Beautiful tribute with some missed opportunities
21 November 2022
Of course like everyone else I loved the original Black Panther and this film gives a great tribute to Chadwick and T'Challa. Shuri, Okoye, Nakia and Ramonda have wonderful storylines. I liked the introduction of Riri and look forward to her future. The costumes, sets and scenery were what we would expect from the great nation of Wakanda. The backstory for Namor and his people was brilliant and Talokan was beautiful.

Saying that there were some things for me that could have been done better, the music was uninspiring. I wish there had been improvement in M'Baku's storyline and the lack of other important male characters was troubling for me as were some of the fight scenes that went on forever.

I also had the same problem with this movie as I had with the original. The villain is really not a villain. Namor and Killmonger are opposites with the same goals and to see the Waukandans flight them wasn't pleasant. I do get the point, but I wish they had circled back to the real villian. But I guess that will happen in other movies.
