Wai Ting and Nate Milton (The Rocky Maivia Picture Show, Kings of Sport) review the eighteenth Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Black Panther (2018).
The two discuss the work of director Ryan Coogler (Creed, Fruitvale Station), Michael B. Jordan’s incredible performance as Erik Killmonger and why he may be the MCU’s greatest villain, the film’s questions about African-American displacement, the social impact of its portrayals of women and African culture, as well as its record-breaking box office success.
Synopsis from Google:
After the death of his father, T’Challa returns home to the African nation of Wakanda to take his rightful place as king. When a powerful enemy suddenly reappears, T’Challa’s mettle as king — and as Black Panther — gets tested when he’s drawn into a conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the entire world at risk. Faced with treachery and danger, the young king must rally his allies and release the full power of Black Panther to defeat his foes and secure the safety of his people.
