George Clark’s review published on Letterboxd:
Shazam! Fury Of The Gods is a big step down from the first movie, proving once again that bigger isn’t always better, upping the stakes while loosing much of the heart that made the first so touching. While the horror opening is fantastic, the cast all do a great job (mainly Levi, Angel, Grazer and Zegler), and it honestly is a lot of fun, it’s the definition of a generic comic book movie with the story rarely working for me and villains falling flat throughout. I truly love these character and the cast that plays them, they’re honestly perfect for the roles so hopefully James Gunn keeps them around but man do they need a better story to be in. It has its moments but honestly, it’s a big let down and one of the biggest disappointment I’ve had in quite some time. It’s fine but man it could have been so much better. Go and support it in theatres though as I would love to see these characters come back!
Regardless of my thoughts on the movie…I still want to be a part of the Shazamily!
