Surprisingly entertaining and good-humored piece. On how it was directed, it targets both young audiences and young at heart. I couldn't believe I would actually laugh on its jokes and punchlines. I thought it was made for middle schoolers but here I am, a 26-year old unemployed dude enjoying the movie more than I predicted I would. Definitely worth our while. I will be waiting for a sequel!

Thanks to a fun performance by Zachary Levi and a light yet imaginative spirit, Shazam is an entertaining take on the superhero genre. It works fine as a family film, a buddy flick, and a tentpole blockbuster. Levi plays the part similar to Tom Hanks in Big;he’s just a big kid at heart. Mark Strong is serviceable as the villain but he’s less interesting than his own demonic henchmen. It does run a little too long like the other DCEU movies.

The kind of movie "Superman" movies used to be, "Shazam!" is a whirlwind of delight.
