We bring you our hot take on the 1997 forgotten mess "Shazam", starring Sinbad and Martin Short.
Joining us once again is the one-and-only Patrick H. Willems (previously on our episode on The Shadow), who brought us a movie that certainly no one is still talking about. A critical and financial failure, in many ways Shazam was the beginning of the end of Sinbad's Hollywood run. Our hosts dive deep into why that is, what went wrong and more importantly, what in this movie is worth revisiting (if anything). From the rap battle to the climactic showdown with the giant spider, be sure to not miss this epic discussion on one of the low-watermarks of the 1990s. Still, it has its moments.
You can check out all things Patrick H. Willems on Youtube.
