I watch the movie a couple of weeks ago that was part of the Fandango membership, I thought the film was good, not great. It just ran a bit too long.

There are two credit scenes. One after the initial credits and one at the very end.

If you seen the trailers and other promo footage, you know this film is a mashup of "Big" and "The Greatest American Hero." Additionally, it's very much like Geoff Johns' New52 version of the character, but they did right by Billy in the film.

. . . There are two credit scenes. One after the initial credits and one at the very end. . .

Thanks for that info. I've left after mid-credits scenes before on the assumption that's the end only to find out about another post-credits scene later. I miss the days when you felt comfortable to leave during the credits. For that matter, I miss when credits were like 2 minutes, not 12.

LOL. Yeah, I was watching the original Halloween movie and the credits were under 2 minutes. I don't think you missed much on the second end credits scene as it felt like a deleted scene that was tacked on as another post credit scene.

I won't be able to see Shazam until this weekend sadly. I am very much looking forward to it though!

If you're seeing it on IMAX and you'll be treated to five minutes of the upcoming "Godzilla: King of Monsters."
