Shazam! Comic-Con Trailer Reactions: 6 Ups And 1 Down

5. The Humour And Tone Are Wonderful

On that note, the teaser as a whole does a wonderful job of establishing its own brand of comedy, and a tone that doesn't take itself too seriously at all.

For anyone who does prefer their heroes to be more serious, then there's a chance this is all going to look a little bit too silly, but Levi's charm and the sense of knowing they clearly have makes it work brilliantly.

There are some great gags in here, both verbal and visual, and it's good to see right from the off a movie that knows exactly what it is and what it wants to be, and fully embracing the spirit of it too. This is, after all, a movie where teenage kids get to play at being superheroes, and the teaser perfectly encapsulates that and puts the emphasis on how awesome it would be.
