Did Shazam 2 run over your dog or something?

No kidding. This article reads like the author has an inexplicable personal vendetta. Just downright spiteful.
As much as I love the ‘Captain America’ series, I always think Chris Evans is having the most fun when he pops up in other characters’ movies. This, as Loki in ‘Thor 2' and ‘Endgame’; he’s really good at tweaking the good guy image of Cap a little.
They have so much fun hating fun. Which they then have to hate.
I don’t even think the response has been particularly cruel to the movie, let alone to Zegler herself. I’ve seen a few people criticize her acting in the movie, which feels misplaced because none of the villains were really good in it, and I’ve seen all of them act well in the past (Zegler is quite good in West Side…
Not only do people demonstrably hate fun, but they love to hate fun. It’s practically a national pastime these days

She and Dwayne can hash out how actually it’s the audiences who are wrong over a bottle of Teramana.
It certainly was quite a bold choice to devote one of the post-credits scenes to directly saying to the audience “You didn’t think we were actually going to follow up on that cool story we teased at the end of the first movie, did you? Idiots.”
Fun movies are applauded and adored all the time, but critical consensus suggests Shazam! Fury Of The Gods is not one of them.
My friend took her 10 year old to see it on Friday night. He said it was good but he liked the first one better. She said at least it moved and wasn’t boring.
I liked it. It just felt like the script could have used another pass. I felt like some beats took too long to set up, and it felt like there were too many MacGuffins. I’m sure at least some of that was a result of trying to give all six of the Shazams something to do (and yet, Mary Marvel really ends up with…
