when told from a truly Black narrative. I loved it!!!!! First time, I was just watching. Hoping it would live up to the early hype and have the same, if not better, quality than previous Marvel films. It did. We went to a late show and my wife and I stayed up 'til 2 a.m. talking about the subtleties, diversity in character, and the narrative if a Black superhero lived today in the age of colonialism, racism, and Black genocide. It was a good story and you actually cared about the characters, what they represented, and each one's end game.

We plan on going again tomorrow and now that I know the quality is there, I will enjoy it even more for what it is. A story from our perspective. Loved the optics and storytelling.
