Johnfricotta

Everything about this movie just feels bottom of the barrel. The story is awful, the acting is even worse, and the dialogue feels dubbed in. No matter where the actors are, all the dialogue comes in at the same volume, feeling unnatural. The villain is laughable but at least he took an acting class or 2.

"The name's Boo, how do you do?"

The main problem with this movie is that it just feels too out of place. Who is this really for? It takes place in a Gotham that feels absolutely nothing like Gotham. Did Suicide Squad not take place? Margot Robbie is great as HQ but this movie gave her an absolutely terrible story arc that was something you have seen in better movies, many times. And the Birds of Prey, the gang who gets together 15 minutes before the credits roll, some cringe dialogue is involved in their escapades. Overall the movie is disappointing and follows DCs trend of underwhelming super hero movies. Shazam is still easily their best outing.

This movie fits the word mediocre perfectly. It doesn't do anything that great nor does it do anything that bad. Decent acting from most of the cast. Weird comedic timing from TJ Miller where most of his lines come off unnatural or just don't land. I liked the pacing of the movie, even the fact that there was close to no exposition. You pretty much know just as much as these characters and they are all likable enough that you don't want anyone axed. Fun watch, over quick.
