Dwayne Johnson stars as the titular character ‘Black Adam’ a DC Comics character. After being empowered with the almighty abilities of the Egyptian gods to then be imprisoned for 5,000 years, Black Adam is freed from his Earthly tomb, ready to exact his own form of justice on the modern world.
Like ‘Shazam’ a few years ago, this is another DC character that I am unfamiliar with. However, the film initially held my interest because of Dwayne Johnson; he’s an enjoyable actor and seems like a genuinely delightful person. Therefore, I will always support him.
But, furthermore, ‘Black Adam’ looks fantastic. It’s great to see Johnson finally join the comic book genre and portray an antihero-esque character. Considering his previous performances’, it looks like he could fit into this role very comfortably and make this a fun and enjoyable film.
‘Black Adam’ wasn’t a character I had heard of but, just like ‘Shazam’, I am definitely interested in this film. Plus, it’s great to see Dwayne Johnson join the comic book film genre and play a unique character in terms of where his morals lie.
