This time, I've got films that share a lot more similarities from each other - both are action comedies, both films have a teenager as respective protagonists, and both have critical acclaim. Which film do you think is better and why?

I liked Far From Home more. Shazam was good fun but I found it a bit predictable. That had been my problem lately with DC movies. They are much better than during the Snyder era but most are safe and predictable. Usually five minutes in I can see where it is going.

I enjoyed both, but I enjoyed Spider-Man: Far From Home just a little bit more.

Funny enough, I just rewatched Shazam last night. I’m my mind it’s the better movie, but I prefer it slightly.

I didn't mind Shazam but the ending really let it down by turning into Power Rangers.
Spider-Man was much better.

FFH had the way better villain and far more exciting action scenes. The plot was more complex, the humor less slapsticky and tensions more palpable.
Shazam is one of the best DCEU movies whereas FFH is near the middle of MCU movies and so I think people are immediately putting Shazam on a higher pedestal. But comparing the two movies objectively, FFH offers way more than Shazam.

I'll go with Far From Home. Shazam is good, but a real struggle to get through on a second viewing.

They're both okay. Enjoyable enough, but also kind of generic. I'll give the edge to Shazam, but only slightly.

Far From Home was garbage, the worst spiderman movie. I liked Shazam better Nah, that would be a toss up between Spider-Man 3 and The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but if you want to count all of them regardless of studio or budget there is that foreign film where he's a bad guy going against Captain America. Also, you should try to explain why you feel Far From Home is the worst and why you liked Shazam! better, because with your pal DC-Fan gone you're going to have to try harder and be less troll-ish.
