Black Panther
Rating: 79/100

Another Marvel origin film. Although, to be fair, it could be said that this is less Panther's origin than Killmonger's. As such, we get a small amount of nuance and exploration of a character with some internal conflict and flaw. Unfortunately, the rest of the cast isn't lucky enough to receive the same treatment. Almost annoyingly perfect, Panther's crew feels a little two-dimensional, but the nation of Wakanda instead feels lively and unique, a true living and breathing setting. However, as with most Marvel movies, the villains are given short shrift. Killmonger's defeat concretely ends his run in the franchise, and Klaw - one of the great minor Marvel villains - doesn't get remotely enough love, instead being relegated into a dull, one-off baddie. What Panther showed is a ton of potential weighed down by the strict adherence to the origin story formula. All that said, if Panther can maintain the quality of its first film, the second one should be amazing if its unencumbered by the trappings of a first film pattern.
