Interestingly, the excitement among DC fans while watching the film was not about Dwayne Johnson, but rather about a different actor who was seen in a cameo. Black Adam has a special appearance by none other than ‘Superman’, Henry Cavill. His cameo in the movie has thrilled the audience; after all, it is after so many years that the fans have seen Superman on the screens once again.
Meanwhile, speaking of the film and its review, several social media users took to the micro-blogging site Twitter, to write about the film. The performances of Dwayne Johnson, Pierce Brosnan (Doctor Fate), and Aldis Hodge (Hawkman) have particularly gained appreciation from moviegoers. However, there were also some users who didn’t enjoy it much.

When the trailer of Black Adam was released, it left the DC fans excited about it. The trailer began with Dwayne Johnson, giving a narration about his journey from being a slave, to a God. He is seen as the lead character, ‘Black Adam’. His character is a rebirth as Black Adam embarks on a journey of being the most powerful entity of all time. He has the quality of being the protector as well as the destroyer. He might have given his 100 per cent and more to emote the superhero's inner turmoil with perfection but does not leave the audience as impressed as expected.
