The African American story is a relatively know allegory for the comman person. But rarely has it ever been expressed on such a canvas as Marvel’s latest entry, Black Panther.
Directed by Ryan Coogler (Creed) and staring a considerably power all star cast including Chadwick Boseman, Michael B Jordan, Lusitania Nyung’o, Angela Bassett, Forest Whitaker, Andy Serkis, Daniel Kaluuya and Sterling K Brown, Black Panther takes the viewers on a journey thru the fictional African nation of Wakanda. The visuals are surprisingly authentic with an electrifying color palette and costume design ripped straight out of culture in the heart of the continent.
Continuing an 18 film interconnected storyline, while also centering on a stand-alone arch, the movie focuses mainly on the rise of T’Challa as king after the assasinasion of his father T’Chaka.
Pulse pounding action and gripping intrigue indie as we follow the protagonist on a mission to track down a murderer of his people, Ulysses Klaw and coming to grips that being king is no easy task.
The movie takes a turn when an unknown adversary appears to challenge T’Challa for the throne.
Black Panther examines the struggle of African American culture through a unique lens and also explores the bond of family and the love of ones nation all in a tight package. This is a must see for both comic book enthusiasts and the casual viewer. Take the family to see this one...you won’t be disappointed
