T’Challa rises to the spot of Wakanda’s King, but an outsider challenges T’Challa for the spot on the throne. T’Challa learns the connection he has with the vengeful outsider.

Wonderful film with amazing fighting, acting, and cinematography. It does take a while to get to the main plot, but the scenes leading up to it helps set up the culture of Wakanda used later in the film.
The main theme in ‘Black Panther’ is responsibility and identity.  Everyone had their own responsibility and the choose to take the responsibility. Such as T’Challa is to his people as King, but also for his Father’s actions.  The Antagonist, Killmonger has his own responsibility he takes in charge of and some he chooses to not. Wakanda’s responsibility and identity was question in the film. They discuss certain issues in ‘Black Panther’ and we see two different ways in solving those issues.
Another Marvel film where parts of the film was film in South Korea, this time Busan. It was cute seeing Lupita Nyong’o speaking Korean~ The Director, Ryan Coogler, also worked on the film ‘Creed’, which is a boxing film. Aspects from ‘Creed’ can be seen in ‘Black Panther’ for the traditional fight for the Wakanda throne. Wesley Snipes wanted to play as the Black Panther in the 1990s when approached by Marvel, but during that time there was issues with the setting of the story, political clashes, and limitations on effects in the films halted the project for being finished during that time.
