‘Black Panther’ First Reviews Call It the Best Marvel Movie To Date
Black Panther had its world premiere last night and the very first reactions are in. Unsurprisingly, the Marvel movie is getting rave reviews, with many critics calling the best Marvel movie to date. Full reviews are still under embargo, but based on reactions on Twitter, you can get a pretty solid idea of just how crazy everyone is about to go for T’Challa’s solo debut.
Critics are praising everything from the costumes to the fully-realized world of Wakanda, the supporting characters (like Letitia Wright’s Shuri, Lupita Nyong’o’s Nakia, Danai Guriria’s Okoye, and Michael B. Jordan's villain) to the film's bold political message. I saw it last night, and those are all praises I’d 100 percent agree with – it’s fun, smart, and beautiful, and it made me tear up twice. Stay tuned for our full review next week, but for now, here’s what a handful of critics had to say on Twitter.
So yup, this movie is going to destroy the box office when it finally hits theaters February 16. Be ready.
