Black Adam in which Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson plays the lead role of this superhero with special powers has topped the box office with revenues of over $67 million, but critics have not particularly appreciated the actor’s new adventure.
Some even go as far as to say that The Rock offers a horrible performance, and that he finds himself in a very bad casting, starting with his own role.
The National Post compares the movie to an “express elevator to mediocrity”.

Some say Dwayne Johnson looks completely lost in this dark role…
Several other critics seem to agree with him, while the film has notably been called deeply mediocre and a hamburger by some journalists.
