Fury of the gods meets wraith of the reviewers.
12 July 2023
Before I write my review, as in all of my prior reviews, it's difficult to rely user reviews on here lately because , it's obvious that whoever wrote them are biased. Hopefully you can trust mine.

With its perfect blend of humor, heart, and high-octane action, 'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' is an undeniable triumph in the superhero genre that effortlessly scores a flawless 10/10 rating.

From the opening scenes, the film demands attention with its masterful storytelling, introducing us again to the effervescent charisma of Zachary Levi as Shazam. Levi's performance elevates an already well-written script, effortlessly swinging between unfiltered joy and poignant depth that sets a new benchmark in superhero character development.

The sequel considerably ups the ante on its action sequences. The directorial team has crafted a visual spectacle that seamlessly integrates cutting-edge special effects with pulse-pounding, real-world action. The power of the gods has never felt more tangible, visceral, and thoroughly entertaining.

Moreover, the film expertly explores themes of family and responsibility, reinforcing its core message without losing the fun spirit that defines the Shazam franchise. The supporting cast complements Levi's performance brilliantly, ensuring there's never a dull moment throughout the movie's runtime.

'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' elevates itself above its predecessor with a bolder narrative and sharper wit, proving that a sequel can surpass the original. It's a resounding affirmation that superhero movies can be fun, dramatic, and thought-provoking all at once.

'Shazam! Fury of the Gods' is an absolute must-see, guaranteeing a cinematic experience that resonates long after the credits roll. This is more than just a superhero movie; it's a celebration of joy, family, and the hero within us all. It's an easy 10/10 and a lightning bolt of entertainment that you definitely don't want to miss!

Medellin (2023)

Well I thought it was great!

Warning: Spoilers
I always get confused when a good movie gets a slew of bad reviews like this one, I thought it was great and what it promoted itself to be... a comedy action movie, acting is good, I wish prime would've played a subbed version rather than a dubbed, but other than that I thoroughly enjoyed the movie for what it is, a comedy, the cinematography is fantastic, lots of cool camera tricks, Dutch angles, and great shots, the action felt like a great blend of Tarantino-esque, Michael bay and jerry bruckheimer inspired, laughed my butt off when they introduced Michael Tyson. I wouldn't nominate it for any esteemed awards or anything but I definitely think they did a great job making what they sent out to make. It's fun, kind of original, and kept me entertained throughout the entire film. I suggest it to anyone looking for a fun cinematic experience with out having any prolific expectations.

Modernized Nostalgia
29 April 2023
I am confused by the low rating. The movie does a better job following the plot line of the original than most of the other Disney live action remakes. Sure there are some things that have been updated and "modernized" which in my opinion makes it so much better! Representation matters! And this movie does a great job at it. The acting, especially for child actors is fantastic, story is an updated classic and brought back so many memories, directing is also great, and the special effects are top quality, maybe not up to par with what we have come to expect from Disney, but very well done regardless. My 2 kids absolutely loved, one is 3 the other is 6 and I have never seen them so focused on a movie of this length, and in the end that's what it's really about right? The kids. I recommend this movie to any parent that's looking to enjoy the movie as well.

Don't Let The Haters Fool You.
9 September 2022
Is it your typical marvel movie, not by a long shot so don't go in expecting it to be, its first and foremost a comedy but it includes some amazing dramatic moments as well as the intense action you would expect from a Thor movie. You may even question it at first, mostly due to the shock value of it not being what you would expect. Give it a chance. It's hilarious, it's experimental, it has in depth meaning and explores various facets of love and pain. I personally found it to be an amazing watch and highly recommended for anyone that can appreciate comedy and depth. IT IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL BLOCKBUSTER. But more so a work of art that stays true to the mythos. So please watch this movie and watch it for what it is and not what you expect it to be. So don't pay any mind to the haters, they probably went in expecting your typical non cerebral action flick and were given something to think about.
