Instead of that moment towards the end of the second act happening in a natural way like say in _Infinity War_ where Dr. Strange stops Thanos from killing Tony and trades Tony’s life for the Time Stone, here it's just contrived and happens cause it needs to happen. The movie wasn't BAD it was good fun, but it did just feel like "okay, so Inciting moment, check Hook check, First Plot Point check, Midpoint (2nd plot point), check, Third plot point check, Climax, check, Climactic Moment, check, Resolution, check."

[@yevki7606]

Couple thing I want to point out: 1. In the comics, Black Adam has the wisdom of Zehuti (I might be misspelling that) which gives him any relevant information whenever he needs it. I imagine this is how Adam was able to speak English. 2. If Adam said Shazam as soon as he got out of the capsule thing, he would likely either destroy the underwater base or create a hole in the base that would let water in and flood it.

[@haddy106]

Yeah his powers are the same as shazams but he takes the power from a different pantheon of gods, so his abilities have different limits and details Additionally, saying shazam would transform him into the original version of himself who is over 5000 years old

[@thedeathskeleton4957]

Also for 2. He did try to get the mouth thing off. It wasn't until he was in the water that it released tho. Presumably because it thought Adam was unconscious in the water like he was supposed to be, or he just managed to figure out how to take it off.

[@darthtleilaxu4021]

You are correct. He can learn any language very quickly.

[@Schmidtelpunkt]

@@thedeathskeleton4957 "Presumably because it thought Adam was unconscious in the water like he was supposed to be, or he just managed to figure out how to take it off." Or perhaps nobody came up with a good reason but it just was required for the movie to go on? There are movies where screenwriters labor for ages to craft scenes.

I enjoyed the movie but it says more about: 1. Lack of quality movies in general let alone from DC 2. Anti heroes are cool as we don't live in a fairy tail and it was trying to portray that Black Adam will do what it takes for the greater good. 2. Branding and passion from Dwane Johnson, the man did his best effort and was one of his biggest goals. I only was disappointed due to how much better the movie could have been.
