Shazam! di David F. Sandberg uscito ad aprile del 2019 ha convinto appieno la critica statunitense (93% di recensioni positive su Rotten Tomatoes) ed il pubblico americano, incassando 364 milioni di dollari e risultando quindi un buon successo per la Warner Bros. che ha speso “soltanto” 80 milioni per produrlo. Due anni fa, Warner ha confermato l’uscita di un sequel, intitolato Shazam!: Fury of the Gods (Shazam!: Furia degli Dèi in Italia), che uscirà il 16 marzo 2023.
In nottata è scaduto l’embargo per le “social reaction” da parte della stampa che ha avuto modo di vedere in anteprima il film… ed il verdetto è totalmente positivo!
Il film viene definito come divertente, ricco di cuore e con delle ottime antagoniste (interpretate da Helen Mirren e Rachel Zegler). Inoltre, riesce a bilanciare perfettamente l’ampio cast, concedendo ad ognuno il proprio momento per brillare. Ottimi commenti anche per quanto riguarda le scene d’azione e la regia di David F. Sandberg.
Un’avventura per famiglie che eleva perfettamente tutto ciò che ha funzionato del primo capitolo.
Ecco alcuni dei commenti:
#ShazamFuryOfTheGods is the most FUN I’ve had at the movies! Filled with comedic charm & heart, there’s a lot to love about this family. @LucyLiu, Helen Mirren & @rachelzegler are a force to be reckoned with & a joy to watch. @PonySmasher HITS it outta the park! pic.twitter.com/KSqe8y89nk

#ShazamFuryOfTheGods is what I wanted the movie to be. The film does a good job of balancing this large cast and it’s just a fun superhero movie with a lot of heart. I’d love to see these characters and actors carry on in the #DCU and I think it can fit it. Go see it for yourself pic.twitter.com/MkhTz3GqjO

#ShazamFuryOfTheGods // #ShazamMovie is a super-powered sequel that packs a punch. A super solid, super fun & super smart blend of hilarity, heart & heroics. Ramps up the action & irreverence to a delightful degree. Helen Mirren, Lucy Liu & Rachel Zegler are MVPs. ❤️ the dragon! pic.twitter.com/C4eP4ukAk1

The Shazam Family is back and ready for action in #ShazamFuryOfTheGods. Zachary Levi does a great job leading his super family into battle against a trio of scorned goddesses. Full of humor and emotion, Fury of the Gods is definitely worth watching for anyone who enjoyed Shazam! pic.twitter.com/JP7hSuXKeq

SHAZAM FURY OF THE GODS is endearing, hilarious, entertaining and epic. Helen Mirren stands out as a great addition to Shazam's roster. Sandberg's film is just as engaging as the first, but here the stakes are upped. Huge twists galore, DC fans are going to love Shazam 2 #Shazam pic.twitter.com/nrNedK2xIu

#ShazamFuryOfTheGods is EXHILARATING! David F. Sandberg whips up a captivating and truly funny story that can be celebrated with the whole family. Rachel Zegler, Jack Dylan Grazer, and Dijmon Hounsou are standouts for me. Fury of The Gods is SUPERPOWERED FUN! #ShazamMovie pic.twitter.com/s9zaHZZsF3

Shazam continues to lean into his silliness and immaturity in this sequel which tells us this franchise will remain to keep these films funny, light and slapstick-ish. The sequel comes with more action, compelling villains and a complicated antihero. #ShazamFuryOfTheGods #Shazam2 pic.twitter.com/Po5J64rd91

#ShazamFuryOfTheGods is so full of heart. Just like its predecessor the focus on family is at the core of what @ponysmasher and co. have produced and it's equally as gripping.
The stakes are higher, the monsters are scarier (and cooler) and I can't wait for you to meet Steve✒️! pic.twitter.com/hYXgkjXwwg
