Twelve Films At Christmas - 5

Black Panther is Marvel Comics meets Shakespeare meets the Old Testatment. A clever and visually stunning film, it has pretensions but never lets them get in the way of the action. I really enjoyed this - Chadwick Boseman as the Panther has tones of my old mate Titus Andronicus, while Michael B. Jordan is a compelling villain. Good stuff, indeed far better than I had expected. 8/10.
