Shazam is easily an improvement over Aquaman, but it fails to find its footing and falls flat on its face.
The story line was weak, as it lacked heart, depth, and wit. The pacing was super bad as well, as I always wondered when something good was going to happen.
The acting was disappointing, mainly by Mark Strong and Zachary Levi. Mark Strong should have had a different role in the DCEU as he was wasted. The characterization was weak as well.
The action scenes and musical score were lackluster, and they managed to make Captain Marvel's action scenes and score look incredible.
The humor was good, but sometimes it felt out of place. The visual effects were awesome also.
Overall, while featuring great humor and some awesome visual effects, Shazam suffered from its weak story line, horrific pacing, lackluster action scenes, and a poor musical score, and adds another disappointing installment in the DCEU.
Out of 4 stars I would give it...
