Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)


Director: Ryan Coogler. Cast: Letitia Wright, Danai Gurira, Angela Bassett, Martin Freeman. 161 min. Fantasy/Action.

  • Other than the small positive of having an interesting villain, the only major attribute I can assign this nth Marvel movie, is its beautiful send-off of its recently passed Black Panther role actor, Chadwick Bosman. And how do you make a sequel, when your main (beloved) actor is no longer with us? Simple: you respectfully don't include him, and as Persians might say, show how empty his spot is, because nothing can fill that spot. And that's exactly what Wakanda Forever perfectly does. Otherwise, no matter how hard Letitia Wright and Angela Bassett (as sister and mother of the deceased Black Panther) try, it's quite hard to keep this two and half hour plus movie (why are movies so long these days!!!) from getting boring. After all, the first time a superhero shows up, is almost almost two hours into the movie. Go figure.
