It's okay.
Much better than the awful Thor 4: Love and Thunder a few months ago, but very predictable and by the numbers.
Black Adam keeps repeating throughout the movie that he's "not a hero," except he pretty much acts as one in this movie and is way, WAY toned down from his comics version, who is a hundred times more brutal and violent and villainous, frequently killing thousands without justification.
I liked the Justice Society. The boy Amon was annoying. The undead at the end were a laughable non-threat when they are getting easily beaten by ordinary people wielding improvised weapons.
The mid-credits scene is very cool, but doesn't say the greatest thing for the movie when the coolest moment in the entire movie is the mid-credits scene.

As opposed to the white Adam that Eve fed the apple to?

"Did Black Adam Star Dwayne Johnson Leak Misleading Box Office/Profit Details About the Movie?"
Summary: Black Adam is not doing well at the box office, but a recent Deadline article claimed that the movie was profitable, a claim which was widely criticized as using bad statistics and dubious accounting. It now appears that article was engineered by Dwayne Johnson.

It was a little better than average as I’ve seen a lot worse.
The story was good, villains unique and the Justice Society being part of it was a big positive.
The problem is Black Adam can’t really carry his own movie by himself and was never going to be this huge part of the DC Universe that the Rock envisioned.
At some point they need to revisit the Justice Society because it’s more interesting than the straight up JLA.

I found it to be a pretty average, and forgettable movie.
But after watching that, I realized this movie is so much worse. And he's right, I forgot about the main villain.
