Black Adam has nothing to offer, overstuffed with derivative tropes. There's blunt dialogue, obvious exposition, awkward comedy, predictable twists, flat characters, excessive plotlines, rushed emotions, weak motivations, repetitive battles, and contrived devices. Consequently, the film is tensionless, tedious, and cliche. Some will say The Rock carries the film, but he's very one-note and much less polarizing than intended. Black Adam introduces a debate about extrajudicial execution but avoids honoring the serious topic. Plus, the peripheral acting is mild or weak. Ultimately, Black Adam sticks to tired formulas, underdeveloped substance, and insincere connections.
Technically, Black Adam is inconsistent, unoriginal, and misguided. Its visuals use movement, contrast, and composition, but that's outweighed by drab colors, cluttered frames, confusing action, and a sterile atmosphere. This coincides with the excessive CGI, which overtakes imagery and undercuts grit. Meanwhile, the music is uninspired, the generic production design is convoluted, and the cast is thin. Its sound adds narrations, abstractions, stings, and complexity, but comes across noisy because it's missing intimacy. Similarly, the editing is rushed, overcut, and exhausting. Overall, Black Adam has an uneven tone, halfheartedly committing in all directions. Consequently, it's a routine mess.
