AJ being SUPER happy at the start was a spoiler

Alex and OJ always look like the two parent chaperones on the field trip when Joe is all happy and goofy😂

The whole movie should have been set in ancient Kahndaq, with Black Adam/Teth-Adam's actual origin, ending with The Wizards banishing him.

Loved how they portrayed Haekman and Dr fate. Made us OG comic book readers happy to see them done justice. Action was dope too. Definitely not a great story but fun as hell movie

"I went in there with high expectations." "I dunno why, you saw the trailers." OJ is a savage sometimes.

Alex's look of disgust at Joe's happiness is priceless

Its one of those films where a lot happens and none of it really matters.

Calling Dr. Fate a “dollar store Dr. Strange” is mind blowing smh

Alex’s face was the embodiment of “I’m not mad, just disappointed.”

First 5 seconds of seeing Joe I already knew what the spoiler was before he said a single word lmao.

I saw this film yesterday with my father. I also went in with low expectations and ended up liking the film a lot more than I thought I was going to. The post credit scene was boss. Lol

Is Alex talking at 1000 words per minute because he's anxious that Joe is going to interrupt him?

Alex’s facial expressions told me enough in the first minute lmao.

Seeing Joe so excited and disappointed at the same is heartbreaking lol, he wanted this to succeed so much!

Sabbac isnt the main villan, the justice society is. Without fully understanding the situation or even collateral damage they start fighting. No talking or even mentioning to leave the highly populated areas, just bidness. After countless homes cars and monuments are destroyed do they even attempt peace talks! Every thing is a nail to a hammer, hawkman even says that he and fate are the hammer! Best part to me is the mission accomplished bit hawkman say to dr fate. Maybe im looking into this too much but that’s exactly what bush has flying on their banners for the iraq war… it seems like justice society is a metaphor for the us govt being a global peace force that doesn’t attempt peace talks at all. Loved this movie even with its cheesey bits. That superman ending was a huge let down now knowing cavill won’t be returning.

seen it, loved it, critics cry for no reason, it was so entertaining, audience score seems I'm in the majority

Seeing Joe go holy shit while I see Alex stoned faced looking like Red from the 70’s show told me everything and it’s hilarious lmao

I love how he just opens so happy and excited and the other two are just sulking looking like they hate it lol.

just saw the movie, it was a good time. action-packed and a good start for black adam joining the dceu

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson wanted a rated R film... can you all imagine how much better this would have been rated R? Far more impactful scenes, far better dialogue, and far better exposition.

Man, Joe is so overwhelmed with joy and giddyness he is even panting with glee. It's heartwarming. :)

@2:35 Alexs face at Joe. "are you seriously watching this again?" LOL

I love how when that certain character is dying Hackman decides to run up the stairs instead of flying

I didn't really care about Black Adam going into the movie I really cared about Dr.fate and he really didn't disappoint

I really enjoyed this film personally. Is it like groundbreaking or anything? Nah. Is it fun? YES YES IT IS

DC has the actors; they just need better writers.

It appears that Johnson’s only preparation for this role was to train and condition non stop. Of course he didn’t try an accent he cared more about looking good in the suit. Which begs to question how long he will be able to keep that physique up for the future as he really is near the end of sustaining this

I feel like I’m the only one who still enjoys movies these days 😢

I had a damn good time with this movie. It felt like a DC animated movie brought to life. Needed a little bit more story, but the action was so damn badass and entertaining... and the movie was 90% action lol

Alex looks like he regrets Life Choices. Someone give the poor guy a hug!

This was the first movie that made me leave the cinema. Not even rise of skywalker did that to me what this movie did. If not for this ****** kid, "Atom Smasher", pointless "windy hero" and this horrible zombie fight this movie would be like 6/10 Im never going to cinama for DC movie. never again. If i died durning screening on my tombstone there would be written "died of cringe"

I don’t know what more you could have needed with this! I loved the movie 🍿!!!! It was amazing!!!!

Just as predicted. Black Adam is one of the movies of this year, I was truly whelmed by the performances, all the actors did a job.

I feel like OJ and Alex don't like anything anymore. I almost never hear them say anything positive.

You nailed this review. Was thinking the same thing about the kid on scateboard rallying scene and general 90s vibe.

Dam it, I'll watch when I wake up

I'm kinda concerned about Alex, he's not had a happy face since Elden Ring back in February, hope he's doing OK

Im not sure why they always say its been CGI too much, what do you expect, its a superhero movie.

It feels like a movie from the 90s remade with today's visuals. And I love it.

