As a stand-alone super-hero story, "Black Adam," perhaps fares better than it does when compared to the far more entertaining and seemingly retconned "Shazam!"

Julia Roberts and George Clooney somehow manage to elevate "Ticket to Paradise" above just a mediocre offering to something more endearing and entertaining.

While "Amsterdam" may not be David O. Russell’s finest work, it does provide a wave of euphoria in witnessing an attempt at something spectacularly different.
