to do. Established Shazam as a character in the DCU. Every MCU film wasn't the greatest either. For example. I like Captain America as a _character_ in all of the MCU films, but his origin movie was *ass.* This movie did what it needed to do.
I mean, the costume is faithfull to a recent shazam animated serie from last year if im not mistaken, and its also faithfull to Geoff Johns and Dale Eaglesham comic suit version, and the script is pretty on point for a origin, some of the bad points that the one on the left makes fall short close to a knit pick if you ask me.
Had a pretty good experience with Shazam!. I actually think its better than Aquaman which was unexpected. However i wanna go for a second watch because i feel like it doesnt get as much appreciation as it should.
These chaps wouldn't know a funny and entertaining movie if it came in the guise of a young Pamela Anderson and stripped in front of em, lmao!! :D Edit: BTW, I really liked Shazam! 8/10!
I agree alot with Joe but don't understand why he doesn't get Raven and Sam thought it was good, let them have their opinion once you have said yours. Joe didn't like it, that's fine. Raven and Sam did like it. That's fine. I thought I was just meh. SPOILERS The 2nd act is so poor. The 1st act, up till he gets his powers was great, and I enjoyed it because it was focused on family and Billy's struggle. It feels weird to say this but the worst bits about this film was the Superhero elements, should've focused on emotion and the character development and then do a big fight scene at the end. I enjoyed the film when was wasn't in the suit basically. As Sam said the translation between Kid Billy and Adult Billy wasn't the best. The last fight was so boring imo, very generic and the Kids getting powers reveal took away from Billy being Shazam massively.
Mad Max fury road is a film where a convoy turns left instead of going straight to escape a tyrant. One sentence that explains the start of the movie. Is anyone here going to say Mad max fury road is a bad movie? I havent even seen shazam yet but Joe's criticism is so weak. Then he has a go at raven for saying that the movie made good use of shazam's history? He needs to grow up
Joe is the embodiment of general DC haters lol. I loved this movie for what it was and its core values of family and belonging really shine through for me. Dr Silvana was definitely more than a one-note villain, being given immense power as kid and then having it it all being taken away only to give to someone else who didn't deserve it anymore than you. That scene with Billy and his mother really got to me and I was completely sold from there onwards. Cannot wait for a second installment and this definitely trumps Captain marvel for me
People like every formulaic marvel movie but when dc does different types of movie people say its ok blah blah its good and when marvel does antman and wasp or captain marvel or Gotg2 people are like it was fucking great . I mean what do you want 😂
Joe.... Fam... I feel you! I was in the same state at the end of the movie... Like... Some people applaused... I was so mad! "Why do you applause for ? The story ? The characters ?? The villain ? The special effects ?! FAAAM!!" I didn't like it... Not one bit! #TeamJoe
@@gregwxst "Someone has an opinion different than mine! I'm gonna curse at him and make myself look like an ass! Reeeeeee!" That's you right now with that comment.
What was so amazing about it? Most of the good parts were spoiled in the trailer. There were things I liked but I didn’t have nearly the amount of fun that people said they were having and i tend to appreciate damn near everything
@@DiplomaTIC5 I was mad for all the promotion saying that movie is the DCU savior... What?! Aquaman was way better story wise, in the special effects territory and with a better cast. The kids were amazing, no doubt, they were the soul of this movie... But that's it! I was hoping to see a Black Adam teaser to get hype... Sad.
Hey, Joe! I read the comics too. It's a pity since the New 52 version of Shazam! featured the backstory of Black Adam which was the BEST part of the comics. In the movie, it sucks that he chose Billy Batson because he lacks time. In the comics, there was a dialogue that convinced the wizard to choose him. Sad. I love the movie though. But it lacks the good parts of the comics.
If you watched the movie he did choose black adam in the past when he was explaining to Billy that he once choose a champion but then he used the powers for revenge he just didn't say the name Adam.
@@KonohazFinest What I meant was the backstory of Black Adam - how he got his powers and the crisis of his ancient home Kahndaq. That was the story that really struck my heart. The explanation why he is evil.
@@Kaiistheking that's what I'm saying the wizard shows Billy that but so they didn't spoil anything the wizard didn't name drop anything. Did you see the movie?
Just seen Shazam and to be honest it was rubbish, its a kids movie that could be on Saturday morning TV...Im not a DC or Marvel fan boy but Captain Marvel was miles better than this. Unfortunately, another miss for DC...
I love these guys, but they're just wrong on this one. Shazam was fantastic. They expect everything to be like Marvel. I tired of Marvel. Marvel's a bloated mess.

