The L.A. screening for Marvel’s ‘Black Panther went down last night and the FANS and critics are going BERZERK! The full cast hit the red carpet in African-inspired attire as celebs from around the INDUSTRY took part in what is soon to be a GLOBAL PHENOMENON!!
The consensus about the movie is that the REVIEWS so far have been nothing less than GLOWING!
Tre’vell Anderson, a writer at the Los Angeles Times, called the film a “love letter about blackness, to a world that often ghettoizes it without realizing that it is on the black backs that this planet revolves.”

Black Panther looks, feels and sounds unlike any Marvel film to date. A visual feast. Wakanda is amazingly realized, the antagonist actually has an arc with emotional motivations. Marvels most political movie. So good. #BlackPanther
