Black Adam | Rotten Tomatoes (original) (raw)

Larushka Ivan-Zadeh Metro Newspaper (UK) Even the rock-solid charisma of Dwayne Johnson rolls off a cliff with this noisy and disappointingly boring load of CGI-laden superhero tosh. A DCU fail. Dec 27, 2022 Full Review Richard Brody The New Yorker There’s something morally deadening and aesthetically depressing about the bottomless toy chest of C.G.I. being reduced to the toolbox of cinematic bureaucracy. Oct 28, 2022 Full Review Trace Sauveur Austin Chronicle Black Adam is mostly a movie made up of strictly baseline ideas, or the regurgitation of already existing ones. Rated: 1.5/5 Oct 27, 2022 Full Review Branyan Towe Loud and Clear Reviews Black Adam excels at being a popcorn film, one with stellar action and visuals Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 29, 2024 Full Review Brittany Patrice Witherspoon Pop Culture Reviews There’s some fun to be had, but it is mediocre at best. Rated: 2/5 Jul 25, 2024 Full Review Swara Salih The Nerds of Color While Black Adam‘s scattered script doesn’t do its characters and story full justice, the characters, visuals, and hilarious yet heartfelt moments ensure that you’ll still have a fun time.

Emmanuel The Rock is just the Rock Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review ERIC S I DISLIKED THE FACT A DAD WHO LOST A SON WOULD FEEL HATRED AND ARROGANCE KNOWING HIS SON WOULDN'T WANT HIM LIKE THAT. ALSO, AT THE END, (SPOILER ALERT) WHY HAVE SUPERMAN INSTEAD OF THE ONE WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ARCH ENEMY, SHAZAM, SHOW UP? OTHER THAN THESE ISSUES, IT WAS A DECENT MOVIE. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/24 Full Review Michael I don't even know where to begin. I honestly didn't like anything about this movie. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/20/24 Full Review Matthew This movie had so much potential but was written so poorly. why beat up the good guy? put him in jail and then beg for his help at the end. great actors. good special effects. could have been a great movie. the writing sucked Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/04/23 Full Review Craig A little darker than Shazam. overall a pretty decent movie. the action was well executed. the acting was ok. Dwayne does well as Adam. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/15/23 Full Review Tyrone it's was solid dr fate was perfect Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
