'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' review: Powerful emotions drive uneven sequel


'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' nails its emotional tributes to Chadwick Boseman, but feels like what it is - a film rewritten to compensate for the loss of its biggest star. – Photos: Walt Disney Studios Malaysia

KIing T’Challa is dead. The Black Panther is no more. With Wakanda reeling from the death of its king, Queen Mother Ramonda (Angela Basset) and Princess Shuri (Leticia Wright) face a struggle to protect their country from external forces eyeing its resources, especially its exclusive supply of the nigh-invulnerable metal Vibranium.

But there is another threat, one that comes from the deepest parts of the ocean – an underwater nation called Talokan, led by its enigmatic mutant king, Namor (Tenoch Huerta). And now Wakanda must deal with its grief and get ready to defend itself from arguably the only other nation capable of rivaling them in terms of technological might and fighting power.
