marvel’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is officially certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.
Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes has announced that Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is now “Certified Fresh” on its platform, becoming the only Marvel Cinematic Universe film to accomplish the feat this year. The Marvel Studios version currently has an 84% score on 328 reviews from Tomato-approved critics.
“A poignant homage that satisfactorily moves the franchise forward, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever marks an ambitious and emotionally gratifying triumph for the MCU,” reads the official critic consensus on Rotten Tomatoes.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever opened last weekend, grossing $331.3 million at the worldwide box office on Sunday night. The film stars Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Winston Duke, Florence Kasumba, Dominique Thorne, Michaela Coel, Tenoch Huerta, Martin Freeman and Angela Bassett.
In Heroic Hollywood’s review of the film, Ryden Scarnato wrote, “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever resumes after the events of Avengers: Endgame, with T’Challa’s death becoming permanent due to Boseman’s actual passing and the story that now follows the world of Wakanda dealing with that grief. Although the film is an ensemble, it ultimately rests on the shoulders of Letitia Wright’s Shuri and Angela Bassett’s Queen Ramonda.
“When it comes to performances, everyone here is at the top of their game, and you can’t help but think that’s because of the movie’s intertwining with real life. With Wright and Bassett serving of focal points, the two are the strongest of the bunch, with incredibly personal moments that are some of the most heartfelt we’ve ever seen in the MCU.Shuri’s larger role in the film, in particular, also works for those who might have reservations.
