I went to see Black Panther on the weekend. In fact, I indulged and went with the DBox seats, which gives you the movement and rumble and jerks you around some. I have seen three different movies in these seats and this one used it the best - there was more than just jerking during fight scenes, which I appreciated.
There are spoilers below, so go back now if you don't want to read any.
I very much enjoyed this movie. It was so smooth and slick, the CGI seamless. The pictrue quuality stunning. And what a movie to be stunning on - the landscapes were absolutely beautiful.
The characters were all strong and well-portrayed. I especially liked the head of the guard. She was amazing. Both gorgeous and capable, strong and funny and so fierce. Two of my favorite parts feature her - her utter annoyance at the wig (and I have to say, now that I've gone bald for close to a year, I get it. I start to feel the need to shave anytime I go three or four days without doing so) and when she steps in front of the charging rhino and it comes to a complete stop at her feet and licks her face. Loved it!
Weirdest part of the movie - Martin Freeman with an american accent... weird. Also neat that this is now the third 'franchise' featuring both Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman: Sherlock Holmes, Lord of the Rings and the Marvel Avengers movies.
I liked that the big bad guy was not the obvious guy. I liked the parallels they drew to things in the world. And I liked the message of the movie.
I also wanted to see each and every movie that they previwed! It might be a movie in the theatre heavy year for movies in 2018!
Anyway, I highly recommend the movie, especially if you're a Marvel movie fan.
