“Shazam” (*** out of four) was an enchanting adaptation of the DC comic book story about a streetwise 14-year old (Asher Angel) who finds he is able to magically transform into a crime-fighting superhero named Shazam (Zachary Levi) which leads to all-out war with an evil physicist (Mark Strong) who wants the superhero powers for his own. No masterpiece but film more than entertains with some impressive visual effects and solid action set pieces and a few unexpectedly touching moments regarding abandonment and adolescence along the way. A definite treat for comic book fans and DC fanatics.
