My Light and Shadow Diary, 5.

Little is known about this superhero. However, I still chose the IMAX theater with a sense of ceremony, but like his other sister Captain Marvel, it is not worth watching IMAX. Because that fight scene is really powerless to complain! Especially the last Ferris wheel was deliberately pulled down by the villain, and there were only two people on it! Two people! There is Shazam Fei in the sky with a grin, and I instantly went to the theater of Aamir Khan, the savior of the Indian movie. If it is said that Marvel's "Captain Marvel" is a trailer that foreshadows the important characters in front of Avengers 4, I can still accept it. But not Shazam! All in all, it's a children's movie. Laughter is also a routine for children. If the two companies make films like this again, they will lose many, many fans! I hope it doesn't happen that day!

    I can be sure this must be a sand sculpture! In fact, DC can take a different approach to the dark cult style. You don't have to always compete with Marvel. Maybe it can also become a classic. ps: Just after reading it, my judgment is correct, it really is a sand sculpture. Samsung, but I can't hold it, I like it! DC is smarter than Marvel this time, zz can be correct, the first Asian superhero

    Let me start by saying that different heroes and directors of dc have different styles, and they didn't imitate anything. Batman the Joker, you can't make him fun, and like Shazam, you can't make him dark. Okay, it started to explode below. While laughing and screaming throughout (the field), this is probably the dc movie that I shed the most tears. The look and feel surpasses "Aquaman", and I like its core very much. No wonder North American film critics compare "Home Alone" to him. Freddy is better shaped than Billy. Although the plot is weak, but it conveys the theme of family affection and love, which completely conceals this shortcoming, and it also keeps stuffing eggs, laughter and stalking in it. Although I knew that the Shazam family would be on the stage, they were still incomparably excited, and the audience clapped for no less than 10s. The villain is facialized, but it can also be the opposite of Billy's growth, and it can be considered qualified to complete the task. The little guys have become an unexpected surprise. In the absence of many scenes, each character is shaped very three-dimensional, and all of them are cute. In short, "Shazam" is a super British movie full of sincere core. Although it has shortcomings, its flaws are not concealed.

Shazam! quotes

  • Freddy Freeman: Are you more powerful than a locomotive?

    Shazam: What's a locomotive?

  • Billy Batson: Hi. Um... I was supposed to get off at 30th.

    The Wizard: Billy Batson.

    Billy Batson: How'd you know my name?

    The Wizard: I am the last of the Council of Wizards. Keeper of the Rock of Eternity.

    Billy Batson: Oh... You're... that guy. Hey, listen, I don't have any money.

    The Wizard: Do not patronize me, boy!

    [the Wizard strikes the ground with his staff]

    The Wizard: You are standing in the source of all magic. The Rock of Eternity. Seven thrones of seven wizards. But long ago, we chose a champion. And we chose recklessly. He used his power for revenge, releasing the Seven Deadly Sins into your world. Millions of lives were lost. Entire civilizations erased from existence.

    [the Wizard walks around Billy]

    The Wizard: That is why I vowed never to pass on my magic until I find one truly good person. Strong in spirit, pure in heart.

    Billy Batson: Look, man, maybe this is magic, and, I don't know, but the people you're looking for, good, pure people, I'm not one of them. I-I don't know if anyone is, really.

    The Wizard: You, Billy Batson, are all I have. All the world has.

    [the Wizard strikes the ground with his staff in front of Billy]

    The Wizard: Lay your hands on my staff.

    Billy Batson: Gross.

    The Wizard: And say my name so my powers may flow through you. I open my heart to you, Billy Batson. And in so doing, choose you as champion.

    Billy Batson: Thanks.

    [the Wizard strikes the ground again]

    Billy Batson: Real sweet of you, mister, but I really gotta get going.

    The Wizard: My brothers and sisters were slain by the Sins. Their thrones lie empty! My magic must be passed on. Now...

    [the Wizard strikes the ground again]

    The Wizard: Speak my name!

    Billy Batson: I-I don't know your name, sir. We just met.

    The Wizard: My name is... Shazam.

    Billy Batson: [chuckles] Wait, for real?

    The Wizard: Say it!

    Billy Batson: Okay! Jeez.

    [Billy places his left hand on the staff while the Wizard holds it with both hands]

    Billy Batson: So just say it? Like... Shazam?

    [Billy is struck by lightning]

    The Wizard: Yes! Carry my name, and with it, you carry all my powers. The wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Atlas, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles, and the speed of Mercury.

    [Billy gets up, now as Shazam]

    Shazam: What happened to me? Why am... W-w-what did you do to me? What did you do to my voice?

    The Wizard: You have been transformed to your full potential, Billy Batson. With your heart, unlock your greatest power.

    [the Wizard hands Shazam his staff]

    The Wizard: The thrones of our brothers and sisters await.

    [the Wizard crumbles into dust, startling Shazam as he drops the staff and grabs his backpack]

    Shazam: Get me out of here!
