Shazam! Ratings & Reviews
- Zokkiie17 mars 2026Honestly just a really easy watch. It’s got this playful, slightly goofy vibe that works in its favor, and it never feels weighed down by trying to be bigger or darker than it needs to be. The comedy hits more often than not, and the younger cast brings a lot of charm and energy to it. A few parts feel a bit generic and it doesn’t always stick the landing, but it’s got enough personality to make up for it. Fun, light, and easy to enjoy.

- Eric Bakke12 oktober 2024The superhero version of Big/13 Going On 30.
- Manuel Frangis26 mars 2025I just watched Shazam! and I give it 3 out of 5 stars. It is a fun superhero movie with a lot of heart, some solid laughs, and a different vibe than most other DC films. It tries to mix comedy, family drama, and action all in one package, and while it has some really good moments, it did not fully land for me the way I hoped it would. The story follows Billy Batson, a teenage kid who is suddenly chosen to become a superhero whenever he shouts the word “Shazam”. Once he transforms, he becomes an adult superhero with all sorts of powers, but on the inside, he is still just a fourteen-year-old kid. That setup is one of the best parts of the movie. It feels like a superhero version of Big and leans into that idea hard. Zachary Levi is great as Shazam. He brings a lot of energy and really sells the idea that he is just a kid in an adult body. He is goofy, excited, immature, and trying to figure it all out. His chemistry with Jack Dylan Grazer, who plays Freddy Freeman, is solid and they carry most of the fun parts of the movie. Their friendship is believable and the scenes of them testing out Shazam’s powers are easily some of the highlights. The movie has a lot of humor, and most of it works. There are plenty of jokes about superhero clichés, awkward teenage behavior, and the idea of suddenly being super powerful with no clue what you are doing. It does not take itself too seriously, and that makes it feel refreshing compared to some of the darker DC movies. But for me, the movie started to lose steam in the second half. The villain, played by Mark Strong, is just kind of okay. He is not terrible, but he feels very one note. His backstory is explained early on, and from there he is just kind of there to be the bad guy. His scenes are way more serious than everything else, and that tone shift feels a little off. The pacing also feels uneven. The first half is funny and light, but then it jumps into darker territory with creepy monsters and dramatic family moments that do not always feel like they belong in the same movie. It tries to balance so many different tones at once that some scenes feel out of place. The family stuff does work though. The foster family Billy ends up with is one of the best parts of the movie. Each member of the family gets a little moment to shine, and there is a real message about finding where you belong and opening up to people. That gives the movie some nice emotional beats even if they are mixed in with all the crazy superhero stuff. The visual effects are solid, the action scenes are fun, and the finale is big without going overboard. The final act has some surprises and adds to the overall theme of teamwork and family, which I thought was a nice way to close it out. I give Shazam! 3 out of 5 stars because it is good, not great. It has strong characters, good laughs, and some heart, but it does not fully come together in the way it could have. Overall Shazam! is a fun and different kind of superhero movie that is worth watching, even if it does not hit every note perfectly. I enjoyed it, just not as much as I hoped.
- Dominic Kresevich22 februari 2025Movie is AWESOME!!! it actually has a character from my favorite movie. (Grace Caroline Currey) but movie is EPIC. Watch it now!
- Chili4618 januari 2026Very good movie and definitely kid friendly.
- mickerdoo5 december 2025Enjoyed it. Better than expected from DC. Not Dark Knight trilorgy or Wonder Woman but fun enough. Levi is clutch. Strong is good, too.
- cykotic2473 januari 2026It’s cool
- M08Y23 oktober 2025Shazam is a fun and family friendly venture into the superhero genre. The kind of film a grandmother could watch on Christmas and follow. Shazam is many things, a dark, gritty and thought provoking movie is not one of them. What is actually is, a wholesome, light hearted and family friendly take on the genre. Theres no need to do any movie homework here, you can just put it on and enjoy it. The story is pretty flimsy and the characters pretty 2 dimensional, no new ground is broken but honestly it doesn't really do anything wrong either. I would rate it higher, but honestly the humour only worked for me once and I find the character of Shazam kind of annoying (I appreciate that is intentional). The audio and visuals are all fine. Some questionable CGI at times, but honestly never enough to pull you out of the film. The $100M budget was well utilized here.
- Phineas11 juli 2025This movie cooked way more than it should have. Legitimately might be the DCEU's best film, though that's not saying much.
- Streetter26 augusti 2025Kids movie to be sure. Strays from the real character from the comics, but extremely enjoyable!
- Nathan Magreta22 juli 2025It's not nearly as good as other's say it is, but this movie is still a whole lot of fun
