The queen mother of Wakanda, this “Black Panther” star stunned in an Alberta Ferretti red dress with dramatic poofed-out sleeves and a divine high slit complimented with Chopard jewelry. ![]() But I won't rush to do that.Image Credit: Photo by Matt Petit/Getty Images ![]() Anyway, it was enjoyable and I'll maybe watch it again. The Talokan/Atlantis story was odd to me and felt so disconnected from Wakanda. However, maybe it was too hard for the cast and crew to linger on. That should have been the pivotal moment for the story, but it was brushed over. The beginning when T'Challa dies felt cold and rushed. The story was gaping with holes and so much was skipped over with little explanation. I've just come from the cinema and I am struggling to remember much of it. The rest of the film felt slow, boring almost. The only one I didn't like was the Midnight Angels (or whatever they were called). I also enjoyed the costumes - wow were they beautiful. I never cry in the cinema but this film really had me going because it felt from the heart in some scenes, and I am sure it was. All the emotional scenes were well-scripted and well-acted, and I have to commend Angela Bassett and Letita Wright for their fantastic acting. Chadwick's passing is unbelievably sad but it did leave a gap for Marcel to fill, and they could have done it so well. I can't imagine how hard it was for everyone in the film to come back without a lead, and most importantly, their friend. This film had some great stuff in it, there's no doubt of that, but I felt it was overall weak. ![]()
