Dave craps on a movie - BLACK PANTHER
Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2020 10:30 am
I finally got to watch my "next" MARVEL Film for free. . . Black Panther.
That should be a warning about my attitude toward MARVEL films - - only if free. . .
This really is an origin story to create the fictional kingdom of Wakanda and it's wonderful metal - Vibranium (That's cousin to the element "Unobtanium") ... The Black Panther is one warrior who is given special powers by an herb that grows on the Vibranium meteorite that gives Wakanda it's power and advances technology.
So Wakanda is hidden from the world and when it's king T'Chaka dies and his son, T'Challa, is to inherit but is challenged by M'baku and eventually challenged by the long lost son of his Uncle N'Jobu who adopts the name "Killmonger" because he was mostly raised by the CIA secret killer squads.
Got all that? - - don't worry there's enough eye candy fight scenes, strange rituals, and storyline to cover al the strangeness of the names for you Lily white folk out there. There's lots of excellent actors in this movie that I hope to see more of their work in the future.
It really is a decent movie but it introduces they mythology of Wakanda and another superhero in the Marvel Universe. . .
The villain is a one-armed mercenary who wats to steal all the vibranium he can and sell it as weapons of mass distraction or world domination to whoever will buy it and conquer their neighbors...
Lots of fights, lots of odd and strange energy weapons. Raging rhinoceroses and anti-gravity stuff. Exotic settings and costumes. It's all there in one movie. Lots of entraining emptiness and diverting oddities.
