I feel like I just watched the entire movie in three minutes. There was even a final fight where the hero is on the brink of losing and uncovers a new well of power through desperate determination. And I still feel like I wasted my time.
It's the 2nd best live action comic book movie this year after Guardians of the Galaxy 3, but granted that's a low bar compared to Shazam 2 and Quantumania.
