ViewBag Message not displaying in view in mvc5

"New Movie" is not displaying in View. Instead, it is displaying "ViewBag.Message" directly. But the data in ViewModel works fine.

NewMovie Action Method:

public ViewResult NewMovie()
{
  var movieType = _context.MovieTypes.ToList();
  var viewModel = new MovieViewModel { MovieTypes = movieType };
  ViewBag.Message = "New Movie";
  return View("MovieForm", viewModel);
}

MovieForm View:

@model VideoRentalApp.ViewModel.MovieViewModel
@{
  ViewBag.Title = "Movie Information";
  Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}

<h2>ViewBag.Message</h2>

Use <h2>@ViewBag.Message</h2>. The asterisk @ denotes a variable reference. Otherwise the razor compiler interprets the string as just that, a string.
