Black Adam Review
I was excited when i saw the trailers for the Black Adam movie. Probably one of the first to check it out on its premiere date (I am a sucker for blockbuster movies) and I hoped against all things that DC company will not let me down in their movie production as they have done in the past.
Well after the cinema session, needless to say I was impressed. Explosions, big fights and setups, catchy catchphrases and all, the movie kept all of the audience entertained and I would have almost given it a fair 9/10 in my books.
That was just until the blu-ray version came out (downloads). I saw CGI flaws that I ignored in the theatres maybe due to all the action i was taking in at once.I felt the plot was rushed, Doctor Fate, in particular, was weakened by the plot ( probably due to the CGI budget ) and some of the decisions made by the characters did not make sense.
Like how would you witness an all-powerful person brutally murder 100+ people, then by some chance get knocked out by a missile, and you decide to treat him like a hero and take him home to tend to his injury?
Well, the only part which excited me more, and probably lots of fans around the world, was the introduction of Henry Cavill as Superman again in the post-credit scene, and the foreshadowing of a face-off between Black Adam and Superman. That was worth screaming for.
My Final Review: I could say the movie was made for the theatres, because it definitely had that cinematic effect on the audience, but it lost its appeal on the small screens.
I'd rate it a 6/10. That is just my opinion by the way, what do you think about the movie?
