Black Panther: Wakanda Forever – A Non-Spoilery Review #BlackPanther #WakandaForever #Marvel
I just saw Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and it was a terrific movie and a love letter to Chadwick Boseman. This serves as a transition film and sets the table for the future of the Marvel franchise. It says goodbye to T’Challa while bringing us an action-packed story. There were some unexpected surprises too. It is a definite must-see. Well done Letitia Wright and the rest of the cast.
The Thing About Marvel Movies
In the Marvel movies, there is a requirement that in order to save the world you must blow it to kingdom come. Now I like those movies like the next nerd but there is such a scorched Earth philosophy that I find disturbing. Just think about the property damage from all the invasions and fighting between Hydra and SHIELD.
Perhaps I should just turn off my brain and just enjoy the ride. It’s also kind of hypocritical to be a critic when I have problems with critics in other stuff.
Tunes Tuesday “Celebrity Skin” by Hole From The Captain Marvel Soundtrack
This song plays over the end credits of Captain Marvel. I had never heard the song before but it appeals to my “inner grunge” I never knew was there.
Avengers: Endgame A Spoiler-Free Review
Avengers: Endgame is a magnum opus and by my estimation the greatest super hero movie ever made and also a really great film. The culmination of 21 movies that came before it Endgame is everything it needed to be and more. You don’t feel like you have been in a movie for over three hours because it goes by so fast. The dialogue and action keep you entertained and engaged from start to finish.
This is one of those movies with a galaxy of stars from all the previous films. I do believe its helpful to have seen all the previous titles so you can get full idea of what’s happening. One thing I do think is that you need to see it on a big screen. Don’t wait for this to come to home video.
Spoiler Free Review Of Captain Marvel
Captain Marvel is a terrific character and this movie showcases that terrifically. Brie Larson is a perfect choice for this role. The movie does a great job of adding context for what we have already seen in the other movies. Women heroes on screen in reality are needed now more than ever. Carol Danvers becoming Captain Marvel is a great story of never giving up and always rising to the occasion. The supporting cast featuring Samuel L. Jackson, Clark Gregg, Jude Law and Annette Benning make this movie even more special.
