#BlackAdam is a MASSIVE DC outing. The action is brutal, and Dwayne Johnson delivers on his promise of shifting the DCEU in a different direction. The story itself is up and down, as certain scenes don’t pack the intended punch… Although there are moments that fans will LOVE. pic.twitter.com/0TTwyiC2fS

“‘Black Adam’ It’s an amazing product from DC. The action is brutal and Dwayne Johnson delivers on the promise to take the DCEU down a different path. The story itself has its ups and downs and certain scenes don’t work as they should… But there are several moments that fans will love.”
BOOM! #BlackAdam @TheRock delivers us one of the most ADRENALINE FUELLED adventures of the year! This 300 style ACTION SPECTACLE feels like a hit for DC. Some side characters & a shaky script prevent this from changing the hierarchy of the DCEU. Pierce Brosnan is a scene stealer! pic.twitter.com/TWFUpBcEKs

“‘Black Adam’ delivers one of the most ADRENALINE-FULL adventures of the year! This style ACTION SHOW ‘300′ should be a hit for DC. A few secondary characters and a shaky script prevent this from changing the DCEU’s hierarchy. Pierce Brosnan steals dinner”.
#BlackAdam is the most fun I’ve had watching a DC film in theaters since BvS. The film is huge in scale, epic & that post credits Scene which we all know what it is got the biggest cheer since Endgame imo. The JSA are all fantastic & the film sets up a bright DCEU future. Love It pic.twitter.com/bbsi8tJPgH

#BlackAdam electrifies the millions & millions of DC fans! @TheRock lays the smackdown while adding empathy that makes the character one of the DCEU’s most intriguing anti-heroes. A fast paced, action packed ride that delivers on its promise of spectacle & boy, that mid-credit. pic.twitter.com/3yCTr2QlM3

#BlackAdam is built on some epic, non-stop action. It made me want a sequel with a smoother story immediately.
When it moves, it’s a straight shot of adrenaline. The characters are dope, especially Teth-Adam and Doctor Fate. It’s a bad-ass film. pic.twitter.com/XeMFgcB3OG

“‘Black Adam’ is built on epic, unstoppable action. It made me want a sequel with a quieter story right away. When it moves, it’s a direct injection of adrenaline. The characters are great. Especially Teth-Adam and Doctor Doom. It’s an incredible film.”
According to Box Office Prothe film should earn between $55 – 70 million in the first opening weekend in the US and Canada.
The portal mentions that one of the positive points is that there is great expectation for Johnson’s debut in superhero comic book adaptations.
The value is similar to the opening of ‘Aquaman’which surpassed $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
Remembering that the film will be released on the day october 20 at the movies.
Are you in anticipation?
Nearly 5,000 years after he was bestowed with the omnipotent powers of the Egyptian gods – and just as quickly arrested – Black Adam (Dwayne Johnson) is released from his earthly tomb, ready to unleash his unique form of justice on the modern world.
The film will also introduce the members of the Justice Society: Doctor Fate (Pierce Brosnan), Black Hawk (Aldis Hodge), Atom Crusher (Noah Centineo) and Cyclone (Quintessa Swindell).
Directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (‘Águas Rasas’), the feature will take place in the same universe as ‘Shazam!‘.
