![]() ![]() Justice Society of America makes its first official and unforgivable debut While we may sometimes feel like this character is doing the same things for 2/3 of the movie, it doesn’t change the fact that he is so awesome and his relationship with JSA is perfect. The Rock’s version of Black Adam works so well because we all know he’s not entirely evil, and just because he’s been asleep for 5,000 years doesn’t necessarily mean he knows what he’s doing. While it may be different for Black Adam, he is much more open to being good to people and freeing them from the possibility of being slaves, rather than punishing them. As much as he wants to do that, she’s tries to explain to him why Kahndaq needs a protector they can rely on, who is both just and merciful. She’s the main reason Adam doesn’t kill every person he thinks is evil. There is also the story arc of Adrianna Tomaz ( Sarah Shahi), who frees Black Adam from his prison. This was a very surprising decision for me because I thought the JSA would fight it out until the end of the film, until Sabbac’s appearance in the third act, but this was not the case at all, and it surprised me. This Black Adam is not yet fully aware of his future, but when he has to face the truth that only he is responsible for his fate and can change how people see him, he decides not to be a villain. Black Adam felt like he was from the Dark Age comic series or even the Injustice 2 game. Watching the film, I saw a very similar Black Adam to the one in the Black Adam comics. This reflects very well his transformation from the villain he was in the pages of history to an anti-hero who doesn’t have to be so impulsive to get what he wants. After Black Adam is released from his prison, we see him transform from an angry out-of-control man into a slightly more human version of his past self. Without going into major spoilers, Black Adam’s origin story in this film is very well written. ![]() Adam killed almost all of them, leaving only Shazam the wizard alive, who imprisoned Adam. The wizards wanted to take the powers from Adam since they were used for evil purposes. This is just the beginning of Black Adam’s story, with his powers born out of rage, loss, and sorrow from losing his family. He used them to kill King Ahk-Ton and all who were with him, avenging his son. Hurut transferred his powers to his father Teth-Adam, saving him from mortal wounds, and thus Adam now had the powers of Shazam. Later, the king attacked Hurut’s family, killing his mother, in revenge for all those he had saved from Ahk-Ton’s tyranny. As he neared death, he was rescued by the wizard Shazam ( Djimon Hounsou), gaining S.H.A.Z.A.M. His son Hurut ( Jalon Christian) rebelled against the tyrannical King Ahk-Ton ( Marwan Kenzari) and was punished for it. In the movie, Black Adam ( Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) and his family were slaves in Kahndaq. Whenever he was asked about the film The Rock would say “The hierarchy of power in the DC universe is about to change.” But is this true? Has the DC hierarchy really changed? Is it for the better or for the worse? How the hell did this movie get made after fifteen years? I will attempt to answer all of these questions, and perhaps a few more, in my Black Adamreview. This movie had been in the works since 2007 and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson never stopped fighting for Black Adam to appear on a movie screen.įifteen years later, we finally have a film with a $200 million budget and a great cast. Then Hamlet will know he can act.Black Adam is undeniably a great phenomenon in pop culture circles. He’ll watch Claudius’s reaction to see if he seems guilty. He then hatches a plan: he’ll have the actors stage a play with a plot similar to the king’s murder. Watching the lead actor deliver a compelling monologue, Hamlet becomes sad that he, unlike the talented actor, can’t seem to summon any courage or passion when it comes to avenging his father’s death. Finally, some traveling players arrive and put on an impromptu performance. Quickly realizing that Polonius, Rosencrantz, and Guildenstern are all secretly spying on him, he mocks them without their knowledge. They hatch a plan to figure out what’s really going on: Polonius will send Ophelia to talk to the mad Hamlet and prove once and for all that he’s crazy with love. Polonius then tells Gertrude and Claudius that he thinks Hamlet’s behavior is due to his feelings for Ophelia. Voltemand tells Claudius that the King of Norway has put a stop to Prince Fortinbras’ threats, and Fortinbras has vowed not to attack Denmark. Polonius arrives with the ambassador Voltemand in tow, both bearing good news. Claudius and Gertrude are worried about Hamlet, who’s been acting crazy in court, so they dispatch Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to spy on him. ![]()
