    As a 55 year old man who grew up reading the library of comic books going back to the 1930s, it was absolutely CLEAR to me that they were trying to capture the feeling of the Fawcett comics' Captain Marvel, sort of fused with a more contemporary setting and foster family dynamic. This would, of COURSE, be completely alien stuff to Matt and non-comics folks. Dr. Sivana really was Captain Marvel's first/best villain, and I thought Mark Strong did a great job. What are you gonna do, though, right?

    • @Positron49
      @Positron49 3 года назад +9

      I agree with Matt, I complete agree with their attempt at the direction, but it needed a bit more editing and better screenwriting to support it. I loved the borderline kid movie feel, but the final act just felt cheap, like they didn’t realize how they were going to finish the movie until they went to film it.

I like the idea of a family of superheroes kinda like the Incredibles and it’s just a different kind of team or dynamic than the usual superhero teams and whether it’s logical or not the movie made it work really well. I feel like it’s one of the things that because it’s cannon from the comics it should stay that way. I can’t really imagine it any other way.

      On a side note, strictly based on people I’ve talked to, I think the state of the DCEU is very clear that out of all the announced projects from WB, the most anticipated is The Batman (the only announce DC movie not in the DCEU).

First with the Wizard Shazam trusting to give all his powers to Billy, and eventually Billy trusting his foster family by giving them individual powers of each Greek Gods. The theme of the movie is about trusting your family (contrast to his mom who abandoned him) and when Billy said "What good is power, if you got nobody to share it with." which is contrast to the villain who killed his family for his obsession with gaining power.

You don't like Thor, that's fine, I can totally see how it was boring to some people. It's not particularly exciting and not much happens. I just happen to like Thor being a joke in it. Things like him flipping out in the hospital and getting backed up into by a car and Darcy literally carried the movie for me. I don't think it's great, but I think it's simple enough in its straightforward plot that it didn't really mess up in any way for it to bother me and solid with it's characters to make it at least enjoyable enough to watch for some people like myself. Good movies should reach certain bench marks to be considered good, entertainment is heavily subjective.

That's not to say the acting was bad, I just think they were basically two different characters. Billy was so cynical of the world and mostly grumpy and antisocial, but when he was grown Shazam he was all like 'WOAH', performing in front of crowds 'LIGHTING WITH MY HANDS' 'AWesOME'. But then back to young Billy he was all serious again. Neither of the interpretations of the character are bad, I just think they were just so jarringly different to me that I couldn't believe they were the same person and therefor didn't feel close to either of them.

I enjoyed this more than any of the other DCEU movies, except maybe MoS that I think is underrated, but I felt the writing wasn't particularly great overall, I didn't feel the really dark tone they set with the bad guy meshed well with the tone of the kid side, the bad guy/monsters weren't all that interesting or utilized very well imo, I felt they should have leaned more into the kid learning to not use the power for selfish reasons (which could have tied back into the deadly sins), etc. It honestly felt like there was more unnecessary studio interference as there has been with every single one of these DCEU movies

It's fun movie to watch but the writing always felt like there were dozens of people trying to give their two cents on how the movie should be. I thought the first half was great and that they portrayed how a kid would react to becoming a superhero accurately. I wasn't a huge fan of how they became the Shazam family at the end. It feels too early and unearned.
