The silver lining for “Black Adam” is that it has been doing well on demand. A month after its theatrical release, on November 22, 2022, the movie hit premium VOD platforms like iTunes, where it can currently be rented for $19.99. Since then, “Black Adam” has, as Forbes reports, been leading the VOD charts, despite its underwhelming theatrical numbers. The availability of it on demand may have even contributed some to it falling off at the box office, though reviews for it were also not great, with /Film’s own Witney Seibold calling it “a superhero movie, but worse” in his review.
You have to wonder if the onset of superhero fatigue, which once seemed greatly exaggerated in the face of theatrical revenue to the contrary, might not also have played a factor in the lack of runaway success for “Black Adam.” For years, DC has been chasing the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but notwithstanding “Wakanda Forever” and “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” the overall reception to Phase Four of the MCU hasn’t been all that great, either. Maybe audiences are just finally getting tired of seeing the same cookie-cutter comic book movies.
