In ‘Shazam!’, we see how a 14-year-old boy powers in the provinces that made him older looking. Thus emerged he was to become one of the few superheroes who is also genuinely happy with his powers. “This is a very funny, upbeat film, which is both reminiscent of ‘Home Alone’ as to the Tom Hanks movie ‘Big’. Not what we of DC are used to, but it is a welcome change.”
In the starring role, we see Zachary Levi as the ‘adult version’ of the boy in question, decked out with a very striking heldenkostuum, complete with luminous lightning.
‘Shazam!’ is released on 3 april in the Belgian screens.
