Zo is het nu de beurt aan DC's nieuwste project Black Adam. Of eigenlijk was het meer jarenlang het passieproject van Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson die uitvoerend producent is én de hoofdrol voor zijn rekening neemt.
De journalisten die na afloop de moeite namen om naar social media te reizen, lijken echt van de film te houden. Zo krijgt Johnson veel lof voor zijn performance van het personage dat op zijn lijf geschreven is.
De epische non-stop actie en het razend vlotte tempo worden verder gezien als de beste eigenschappen naast een uitstekende verhaalopbouw en het functioneel plaatsen van bouwstenen voor een groots universum.
Lees hieronder een aantal Tweets:
#BlackAdam is a game-changer!! This is the #DCComics movie I've been waiting for & it did not disappoint. @TheRock is electrifyingly brutal as Black Adam! This is what I wanted Black Adam to be. The action in the film is non-stop & seeing the #JSA on the big screen was a thrill! pic.twitter.com/NigTxsfmd7

DC's #BlackAdam ROCKS! Tons of action, characters you're instantly invested in & terrific pacing. Dwayne Johnson finds a great balance in being menacing & badass, but also empathetic. Especially loved Aldis Hodge's Hawkman & Pierce Brosnan's Doctor Fate. More JSA movies please! pic.twitter.com/YSCco9zYA3

Had to go through metal detectors for the Black Adam NY screening. Pity it's bad - no emotional depth, zero sense of peril for the main character and dull CGI battles. #BlackAdam pic.twitter.com/gUjxHy1oUO

.@TheRock is terrific in #BlackAdam, which includes a hearty amount of real world touchstones (most affecting is it reinforces the need for heroes in bleak times). Director Juame Collet-Serra lays out building blocks for a larger, grand universe. Action is lively & BIG in scale. pic.twitter.com/pDBkSHRDrI

Black Adam is everything that I hoped it would be and more. A Snyder-esque antihero spectacle that delivers big action and impressive set pieces. Dwayne Johnson transforms into Black Adam, a role that he was born to play. Centineo & Swindell are so damn fun to watch. #BlackAdam pic.twitter.com/V1tY0liyph

#BlackAdam is a solid crowd-pleaser. Lots of spectacle and humor while also actually embracing the DCEU and setting up something very exciting for its future. It doesn't pull many surprises and feels very familiar at times, but it's definitely enjoyable popcorn entertainment. pic.twitter.com/grh2W3BMvM

#BlackAdam is a role @TheRock just thrives in. He's the ultimate bad-ass as Teth-Adam and the thought of him crossing over with other heroes and villains after this one is awesome. pic.twitter.com/lfaEBPyhG2

I have seen #BlackAdam! This was one of my most anticipated films of the year, and it did not disappoint. The action sequences were incredible, especially the ones with the JSA. The Rock crushes it as Black Adam. The film's end left me with high hopes for the future of the DCEU. pic.twitter.com/vd0Zy35lWT

#BlackAdam struggles to find its footing at first but once the Justice Society enters it becomes more fun to watch. Dwayne Johnson's anti-hero presents an intriguing new dynamic to the DCEU. Solid visual effects. Weak villain. Post-credits scene got the biggest reaction of all. pic.twitter.com/qbVmWkYLjv
