Females take the lead in sequel
Movie Review: Black Panther – Wakanda Forever
It took six months for filmmaker Ryan Coogler to direct Wakanda Forever and he started the adventure on June 29, 2021, but it wasn’t until November 10, 2022 that people could see the final movie, which runs over two and a half hours.
Black Panther – Wakanda Forever delves at what it means to be Black, not only in America but also in Africa and, more generally, around the world. Rather than avoiding complicated issues such as race and identity, the film confronts them full on.
Everything that inspired me: Lesotho, a nation in southern Africa, served as an influence for filmmaker. Basotho blankets acquired popularity as a result of the film’s influence from Lesotho.
The actual animal, the Black Panther, is associated with elegance, safety, beauty, the night, magic, inner power, and even knowledge of the afterlife in mythology.
I thought the movie was excellent and would absolutely recommend it. I like how they really dedicated this movie to Chadwick Boseman, the lead of the first Black Panther movie, who passed away in 2020. This sequel carried a lot with it and even had a minor surprise twist at the end.
I like that this movie featured a strong female lead (Leticia Wright as Shuri, a princess who becomes a queen). There are also several other strong female roles, since the country features an all-female special forces unit, led by Okoye (played by Danai Gurira).
I’d describe the film genre as being heavily action, fantasy, adventure, and science fiction. I would rate it a 9.5/10.
I spend most of my time watching TV and hanging out with my little sisters. I enjoy watching Stranger Things and eating Mexican food.
