Shazam! Fury of the Gods' Rotten Tomatoes score is lower than the DCEU average and significantly lower than the first Shazam!. The DCEU has always suffered from polarizing Rotten Tomatoes scores, and while the first Shazam! is one of the better-reviewed movies in the franchise, Shazam! Fury of the Gods is yet another critical stumble, arriving at a time when it's not even clear if the future of the DC movie universe includes plans for Billy Batson or the rest of the "Shazamily."
While Shazam! Fury of the Gods initially had a Fresh Rotten Tomatoes score in the 60s, it quickly dropped below the 60-percent threshold into Rotten territory, and currently sits at a Rotten 54 percent. Compared to the first Shazam! movie and the DCEU average Rotten Tomatoes scores (excluding recent non-DCEU DC movies like Joker, Zack Snyder's Justice League, and The Batman), Shazam! Fury of the Gods is both par for the course, but also one of the wildest combinations of Rotten Tomatoes scores in the DCEU. Here's how it compares and what makes it unique.
