Shazam

4 stars

01 Dec 2020

Today is the 1st of December 2020 which is also means the first day of advent and I watched a film on sky cinema and that film was called Shazam which is a DC movie. I am doing a Christmas challenge and that challenge is to try and watch new movies up until the 24th of December which is Christmas eve. The question is will I achieve my Christmas challenge or will I not that is my question to all of my readers that will read my review today and other film reviews. Shazam is about a young 14 year old boy who after being abandoned at a fair by the police and put into a foster care. The boy whose name is Billy Batson who is constantly searches for his mother. Until his life takes a huge turn when he inherits the superpowers from a powerful old wizard. I have seen this film before but it was only the end of it when a special guest comes to the school to have lunch with one of the boys whose name is Freddy Freeman but you will have to watch the film to find out which superhero it is because I will not give any spoils away on this film. I have watched Shazam again because the first time it was on I did not do a film review until the second time I saw this film. So this film is getting a four star rating which means I like it. It is only getting four stars because it was made by DC not Marvel and My favourite films are Marvel and Disney films not DC films. My second favourite films are romantic and Musical films. That is the end of my first film review tomorrow I am watching a film called The star and hope to write a review on that as well so see you tomorrow film club and thank you for having this film to review on. I can now say I have seen this film and wrote a review. The film was called Shazam which has the same actor who played the superhero and the main character Shazam. He is also in the film called Tangled he played the character Flynn Rider. The actor's name is Zachary Levi who is also in the film Thor: The Dark World he played the character Fandral.
