Sinopsis(1)
Película sobre Black Adam (Dwayne Johnson), uno de los supervillanos más peligrosos pertenecientes al Universo de DC Comics, ya que no hay ningún héroe que lo haya superado, ni siquiera el mismísimo Superman. Además, cuenta con una experiencia de miles de años, pues su origen se encuentra en el antiguo Egipto, alrededor del año 1200 a.C., donde fue sumo sacerdote. Tiene diversos poderes, como la inmortalidad o la fuerza y velocidad sobrehumanas. (Warner Bros. España)

They try their best, but with a stupid and muddled script that even The Rock can’t move. Dwayne's dream project has finally arrived and it's not bad, but it's not very good either. It’s average, with an excellent Brosnan, whose Doctor Fate deserves his own film. On the other hand, the rest of the JSA team, or whatever it was, is rather crap, but someone has to do that job. Black Adam has a couple of great scenes where he slices up the bad guys, rips their arms off, and doesn't coddle them at all, but he gets to the gory action for strange reasons, often with no apparent motivation. Colett-Serra doesn't have a coherent story to fill out the Snyder-esque slow motion action, but he tries; it's not much fun, unfortunately. Now we need to pray that Gunn writes the script for the sequel and that Clark will by for more than a brief chat.

#11 DCEU. Black Adam is a spin-off of Shazam!, and that is the most important thing you need to know in advance. It's not DC for adults, it's just another piece of the puzzle for teens. Unfortunately, the film was worked on for too long, so today its inclusion in the branching DCEU is only harmful. What's the point of all those winks, cameos, and Easter eggs when the whole world is constantly being restarted? Why introduce another team, the Justice Society of America, when apparently we won't see them again in this lineup and with these actors? Dwayne Johnson, Sarah Shahi, and Pierce Brosnan are fine, but all those promises leading nowhere are a problem. RIP Sups.

It's not often that a DC film grabs my attention, but this one did. It has what many other DC films lack: humor, engaging characters, and Dwayne Johnson as the perfectly conflicted superhero Black Adam. Add in some impressive action scenes directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, and you've got an American adventure blockbuster that I thoroughly enjoyed.

I really don't want to watch this anymore. After Zack Snyder’s departure, I thought Warner wouldn't send these movies out anymore, but Black Adam actually looks exactly the same as the Snyder films, only that Jaume Collet-Serra uses about a third less slow motion. We still get more than an annoying amount of it though, and when the action starts, you don't really enjoy it because when it's not slow motion, it's either chaos or just golden-blue flashing. And there’s action more or less all the time, because there's nothing to stand on in terms of story, character depth, or anything else that could potentially engage, and they probably knew that. Black Adam is an emaciated over-colourful action flick that tries to be theatrically spectacular, but comes across as ridiculous and often even embarrassing (the skateboarding boy brings to mind the worst of 90s clichés). Dwayne Johnson stares and tries in vain to convince himself that he's playing Clint Eastwood, and getting through this collection of dull visual attractions, empty story and flat characters to the end credits is ultimately quite a chore. But it does have an advantage, an hour and a half after the screening ended, I remember nothing of Black Adam.

Dwayne Johnson is beginning to look like Steven Seagal, at least in action movies. This is unwatchable. Tarantino is right, the last two decades of cinema, crammed with colourful comic book adaptations, is a dark era. Films made to order, without their own identity, creative passion and without a shred of originality. Thank goodness for exceptions like James Gunn (well, okay, the last Avengers and its emotional spark was pretty OK too, the one-eyed king among the blind).
