Black Adam review

Image
  In what has been a long time coming and a passion project for Dwayne Johnson Black Adam finally arrives on the big screen making his DC film debut. Black Adam's story is one of slavery, power and ultimately becoming a symbol for the people of your home. It stars Dwayne Johnson as the titular anit-hero real name Teth Adam. He is imprisoned in a tomb with thousands of years having passed since he was cast into the tomb by the very same wizards who gave Billy Batson the power to turn into the hero Shazam. Thousands of years have passed in the city of Khandaq which is now under control by a group named Intergang they rule over with a pretty concrete fist. That all changes when a group of people come across the tomb of Black Adam when looking for a crown that is said to have belonged to a King of Khandaq years previous, the same King that Black Adam defeated in a pretty brutal manner. It is from here where the story truly kicks into gear as the things heat up in big and bombastic way.

                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. This weeks episode of Stargirl is part one of a two parter episode arc revolving around Jennie and Todd Rice. The episode begins six months in the past as we catch up with Jennie who last we saw helped Courtney and everyone else defeat Eclipso. She is at the care home she grew up in and is now leaving ready to out on her own. She sits on the steps of the building and looks inside of a package she was given by the woman who runs the care home. Inside we see a toy car, a photo of her and her brother Todd when they were kids and finally most important is the Green Lantern ring once belonging to Alan Scott. As Jennie picks up the ring we're brought to Civic City where we finally meet Todd Rice who just so happens to be sneaking into a building with his friend Danny as it's his birthday and Danny has prepared a special meal for the two. As Todd sits down while Dan

                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. After a lackluster 2 episodes Stargirl returns to form and in a big way. The episode begins with Rick who we see going into the gym at night to test out his hourglass after last week removing the limiter on it. He is easily able to go over one hour now and go he does as he lifts weights and trains hard. He shouts and pumps the air once the hour time limit passes and he is still able to lift the weights with ease. As this is going on we see that Rick is being watched just like everyone in Blue Valley it seems. What's odd here however is that a puzzle is being made by whoever this is. It slowly begins to form more and more as the episode goes on but it's really hard to make it out. Just who is watching everyone?? we soon see Yolanda at confession as she talks to her parish priest about forgiveness for what she is about to do. This is leading on from last week a

                Be warned there will be SP OILERS* inv olved in this review. With that being said let's get into it. Stargirl returns from it's week hiatus with an interesting episode to say the least. It begins as we see the after events of The Gambler's death from the perspective of Cindy. We see her standing over the lifeless body of The Gambler before picking up his gun. The gun goes off when she shoots it by accident when her physical pain flares up once again. This is when the JSA arrived on the scene as we saw them catching Cindy almost red-handed with the gun in her hand. It's a bit of an odd start but nevertheless it was interesting to see Cindys side of what happened post Gambler being murdered. At the end of the last episode we saw that Courtney had seen the power of Cameron unleashed and wasn't really fazed by it. Here the two are still hanging out and by the looks of it very much crushing on one another..hard. Cameron walks Courtney home and the two onc
