The wait is finally over. Marvel Studios' Black Panther: Wakanda Forever arrives in stores on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD (It released to Digital back on February 1st). Many Black Panther fans, including myself, wondered how Marvel Studios would go on with the movie franchise after the passing of Chadwick Boseman. He was the Black Panther and still is the Black Panther in my eyes. But, the director did a wonderful job in celebrating Boseman's life and legacy, before passing the torch to Shiri. I really felt as I was watching this movie that it was made as grieving/healing process, not just for the Black Panther cast and crew, but also for fans of the franchise, as we celebrated and remembered why we fell in love with the first Black Panther movie. It will pull at your heartstrings, and make you want to re-watch the first one to remember the great Chadwick Boseman.
Just like with the first Black Panther movie, this one will have you glued to the edge of your seat from start to finish. An underwater civilization is introduced in this release, the underwater kingdom of Talokan. There is so much action, and your emotions will be here, there and everywhere. But, in the end, I feel like this movie did Bozeman justice and helped the world heal a little, while remembering his legacy. If you missed this movie when it was in theaters, or waited for it to arrive on DVD and Blu-ray, now is the time to pick it up and watch it with your family. This is one movie you will definitely want to watch time and again. And, the bonus features are not to be missed!
