Reel Film Nerds

Welcome everyone to our last Marvel Cinematic Universe film review of 2022. Today Matt and Mike chat about Black Panther: Wakanda Forever starring Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira, Angela Bassett, and Tenoch Huerta. Bonus topics include Deadpool 3, death, and comic representations. Phase 4 was one of the most difficult MCU Phases to date. TV shows were introduced, the pandemic hit, and internet trolls went to town on Disney.  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is a great ending to Phase 4. It is not the strongest film of the phase but it is towards the top. The acting was very good, especially from Angela Bassett and Letitia Wright. It is tough to say goodbye to Chadwick Boseman and his portrayal of Black Panther but director and writer Ryan Coogler did an excellent job. Is Black Panther: Wakanda Forever as good as the original, no, but it is still a great film especially with the introduction of Namor and his hidden society into the MCU.  Matt and Mike both agree this is a must see film in the theate
