Shazam! doesn’t reinvent the superhero movie, but it’s an undeniably fun time that left me wanting more big-screen adventures with these charming characters.

Roger Ebert

While 'Shazam!' is goofier (and darker) than it may look, you'll wish its superhero came with a little more spark.

Shazam! feels blessedly old-fashioned, which isn’t to say it’s perfect — or even very good.

The A.V. Club

The original Shazam! was a rare win for the DCU.

IMDb

Technically a 6.5, but definitely not anything to be thrilled about, as there isn't much novelty.

Rotten Tomatoes

"Shazam! is easily one of the most fun superhero movies ever made; even after the euphoric Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, that's still a low bar to clear, but it's worth celebrating all the same." - David Ehrlich, IndieWire

Rotten Tomatoes

Every member of the cast gives a strong performance, but Zachary Levi steals the show. His whimsical attitude, reckless personality, and rich facial expressions are guaranteed to entertain you for most of the runtime.

IMDb

It probably comes as no surprise that the release of this picture around the same time as 'Captain Marvel' would confuse comic book fans.
