Shazam! Fury of the Gods

12A

The continuing adventures of teenager Billy Batson (Asher Angel) who we last saw in Shazam! (2019) being bestowed by wizard Djimon Hounsou with the power to transform into an adult superhero (Zachary Levi) by saying the word ‘SHAZAM’. Now, his fellow foster kids have the same ability to transform into ass-kicking alter-egos.This is good timing as a big battle is brewing with a vengeful trio of ancient female gods. Rachel Zegler, Lucy Liu and Helen Mirren play the Daughters of Atlas who are willing to destroy the world in order to reclaim magic stolen a long time ago. The stakes are greater than before. The spectacle is magnified. Plus the growing-pains jokes fly faster than you can say, well, ‘SHAZAM’.
