REVIEW: No, Dwayne Johnson's BlackAdam will not change the power hierarchy of the DCEU. It will make you believe, however, that even with a bona fide movie star on deck, this extended cinematic universe is truly a lost cause.
Bodies are flung like rag dolls, as well as being ripped apart, crushed, and incinerated by lightning. Once the melee moves outside, fighter planes, helicopters, tanks and heavy weaponry, not to mention the men who operate all of these things, are casually, brutally destroyed to the sound of the Rolling Stones’ “Paint It Black.” They wanted a hero. Because this superhuman woke up on the wrong side of the tomb, they got a killing machine instead.
Such vulgar displays of power attract the attention of the Justice Society, who seem to have dropped the “of America” part of their old comic-book name — all the better to make this organization of international peacekeepers seem less like they’re meddling in other countries’ affairs on behalf of national agendas, my dear. It’s run by Carter Hall, a.k.a. Hawkman , who has to quickly assemble a team from…whomever is on reserve, we guess? The call is answered by Kent Nelson, a.k.a.
Speaking of chaos: So what’s Hawkman’s deal? Is he a normal gent who constructed a mecha-hawk suit? Is he super-human, given that he picks up a car and throw it at one point? Some sort of combo of both? Oh, and Doctor Fate — we’re told he knows magic, can predict the future and has a helmet from outer space, but what are his powers, exactly? How’s the admittedly awesome-looking helmet play into it? Cyclone and Atom-Smasher get a bit more exposition: She’s described as “a tornado with 167 I.Q.
Should you not have entire multicharacter histories at your beck and call, you may find yourself lost in the worldbuilding wilderness, wondering how so much of this fits together, who’s capable of doing what, why certain sacrifices matter, and why you should care about these peripheral, yet supposedly important characters that take up so much screen time.
