Black Adam

Action Adventure Fantasy


 

Given powers 5000 years ago, Teth-Adam was imprisoned after causing mass destruction in his city. After being freed, he has to learn if he is a hero or a villain in modern times.

Black Adam is an entertaining mix of humour, action, and adventure. There's everything you'd expect from a comic adaptation in this film - heroes, villains, and unsuspecting humans looking for help. Where this production distinguishes itself from others is in the shades of grey, the in-between moments where characters learn about and teach each other without immediately defaulting to violence. Our leading man is magnetic, delivering lines in a deadpan way that will have you chuckling along as he figures out where he fits in the modern world. Tell him the man in black sent you.
