Following the death of the King of Wakanda (in Captain America: Civil War), Prince T’Challa ascends to the throne as the new King. However, he isn’t the only contender.
This is one gorgeous movie, with plenty of action and scope. I particularly liked Letitia Wright, as the coolest sister, ever.
And Jordan, as Killmonger, is awesome as a vicious pseudo-revolutionary who seeks glory over leadership.
There is plenty of action, both high-tech and not-much; one of my very few issues with the film is that they did not mix well.
I highly recommend this one; it is one of the best Marvel movies, ever. I did not see this in 3-D and I doubt it would be much improved by that. There is a mid-credit and post credit scene; the later is very portentous and worth waiting for.
Flytrap rating: 8/10
