Review of Black Panther 2018 Full Movie: The first trailer was very good and I've been watching it 20 to 30 times. Then the second trailer came and I became lest inserted because they were doing the same thing as the other movies do. Have the hero and villain fight with the same abilities and I hate that. Then the TV spot trailer came and I got more excited to see the film. A bit confusing but whatever.
Seeing what this character did in Civil War, I cannot wait to see what they do with him in this solo film. I hope we get some bad-ass Black Panther action! This should open up another world to the ignorance that has developed in this country. Not only is there an equal number of Muslims and Christians there, but it will humanize people that Americans know nothing about!!!
Almost wordless for its first hour, this dour no-frills portrait of murderer Donald Nielsen's pathetic abduction and murder of heiress Lesley Whittle suffers from a slightly clumsy script and unnecessary captions. It chooses not to investigate Neilsen's reasons, which is a mistake. What it does have in its favor is a very accurate seventies look and feel and a good score. And Donald Sumpter is good as the unattractive Nielsen.
With endless hilarity, creativity, and diversity, this film is without a doubt one of the best Marvel films ever. The characters are exactly what they should be, the visuals are stunning, the soundtrack is breathtaking, the plot is outstanding, and the acting is Oscar-worthy. Sure, it didn't change my life, but it left me with a smile and some pretty resounding statements.
The victim of a hysterical proto-sadist video press campaign which killed its initial theatrical run, The Black Panther is actually anything but the insensitive exploitation piece that damned it so long to distribution limbo.
Charting the bizarre killing spree of wannabe criminal mastermind Donald Neilson, this insightful, intelligent thriller feels chillingly authentic in its construction. No avant-garde pretentions or sensationalist hyper-reality to be found here unlike its accused grindhouse brethren. Director Ian Merrick is to the point with his direction and only benefits the film with his "lack of adventure" should I say, but major credit goes to Michael Armstrong who's minute detail script does what the journalists at the time couldn't be bothered with and lays out fully the whole grim affair to the best the evidence available could suggest. Donald Sumpter is fearless as Panther. A little theatrical for some maybe, but you have to consider that this was no ordinary serial killer. A house thief that turned to armed robbery, then kidnap for ransom, this was no helpless manchild or crusading zealot, he really thought himself as a criminal genius and so would be full of himself, yes? Sumpter understood this and his portrayal of Neilson as the tragic fool gives great clarity to the events on top of the well-researched script.
Overall a horrific, challenging and truthful dramatization that is a masterclass in true-life crime filmmaking, a true hidden gem. well, actually this movie is from 1977!...Rotten Tomatoes, you fail! Anyways, this film is weak and dull, but I can only imagine how controversial it must have been when it was released only a few months after the guy was captured.