Literally every superhero movie ever either starts the movie with power or gains it during the film and then defeats a bad guy
Aww, it makes me sad that you guys (especially Joe) didn't absolutely love it. Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Personally I loved it, I'm going to watch it again.
Joe comes off way more condescending than Raven. But I rarely agree with Joe anyways lol

Joe about to get all the smoke in the comments 😂
Lmao he been askin for it since the joker trailer 😂😂
It is what it is! Lol
what movie did you guys watch? I loved shazam
Iman Aljaber you actually felt the need to reply to him? Wow
@@SquirtleTurtle. You are a special kind of stupid
I feel like people who hate on Shazam are just typical DC haters honestly, it's a lighthearted film that you don't take seriously

@@elevatedream According to the movie the Wizard was about to die, the sins were released and he was desperate.
I agree with Sam about Billy and Shazam characters not transitioning well. Billy is really serious and Shazam is really goofy and acts younger than Billy really is. But it did not ruin the movie and I still enjoyed it.
Joe looks like he's sitting in a dentist chair with a cavity and the other two are dentist very painful.
Definitely disagree with this one, this is easily the best DC movie after Wonder Woman. Solid 4/5.
Joe's completely out on this one lmao. Raven really understood this movie, big ups to him!
👀 WOW
😂🤣😂🤣😂
I was with Joe the whole time. My thoughts projected in the video
Sounds like two of you don’t know how to have fun at a movie. This is the most enjoyable DC movie I’ve seen in a long time.
So your dictating what's fun and not for people? Hmmmmmm
Gonna put it simply, Shazam is a character you don't take seriously, it's supposed to be stupid and enjoyable.
BEFORE everybody in the comment section murders Joe.........Just understand that Literally about 85% of viewers LOVE Shazam, so just let him not enjoy it. Although I'm dissapointed that the rest of the couch didn't do a good job explaining to him why he's wrong, but it's w.e, it's his opinion.
Lol someone has to speak the truth
Y’all convos had me dead LMAOO. Hopefully Joe watches it again and ends up enjoying it more
That won't be happening wasted enough time

joe is buggin lol
Thanks
be cool Joe it's not a captain marvel movie 😂😂 😂
It's the CORRECT Captain Marvel movie. :0)
Shazam was epic 10 out of 10
If the fighting scenes was as good as MOS then it would have been better. But yeah its still awesome tho
You know...we're quite similar joe
A reason why i avoid movies like these is because they are mostly bland
No one is willing to take risks with story telling and in depth detail in movies anymore...its just quirky jokes with good special effects
Did you see the movie ?
I stopped by so you can @ me! 😘 Please direct all smoke directly at me.
Did u not like the movie?
All that preamble is really unnecessary. Name. Director. Main actors. Go.
Honestly. They need to change the way they review. Reactions are great though. 😇
Shazam was ok/good. Nice little family movie, not really my cup of tea but still a decent movie. Joe is big mad.
Shazam was dope! I enjoyed it a lot
That movie was so dark, I saw it last night, the CGI was cringe when Shazam was flying, his head was floating. Aquaman is better in my opinion
Lmfao how is it cringe? Something must be definitely wrong with you
Just watched it today...wasn’t too bad! It’s nice to see a lighter theme to DC
Has Superman Cameo in it ?????

Since you guys saw shazam did you guys happen to see the Godzilla five minute trailer that showed with the shazam movie ?
I saw iit and liked it...I gave it a 7/10 but I have no idea why there was approximately 7 people in the entire 4pm screening...why?
All the comments bout Joe trippin 😂
More, more more......
Alright Joe, you weren't very engaged in this review, and that's not typical for you, even when you don't like a movie. What's going on?
I mean, the costume is faithfull to a recent shazam animated serie from last year if im not mistaken, and its also faithfull to Geoff Johns and Dale Eaglesham comic suit version, and the script is pretty on point for a origin, some of the bad points that the one on the left makes fall short close to a knit pick if you ask me.
Wtf? What movie did Joe watch? he should stop watching movies from now on. Shazam was so damn good that my theater had a blast!
Lmfao. Shazam was amazing
Had a pretty good experience with Shazam!. I actually think its better than Aquaman which was unexpected. However i wanna go for a second watch because i feel like it doesnt get as much appreciation as it should.
I think we should all agree MEAGAN GOOD should get her own movie in that outfit. 🔥💝🔥💝🔥💝🔥💝🔥💝🔥💝
Billy’s costume is cool but the other costumes look like they have fake mussels
These chaps wouldn't know a funny and entertaining movie if it came in the guise of a young Pamela Anderson and stripped in front of em, lmao!! :D
Edit: BTW, I really liked Shazam! 8/10!
I agree alot with Joe but don't understand why he doesn't get Raven and Sam thought it was good, let them have their opinion once you have said yours. Joe didn't like it, that's fine. Raven and Sam did like it. That's fine. I thought I was just meh.
