Reaction Paper About Black Panther

871 Words4 Pages

Kinetic, purposeful and visually awesome! Those are just some of the words I can use to describe how I feel about the Black Panther movie. This movie checks off a lot of boxes for what I feel is a great superhero movie. Writing, directing, costume design, soundtrack, production design and acting are all beautifully done! Warning: I will be abusing my exclamation points during this review – I loved this movie that much!!
Lets start with the writing. This film consists of many layers and one of those layers, culture, sets it apart from other superhero films. Ryan Coogler and Joe Robert Cole did a great job in infusing African culture into the film. The way women were portrayed in this movie was also a breath of fresh air (Thing I liked most about the film) – finally someone got it right! Wonder Woman was close until they threw Chris Pines character in and then I was over it, next. T’Challa’s female protection squad, the Dora Milaje and its leader Okoye play a huge role in this film. These women are depicted as warriors …show more content…

You can tell a lot of hard work, research and dedication went into each of their parts. From the way Shuri is surfing on top of a car to the skillful and meticulous way that Okoye uses her weapon. It all comes together beautifully! I found this film extremely enriching, I walked out of the theater hopeful, especially because of what is happening in our country right now. A movie that explores what it means to be black, with an almost all black cast, directed by a black director. Finally! This film wasn’t just a film. It had something important to say and I think it will have a positive impact on society. This film embraces diversity, shines a light on feminism, equality, the need for solidarity and the legacy of Colonialism. In history, there has been art/artists that have impacted the world – Shakespeare for example. This film and everyone involved will go down as history making and world

In the italian neoralism era they did the same thing but with a different culture and background. To add on they shot the film in real locations just like Roberto Rossellini, Luchino Visconti, and Vittorio were doing. I also witnessed scenes where breaking the fourth wall came back to black cinema. When i seen all this in action i knew right away where and from it came from.

    It brought in great interviews, whether they were that of townspeople or official representatives, the interviews were solid and differed enough to make each one stand on it's own. The filmmakers found a way to follow the narrative with it's statistics and interviews blending in a way to keep my attention without me wanting to shoot myself in the face due to boredom, which is great. The way ethos, pathos, and logos weaved together for the end product was certainly admirable. I wasn't concerned with the issue at all when going into the interview, but if I'm going to be honest, I still don’t really care. I understand the issues and what they're doing to both the world and it's inhabitants, but I think bottled anything has become so integrated into society.

    It baffles me to see how these men, women, and children were treated as animals. I ask the question, how could these owner treat the slaves like this and not have any regrets or fears as to what would happen to them when they die. It also made me think on the slaves who were not born slaves that came from Africa who did know the language, customs, and how they were up rooted from their lives. I always thought that slaves were separated from their families because one of the family members did wrong. This film taught me that that was not always the reason some slave owners sold members of the slave families just because they could.

    Overall, if I had to give a grade to Metropolis, I would give it an A+. This is because the movie was so ahead of its time and every scene seemed like a piece of art. The set designs were beautiful, such as the visuals of the colosseum where Freder ran in the beginning of the film and also in the Tower of Babylon. Through these scenes, I became immersed in this future world, and I was wishing I could see more about the life of the citizens in metropolis. The film also had great themes that set the framework for future movies such as Blade Runner, according to Kenneth Turan.
