Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is a surprisingly good movie that improves on the first film in every way!
The story line was very sobering, and emotional! I loved the change in tone for this movie, compared to recent MCU movies, in terms of well timed humor! I really hope that they cut down on a lot of humor going forward in the MCU, and make more movies like this! Only small problem I had with the plot was the social justice message involving Namor's agenda, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
The acting in this movie was amazing! Letitia Wright as Shuri was easily the best part of the movie! She brought so much heart to her character, and I love the way her character has matured since the first movie! Angela Bassett's performance as Queen Ramonda was a powerful one. She brought a lot of humanity to a character that could have easily been one dimensional. Danai Gurira as Okoye was a good performance as well, no doubt her best performance in the MCU. I was pleasantly surprised that Julia Louis-Dreyfus had more screen time, she is a very well written character.
The visuals and action scenes were excellent! They looked a whole lot better in this movie, than they did in the first Black Panther. I also felt that the action scenes had a lot more weight to them than the first Black Panther film.
They can still do another Black Panther film, even if I have no idea what route they will take. I really want to see Shuri again as well, she is easily becoming one of my favorite characters in the MCU.
Juliet Louis-Dreyfus's role sets up the plot of the Thunderbolts movie! I am really looking forward to that movie, and hope that it does not let me down!
Out of 4 stars I would give it...
3.5 out of 4 stars
