Black Panther (2018) movie REVIEW


Black Panther – REVIEW (SPOILER ALERT)   Sci-Fi, Action  (Marvel Superhero)  2hr 14 min

This film was action packed and I enjoyed it. It spoke to me that we should not remain neutral as a people when its within our power to help those under oppression and the defenseless like orphans and widows and the poor.  If we remain neutral too long (as displayed in this film) the enemy may eventually come for us also and by then it may be too late. 

Its very well acted and you find yourself having emotional reactions to different characters.  The film shows how our choices effect the future.  One of my favorite scenes was when Black Panther (thought dead) returns to face Killmonger -- General Okoye must choose quickly whom she will follow.  I thought it very sad Killmonger didn’t at least attempt to be healed in the end and possibly join the Black Panther.  They would have been awesome together.  Maybe his hurt ran too deep or he thought he would be betraying his father.  No son or daughter should have to carry such burdens and why each generation must make their own way and leave the past in the past, but always learning from it and remembering lest we repeat the mistakes made throughout history.  Those that live by the sword will die by the sword.  The king doesn’t wield the axe of justice for nothing.  Those with honor and integrity shall be glad, but those who seek to steal, kill and destroy should be afraid, very afraid.
