LEGO DC Shazam!: Magic and Monsters (2020) is a movie I recently watched on HBOMAX. The storyline follows Shazam when he is surprisingly asked to join the Justice League. He is hesitant at first because he's never had to reveal his identity or work within a team dynamic, but when Black Adam and the Monsters Society appear, they capture the Justice League and Shazam and Batman are their final hope. Can Shazam let his guard down and save the Justice League? This movie is directed by Matt Peters (Justice League Dark: Apokolips War) and contains the voices of Sean Astin (Lord of the Rings), Imari Williams (Demon Slayer), Troy Baker (Batman vs Robin), Grey Griffin (Transformers) and Jennifer Hale (Blood of Artemis). The depiction of the kids at the orphanage are so good as are the settings, especially the Wizard's cave. The extended DC universe is awesome as was the interactions between characters. The idea of turning all DC characters into kids was great and funny. The script in this is pretty solid and the animation is excellent. Black Adam was awesome and there's some good messages in here about trust and teamwork. Overall this was a pretty well written and executed film I'd score a solid 7-7.5/10. I'd recommend seeing this once.
