Movie Review: Black Panther
I loved Black Panther! It wasn't my favorite Marvel's superheroes movie, but it was different and exciting.
T'Challa is a great leader and I can see him as a great avenger. He cares for his nation, his people, but is intelligent and calm. You won't see him fighting without a cause or if it isn't really necessary. He is the perfect person to carry the honor to be the Black Panther. He's the king and heir of Wakanda, a rich nation but hidden from the world, and it comes the time when their secrets are going to be revealed, by force or by decision.
I loved how he was surrounded by amazing women who helped him during his quest. His sister and his guard were incredible, and interesting characters to look up.
Obviously this movie showed Hollywood that other types of heroes can also be a success and even wanted. I'm tired to see the same type of heroes, I wanted something different and Black Panther gave me that. Another country, another culture, another race. The superheroes world is still dominated by men (except for Wonder Woman) but doors are opening and I can't wait to see what's out there.
It doesn't have as much action as other superheroes movies, but it's darker sometimes, specially the villain. I suppose I was expecting it to be a slower movie because it's an introductory movie, we don't really know a lot about Wakanda at first. But also, I can't wait for the big fight at the next movie Avengers: Infinity Wars.
I still need to see this one! I'm glad that you enjoyed it overall, even if it's not your favorite Marvel film.

DeleteHi Gaby! Thanks for stopping by my blog :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't had a chance to go to the movies in a while but i'm hoping I can catch this movie while it's in the theaters. i love marvel and i've been hearing so many AMAZING things about black panther
If you love Marvel you definitely have to watch it :)
DeleteI have to wait for the DVD. SO little time for the cinema and so dang expensive
ReplyDeleteOh no! But I'm sure the DVD will have new scenes!
DeleteI'be been so busy in the last few weeks that I haven't had a chance to see it yet. I'm not a fan of the Marvel films really, only because I've never been able to get into the superhero film franchises and have no idea what movie to begin with but super excited to see this one. I love Danai Gurira in The Walking Dead. It's brilliant to see how many young girls of colour especially have rejoiced in having strong black women as inspirational role models, especially in Hollywood where this film alone could see a massive cultural shift. I have to get off my ass and see it this weekend. Brilliant review Gaby! <3
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelly! It's so cool to see young girls playing brave and intelligent characters, it's not usual. And I love what this movie represents.
DeleteI'm sure you will like it :)
