Germain Lussier from iO9 shared this black adam it’s tight and fast, but he also calls it “messy” and says the titular anti-hero isn’t the savior of the franchise some hope is:
#BlackAdam is a worthy new piece of the DC puzzle, but not the savior it promised. A stunning compressed timeline keeps the action exciting and the pace fast, but also transforms its many (many) themes, plots and characters into elegant showcases. It is visibly messy. pic.twitter.com/uwZUb2hbiMOctober 13, 2022

DC’s #BlackAdam ROCKS! Tons of action, instantly engaging characters, and incredible pace. Dwayne Johnson strikes a good balance between being threatening and tough, but also empathetic.

I had to go through the metal detectors for the Black Adam NY screening. Too bad it’s bad: no emotional depth, no sense of danger for the main character, and boring CGI battles. #BlackAdam pic.twitter.com/gUjxHy1oUOOctober 13, 2022
