T'Challa, after the death of his father, the King of Wakanda, returns home to the isolated, technologically advanced African nation to succeed to the throne and take his rightful place as king.
Where to even start! Great plot, fantastic characters, and the actors that play them, action-packed, tackles serious social issues without preaching, well-placed levity. A must see for any Marvel fan or action-movie lover.
Love Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa/Black Panther. He can pull off bad a$$ in one scene and charm with that brilliant smile in the next. Don't get me started on his voice/accent. It is meant to be whispered in your ear. :swoon:
But the best thing about T'Challa was the women he was surrounded with. My favorite characters in the movie were his sister, Shuri (Letitia Wright), T'Challa's general, Okoye (Danai Gurira), and the love of his life, Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o). Strong women characters you want your young daughter to see.
I also want to mention the villain, Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) What a great character. A classical arch-nemesis. He was a psycho monster, no doubt, but a sympathetic one. Created by the very ideals T'Challa tries to defend.
Like all Marvel movies, there is well-timed humor to keep things from getting too dark.
This one is best seen on the big screen.
