Seriously, that was so bad, it was bad enough to make all the other DC movies worse just by osmosis.

Spoilers.

So ok, they decide Adam is a threat because he is killing bad guys. Superheros don't kill bad guys. Lol......that was seriously the reason they attack him.

Look at it from adams point of view. His son becomes a savior/hero, then his wife gets killed in front of him and he can't protect her, then his son saves him and dies right after from an arrow. He goes and gets revenge for that, and to free his people, and the wizards stick him in suspension for 5000 years. In his perspective this has all happened in 1 day lol.

So he wakes up, saves a mom and a boy (like he couldn't save his own family), and before he can even take a nap, eat something, talk about his loss with his new friends, cry a bit etc, the justice league shows up and a hawk dude with a stick up his but tells him to submit or die lol.

Meanwhile Dr. Fate over there is like, oh wait, this dude isn't actually bad, and he is going to be needed later, maybe we should you know, talk to him. But nope, they keep attacking him, and finally he again loses control of his powers (doesn't hurt innocents on purpose, just needs some training (which he later gets in a whole 2 seconds after hawkdude is like, "you CAN control it!!".......so he agrees to lose his powers and get locked up cause he thinks he is a danger, and he hurt the boy who reminds him of his son.

Seriously dick move by the justice league members, not just hawkdude, but all of em, they didn't stand up for him or anything.

Then....hell STILL in the same day......big bad dude rises up and Dr. Fate is like "You Adam, we totally need you man, sorry for drowning you and all that" and he pops up, gets beaten up by tons of dudes on his way out, shot multiple times etc, all as a normal human (amazing how he didn't bleed at all though), and comes to save the day.

So now hawk dude is like "whatever, maybe your not all bad but don't step out of line or i'll come claw your ass". Black Adam (changed his name now) is like, whatever homie, and they take off, but that evil bitch who sent them in the first place shows up in a video and is like, Adam, we'll let you have kyro or wherever you are, but if you leave, imma send some alien superpowers at you. Adam is like bring it, and then Superman shows up.

I think she is actually TRYING to kill superman here, because she already knows 2 things.

1. Superman is impervious to almost all harm, but is weak against magic attacks.
2. Since Dr. Fate knew the demon was magic (he states it takes magic to fight magic) they also knew Adam was magic based, so if nothing else Superman would NOT be the best alien option for taking on Adam and he would be one of the best options for taking out Superman.

So yeah, I think she sent supes to go die to black adam, then after he kills the beloved superman rally all the other heros to take him down. Total dick move, she is one bad apple.

Also Adam still never got something to eat (or for that matter drink) in the whole freaking movie. I'd be in a pretty bad mood at that point as well. I mean, I guess he probably gulped down some of the sea when he was escaping. Oh they must have given him something to knock him out once he was human.....I hope it was a drink or food and not a shot.

Seriously that movie was so bad. I have heard they may be scrapping all the rest of the DC movies they had planned and going in a new direction because of it.

There was a ton of potential in this movie, especially with the rock playing the roll because he has shown to be good at humorous roles in the past and injecting a bit of fun in serious/action flicks. Non of that was included in this film, which had a dark tone, and shined a pretty crappy light on the justice league and heroes in general.
