this entry sweeps you off to a part of it you’ve never seen, a hidden lost world in Africa defined by royal traditions and technological wonders that open up refreshing new dramatic, visual, and casting possibilities
the intriguing thing about Black Panther is that it doesn’t look like a superhero film – more a wide-eyed fantasy romance: exciting, subversive and funny
Ryan Coogler delivers the best Marvel movie so far; a thrilling, well-realized story of self-determination, told with real purpose and rare confidence; this is the first Marvel movie that feels like it takes place in the real world
Coogler, 31, has proved his skills behind the camera with Fruitvale Station and Creed, but in Black Panther, he journeys into the heart of Africa to bring a new world to the screen. The result feels revolutionary
Coogler's filmmaking isn't flawless.. But he infuses nearly every frame with soul and style, and makes the radical case that a comic-book movie can actually have something meaningful to say
as a Marvel blockbuster, Black Panther is vibrant, deftly assembled fun. As a step forward in the representation of black people in cinema, it's a staggering triumph
a giddily enjoyable, convention-bucking epic that somehow manages to simultaneously be a comic-book blockbuster, a pulsating espionage thriller and an Afro-futurist family saga. That it is only Coogler's third film makes it all the more impressive