Never support bad writing or bad acting, we all know the spoiler.

I cried when I saw that post credit scene and believe me, I thought of Angry Joe immediately thinking how he would feel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

This movie is basically The Rock fan boys/girls against people who wanted a good film and not a typical Rock movie 🤣

Love the review, Joe. Really good. One critique I do have tho is at 11:49 That blatant cutoff on Alex was just kind of jarring. I genuinely thought you were doing a bit where you were just pretending to cut him off so abruptly, say you were jk and let him finish his thought but it wasn’t that at all.

I love how the writer was on two of the worst sequels of those series

Alex is right, what's the point of getting excited for the setup if the level of writing is going to be mediocre at best? I'd rather have them cancel these projects over ruining legendary characters any further.

critics gave it a low score on rotten tomatoes but the audience score is 90+% says it all for me.

I really enjoyed the film. Prettt much embodied what I thought it would. The villain could have been better but I have no real complaints. I’m excited to see what DC does from here

Vargas, you should combine the scores of y'all 3 for the final verdict. The way you do it after asking them what do they think it feels insulting sometimes. Take them into consideration brother. Love you and your crew bro.

I’m sorry when he called Alex, Adam Smasher my mind went right to cyberpunk 2077

Critics 43%, Audience 90%. Ryan Kinel: "if this film came out with Marvel Studios in its logo, the critics would be the one at 90%". The shills be shilling on defence.

Alex: whoever’s in charge of venom 2, you suck Andy Serkis: I suck?

It was good, it's not going to reshape the way super hero movies are done but it was way better than Wonder Woman 84. Happy for Joe knowing his previous predictions.

take a shot every time Dr Fate takes off his helmet for no reason, and you'll be drunk enough to somewhat enjoy this movie

Hey guys - great review, thanks for motivating me to see this, as I really enjoyed it! I have to make a small note though - the song "Paint It Black" by The Rolling Stones used at that action scene early on was not slowed down by any measure...it was definitely played at the normal speed during the scene. As such I'm confused by that point of criticism, excepting that the scene samples the verses mostly - which are performed (as intended) at a slower tempo; maybe that caused your confusion?

I went in wanting just for a fun film. I had a good time. 7 out of 10 is good enough for me. I don't need every super hero movie to be this ground breaking, ceiling shattering, think piece about deeper meaning and our current society. I want to see superpowered beings fight each other like Gods as normal people watch on and I got that. No political messaging, no woke nonsense, no race/gender/religion swap, just good old fun. I'm happy.

I really enjoyed Black Adam. It met my expectations as just a badass superhero film. I never expected it to be some masterpiece of writing.

I'm a long time viewer who has recently returned to watching your videos from a long hiatus. I've got to tell you, in this video, as well as a few other recent ones (BF 2042, COD Vanguard, Saints Row), Alex nails it with every criticism he has and knows what it's going to take to get this swill we call entertainment back up to snuff.

So Falcon, Dr Strange, Ant-Man, Storm go to Wakanda to stop The Rock from killing a gang that has taken over his country. Why?

Was really weird seeing Black Adam doing catchphrases, jokes and smiling. Guess it was waaay too much to ask for Dwayne to play an actual villain and just HAD to play the hero. Doesn't even lead his people, wtf?? 23:26 That scene with the bike "jet" is exactly as shown in the movie, they just editted to make it looks like he rams it and it blows up however what happened was he jumped on it, flung guy forward ahead then rammed the jet into that guy while flying through explosion

Alex’s face says it all in the first 2 seconds 😂😂

Alex is raw with his reviews and I like it

The best part of the movie was that it was simply a super hero movie and that's why I loved it! I feel since end game everything else doesn't feel like that anymore. Everything is so political or hold some type of agenda. This was simply good guy rising to the top vs bad guy, the end and I loved it because we steered so far from that!

Thank God for Alex. He's the perfect foil for Joe. OJ is a great middle ground guy. It's absolutely hilarious when Alex is saying 5 and Joe is throwing his hands up in the air. Epic moment! thanks guys for great entertainment.

I love your content, thanks for always being true to who you are and giving honest reviews!

I suddenly realized after watching this movie that Dwayne Johnson is the biggest movie star in the world, yet every movie he has ever starred in is a C+ at best for me.

This movie feels like patches of footages from every comicbook movie/TV show ever made being stitched together to create a fascinating mess, possibly the most generic, run-of-the-mill DC movie that checklists all the cliche tropes. It's also insane the audiences are willing to watch the same old tired materials over and over again and still give it a 90% RT score, Nickelback-style.

