13. Black Adam (2022)

The movie many people thought could breathe new life into the DCEU ended up being the one that killed it. On the one hand, Black Adam is built like a thrill ride. Just a non-stop barrage of action and story. But that doesn’t give the film enough time to connect with the audience, leaving it feeling cold and disjointed. That it also tried to shoehorn in Superman feels, in retrospect, like a last-minute Hail Mary.
