Review: Superman/Shazam! Return of Black Adam Blu-ray

I loved this movie..short but awesome Black Adams the man  And it is also on dvd..

this movies would have been so much better if it was longer

Thanks for the review.  I thought that it was another DC movie, not a collection of shorts.  I will NOT be buying this.  I did pick up the Batman/Red Hood movie though and I actually liked that one better than the comic arc that it was based on.

I believe this is a must buy for a plethora of reasons. The shorts are amazing, and the Superman/Shazam story is not too bad. Can't wait to see what DC will come up with next...

That was such an awesome movie

Holy shit!  I forgot this was coming out! 

 I'll be getting this tomorrow.

This short was great, DC needs to do more with captain marvel...
He has SO much potential but dc is not doing him enough 'justice'.
 
but i do kinda agree on the whole price thing, but im a fan of the captain and im gonna get it.

I knew this was coming out so I saved a few bucks on Superman/Batman: Apocalypse and Batman: Under A Red Hood. So, yeah, buying it.

Black Adam looks waaaay too buff

Rather than shorts, I would just see the movie version of it.

I didn't even know about this. Looks cool enough to watch but if it doesn't have a long running time it defeats the price tag. lol

They need to make a Peacemaker animated movie.

won't buy it, sorry.

Looks great, but it's a bit too short for me to fork out for it.

I really enjoyed this short Captain Marvel is one of my favorite characters.

Sorry, but no sale here...not going to buy a short padded with a bunch of other shorts to fill out the dvd space.  I can get my Capt Marvel fix from either his JLU appearance or from Public Enemies.

I loved it. Great short. Can't wait for the next one.

Damn, I have everything cept the Shazam short, gonna HAVE to get. 
If there's one character DC should be using more it's Captain Marvel.

Why wasn't this made into a full feature film??
Why another short?
 
If only they had made a 1 hour long movie out of this Superman/Shazam short... oh well..

Whether it did have a collection of previous shorts or not, I'd still buy it. But good to know those are kind of extended. Hey G-Man, does the BR come with an o-sleeve like previous DC movies? Still pissed that when I got Crisis on Two Earths it didn't have one.

" @cbishop: I was wondering the same thing.  I didn't want to ask because someone on here would call me an idiot and just assume that I knew that and always should have...............so I'll let them call you idiot instead........what a dummy, you never knew Black Adam could shoot lightening out of his hands? "

This was actually pretty good. Though I noticed they toned down Superman a little bit. Superman should have been able to handle Black Adam a little better. Seeing Captain Marvel was fun as well. I mean the only other time you have ever seen that character animated was in Justice League Unlimited when Sups and Cap had their duke out which they have yet to top that battle. They should try and do a Flash Feature and see how well it does or even better Zatanna. Would also like to see Vixen get some screen time.

Looks good, but it's a lot like Superman already.  They need to make some shorts of characters that are not like Superman or Batman.  They did a Green Lantern and Wonder Woman, how come no Flash.  One of my favorite JLA unlimited episodes was Hawk and Dove.  They did a great job of showing how they were different even in how they fought each other.  Hawk more brutal, and Dove being more of a ............I don't know...........Akido type fighter.  They should do shorts of them and try to get people to buy those instead.

Cool!

I hate to be the nitpicker here, but since when does Black Adam shoot lightning from his hands?  Other than that, looked great.

its too short are they serious this is like the shortest blu-ray movie not even half an hour hell no

I DON'T have the other shorts, and I've always been a big fan when big blue and the big red cheese team up/ fight it out, so this is really intriguing to me.  I might make a stop over at Best Buy and see how much its selling for.

So any word on if they'll be rolling out a Booster Gold / Blue Beetle film sometime soon? I'm getting a bit tired of seeing the DC films focusing on the 'big names' all the time.

I will probably Netflix it.  
 
Anyone else notice that Under the Red Hood is already available for streaming on Netflix?

"Looks cool but I wish they would have like Martion the Manhunter or Hal Jordan Green Lantern instead of Superman or Captain Marvel but looks cool I wonder if this will replace Batman/Superman hope not "

What? Already out!?! Got to go pick this up tonight. Be back later. Blu-Ray is the greatest thing to watching movies!

Don't know about anyone else, but this was so under the radar for me.

Had no idea it was out until I bumped into it at my retail store.

I love the DC WB animated shows, but I can patiently wait for this to drop around the $12 price or less sometime online in the next months like I did Under The Red Hood and Justice League Crisis (got the both for only $9 a piece brand new on eBay).

I'm not driven to buy this... though I want to...its just a short...meh...

Note: The commentary tracks are only on the Blu-Ray and not the DVD edition.
