Shazam!

Technically the first superhero named Captain Marvel but kept from naming him that due to a legal issue with Marvel, Shazam! is the seventh installment in the DC Extended Universe. It tells the origin story of abandoned teenager Billy Batson who is given god like powers by an ancient wizard to fight the personifications of the Seven Deadly Sins and their chosen champion, Dr. Sivana. This is by far the best film in the DCEU, even beating out Wonder Woman, and definitely one of the most fun superhero ever made. Asher Angel as Billy and Zachary Levi as the adult superhero persona are perfect in their roles, along with the rest of the cast all having great performances. A lot of the comedy is on point, and helps make it such a fresh spin on the genre whenever they focus on Shazam doing odd things to impress people before committing to fully helping people. The action scenes and effects are done really well, even if the design of the Deadly Sins are a little generic. Unlike the first few Extended Universe films, Shazam! isn't afraid to be lighthearted, fun, comedic, and self aware of what kind of film it is. What really works is just how accurate the film is to the comics, such as the costume and even sillier aspects like the appearance of of the Rock of Eternity. There are some negatives in Shazam!, the most obvious being that whenever the ancient wizard finds someone to test whether they're worthy, he never erases their memory of the event. Over all: 100%
