Shazam: The Fury of the Gods

Rating: 3 out of 5.

Okay, so from having a superpower and then having his family join him as superhero, Shazam is actually getting in this momentum of having a superhero life but as a teenager, Billie is not exactly on track. Because right now he is actually getting confused of what he really does, to top that, he wants his group to unite but how can he do that if everything he wanted is for his glory or what he only thinks was right.

This movie is directed by David F. Sandberg, starring Zachary Levi as Shazam and Asher Angel as Billy Batson, following up the first movie of the same title, Shazam, the second installment has been released last March 2023. Giving us an other dose of Shazamily and another story to cling on with the DC Universe.

Before we even go further, let me just keep a disclaimer like the usual. Click only when you’re ready for some spoilers.

Justice League: Snyder’s Cut (A Moview)

We all have seen the 2017 version of the Justice League which was directed by Joss Whedon (the director of The Avengers). The 2017 version was originally credited to Zack Snyder but was forced to step out of the project because of personal reasons.

Just an early disclaimer: for those who haven’t watch both versions (2017 and Zack’s) please watch it first. Zack Snyder’s version is available in HBO Max and 2017 version is available in Netflix.

With that said, Joss had to do some fixing and he needs to finish what Zack had started and that brought us the said 2017 Justice League where Batman was able to put together the team that consists Wonder Woman, The Flash, Aquaman, Cyborg and the newly resurrected Superman. But to all of the DC Fans, we were not THAT happy of the movie, you wanna know why? Because the movie was like fast forwarded without any substance and basically, the DC Extended Universe was ignored and only fragments from comics were included. Okay, that’s where fans hoped that there will be somehow ‘other’ version of the movie. Fans made it possible by bombarding social media with the campaign of having Snyder’s Cut of the Justice League. There was even a ‘Snyder Cut’ website made just to support this campaign. And then finally Warner Bros. announced on HBO Max the whole Snyder Cut last 2020. The campaign which was led for years has finally paid off!

And just recently, 18th of March 2021, the 242 minutes-long Snyder’s Cut of Justice League is released.

I’m not gonna go around the bush anymore, I will straight tell you the whole verdict and comparison, right here, right now!

Wonder Woman 1984: A Moview

Alright, so I realized, since the pandemic happened, I haven’t been in a movie theatre for a very long time which means, I have missed so many movies to watch and I regret all of those moment although I won’t jeopardize my health and the major budgeting that I am doing right now to be able to live because of the tourism industry (where I’m working) suddenly fell but I believe it will soon rise.

Anyway, enough with the drama, after almost 11 months of not being able to go to the cinema houses, I was determined to go out and be in it for this one particular movie and I’m talking about “Wonder Woman 1984” which premiered last Dec 17. You all know how I love comic superheroes especially their movie adaptation and we both know that it’s obvious how much I adore Wonder Woman, well, I call myself Wonder Roanne for a reason…

After few mishaps with regards the release dates, they finally release it December. This movie is considered as the sequel of the first Wonder Woman movie directed by Patty Jenkins in 2017 which was about how Wonder Woman finally discovered the other world…the world where man are the superiors. Wonder Woman is actually focused on how Diana discovered that mankind is just never easy to define, too many choices and opinion, this resembles the world we are living now, it’s just that, comics have superheroes to keep the peace in every corner of the imaginary world.

So let’s begin the movie review because of course, as a DC Comics fan, I have a lot things to say about this latest entry for my most favourite DC Superhero, second is The Flash, BTW. 🙂

Same as what I always remind my readers, I may have to tell some slight spoilers in this review so for those who haven’t watch the movie yet, stop right here and watch it. Come back when you already laid your eyes on it.
