Black Panther

"Long live the king."

King T'Challa returns home to the reclusive, technologically advanced African nation of Wakanda to serve as his country's new leader. However, T'Challa soon finds that he is challenged for the throne by factions within his own country as well as without. Using powers reserved to Wakandan kings, T'Challa assumes the Black Panther mantle to join with ex-girlfriend Nakia, the queen-mother, his princess-kid sister, members of the Dora Milaje (the Wakandan 'special forces') and an American secret agent, to prevent Wakanda from being dragged into a world war.

**Black Panther is a good and solid entry in the MCU, but I feel like it could have been even better.**

Black Panther was a solid sup hero film with amazing characters, immaculate costumes, and an excellent cast. But I struggled with the plot giving greater focus to the villain and all the supporting cast and sidelining the Black Panther himself. After his introduction in Captain America: Civil War, little was known about this mysterious character, and while this movie introduced us to his world, it didn’t develop T’Challa as much as I had hoped. Now I know it is nitpicking, but after so many excellent standalone MCU films, I had hoped for even more for this character. That said, Chadwick Boseman plays T’Challa with incredible power and strength. In addition, Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger was an intriguing villain. But my favorite parts of the film were any scenes with Winston Duke or Andy Serkis. They were hilarious and stole the show. Black Panther was a standout in many ways, but I still wanted more opportunities to learn more about T’Challa’s character and develop him further.

Pretty good movie. I gave it a 6 because the black panter didn't really do much action in this movie.
