If Slow Motion made a movie, it'd be Black Adam. Holy Sheeeet if you cut out the slow-mo it'd be barely one hour. The rest of the story is completely nonsensical. Amanda Waller is somehow the Nick Fury of the DCU telling the Justice Society to go after Black Adam just hours after he was freed because...reasons. Meanwhile, a corporation has occupied a country for 27 years without UN saying anything apparently and for some reason they have orders to detain an academic whom the leader of that corporation happens to be with for some reason so there was no reason for those detainment orders. She finds the sought-after crown that was just floating on the air for 5000 years and thank goodness Black Adam was buried/imprisoned there with the words needed to free him on his tomb so when the bad company mercs show up with a small army she can release him. How or why was he imprisoned? Don't know! How did Amanda Waller know so much how about him within hours of him being released? Don't know! How does he start speaking English in a Middle Eastern country within hours of being released to the point of mastering sarcasm and quips? Don't know! And why was there western showdown between Adam and half a dozen mercs complete with the soundtrack from the Good, Bad, and the Ugly when we had already seen him take out half an army 10 minutes earlier including attack helicopters and tanks? Was there supposed to be tension in that scene? Was it filmed before the other wipe-out-hundreds-without-breaking-a-sweat scene? Is Hawkman just Batman with wings? Nothing in this film makes any sense and people praising it or not calling it out for being a illogical narrative mess have let themselves become too blinded by the culture wars.