Sounds like a Dwayne Johnson movie to me

Hawkman was so badass in this movie. I hope they do a Justice League with Hawkgirl and John Stewart Green Lantern

The AngryJoeShow is the first review I go to after every movie I see. Keep up the good work guys.

I could swear the "rendition" you keep mentioning of "paint it black" is the real version.

The cinematography and the music put into some of the scenes were perfect, I personally loved the movie , when Black Adam is first brought out in the movie WOW that entire scene is Bad Ass. Dr Fate went out like a G and Mr.Brosnan did perfect playing his character. This movie was so much fun i loved it and had a great time

Alex’s reaction to Joe at 30:20 has me cracking up lmao

The movie isn't bad. It's not good. It's mediocre. It's also fun :)

Dollar Store Doctor Strange? Put some respect on Doctor Fate’s name, who debuted 20+ years before Doctor Strange in the comics smh

This guy never looks angry. Look at the joy on his face

I respect you not pumping up the rating and being logical with your review and not allowing your emotion to get in the way.

Black Adam was certainly one of the movies of all time.

It didn't seem to me that Paint It Black was slowed down in the movie. I watched it on HBO Max though. Maybe they fixed it.

This movie felt like they filmed a 6 episode miniseries and then cut all that content into a movie.

It has an 89% on rotten tomatoes from the fans so it's probably going to be really successful at the box office.

It's weird, I find alot of comfort and nostalgia from watching the AngryJoeShow. I guess it's from watching you for 10 years now, I always seem to feel more relaxed than usual watching/listening to your content. Thanks Joe and thanks to OJ and Alex!

I just like the action scenes they are clean

Interesting take, a father trying to live up to his son's legacy, usually its the other way around.

Always solid opinions, but I love the movie. So glad I wanted to see it. Good to hear people wanted more and what not but what we got was awesome and I love the direction they went into. There’s plenty of super hero movies that need a deeper story and movie, I don’t really need Black Adam to grab my attention and make me cry but it still did have moments where you could connect with the characters in the movie. It’s so weird that people actually don’t like this movie or expected something else after watching the trailer. That’s why they have the trailers a hint of what to go to the movie for.

Joe you should watch it 4 times as promised 😄

Alex's face tells all. Mute audio and just watch the faces 😆.

“Dollar store Dr. Strange is a bold (and bad) opinion to have since Dr fate existed first and strange is a blatant copy.

I will give the film this, I really like how they show the peoples connection/reaction to their hero. One of my big issues with modern superhero movies is its all about the heroes and not the people they are meant to save. I love that corney Reeves Superman, Raimi Spider-Man style where they citizens and the city are a basically their own characters in the movie. And it's a nice twist on things to see them celebrate his brutality on the people who have oppressed them.

everytime joe starts talking, I immediately go to Alex's face to see how bad it's going to be. It never fails.

"He kills people" "And he is a hero in this film...... No joe, he isn't........

I screamed so loud at the end, I’m so glad that one thing happened in the after credits

The way Joe said “scoob” fucking killed me Dying of laughter 😂😂😂

I think that the Rock had to make concessions to get the film made. This project was greenlit during the old regime of WB. I'm hoping this movie does well enough to give the Rock another crack at the character under the new leadership and James Gunn.

Ignore the critics, Alex, OJ, and Joe. The movie was fun as hell. I enjoyed Black Adam immensely! I tried listening to this review but couldn't make it 7 minutes in. These guys forgot movies are allowed to be fun.

The fans aren't going to like it? It currently has a 90% audience score. They could of stood with the people but they chose the evil critics. I totally enjoyed the move, thought it was fun. Is it perfect? No, but it is way better than what critics are giving it. Its a superhero action film with the Rock, its not Shawkshank Redemption. For me its a 7.5 and is better than most of the slop Marvel has put out recently. In the post Covid times I would put this as my thrid best live Comic book movie. I really enjoyed the movie. I loved Hawkman and Doctor Fate, the were way high points in the movie. The action and killing was fantastic. I hope we eventually get the extended cut with the stuff they cut to dodge the R rating.

Waiting for this review for so long,finally it's here🙌

Am glad to hear that the movie has good action scenes. This is what am gonna watch if for!

I did enjoy this movie. I enjoyed seeing all the superheroes and glad they all got a good amount of screen time.

Our fictional content is being destroyed by real life personas.

I really want to hear more from Alex, love his view and interpretation of things :)
