The delightful superhero sequel is bigger and funnier than the first part as it successfully manages to keep the essence of humour and heart intact to its storyline.Talking about the plot, Shazam! Fury of the Gods follows the aftermath of the first part where Shazam (Zachary Levi) defeated Thaddeus and the Seven Deadly Sins.

Now, to get back all the powers, the daughters need to fight Shazam and his siblings. Who will emerge victorious?
