BLACK PANTHER (2018) Movie Reaction! | First Time Watch! | Chadwick Boseman | Michael B. Jordan

[@silentassason]

And he did this movie all while fighting his own battle that no one around him knew about. RIP to a true king.

[@Time4utube]

He live forever on Film.

[@Sidragrosm]

"RIP..?" Naaah! The King merely took up His proper position. Like Wakanda..? He is FOREVER! ✊🏽

[@missright9159]

And T'Challa's resurrection from death chokes me up in retrospect. Like he/Chadwick was so strong, if only they could beat the odds one last time 😥

[@Sidragrosm]

@@missright9159 THAT'S what makes Him The one, The ONLY true King. There will never be a better one. ✊🏽

[@fosixsix225]

I hate when I see reactors finally get the Black Panther reaction because all I can think about when they had a pic shared right before he died. Everyone was saying he looked bad, and it kinda pissed me off because you never know what anyone is going through. Then about a week or two later, he died that fast.

[@K7CG2004]

This is the first MCU film to win 3 Academy Awards and to also get nominated for Best Picture! It won Original Score, Costume Design and Production Design!

[@AshLee92490]

I'm still surprised Wakanda Forever's score didn't even get nominated. I think it may be even better than the first one's score. I remember immediately playing it in my car when I left the theatre. I still listen to it in the car sometimes. Ludwig went crazy on the Black Panther scores...

[@davidfortuin4146]

Put some respect on Ryan Coogler's name. 👏🏾 🫡

[@EVGriffinJr]

And it deserve too. The only other MCU film I can think of that should’ve been in consideration is Captain America: the winter soldier. Black Panther is a true classic!

[@blacklite911]

Good movie but the CGI fight at the end was a little plastic looking.

[@EVGriffinJr]

[@andrewjacksonbr]

Cancer took his life, but not his light. May generations remember his work, passion, and purpose. Rest in Peace Chadwick, forever.

[@ChrisTheAspergerGuy]

One of the things I like about the Wakandans is that despite having highly advanced technology, they don't abuse it. They have the maturity, humility, and intelligence to use it for good.

[@BluEx22329]

Killmonger was a good villain because it was understandable how he got there. Even if you dont fully agree, you can see his side.

[@dillionplm4024]

Not just that he actually change the hero’s point of view because he had a lot of points of what wakanda was doing wrong

[@fantasma8253]

That’s usually the makings of any good villain in any movie or of show. That’s the formula to make that specific kind of villain and not the senseless evil villain who’s bad for the sake of being bad, it’s too boring

*“Now more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth. More connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis, the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another, as if we were one, single tribe.” - King T’Challa* I wish every single world leader and politician throughout the world would watch this movie and listen to this speech. Too many times throughout history have people rallied others on the basis of division through racism, sexism, and religion. The ones who make real and lasting change are the ones who follow the same philosophy T’Challa embraces in the end.

[@roberthaley3254]

"Wakanda is strong enough to help others and protect ourselves at the same time." Absolutely amazing. Nakia is one of my favorite MCU characters, and I appreciate that the viewpoint she has from the beginning is what T'Challa adopts. Killmonger's soul plane scene and T'Challa's second soul plane scene...those scenes tell you the whole movie.

[@The_1and_OnlyUce]

Michael B Jordan did a good job portraying the hurt/emotion that gets buried in anger and temper because it made him feel more human and he was a child underneath who deeply missed his father. Notice how when he was buried in the ritual and returned home in the ancestral plain the younger version of himself wasn't seen shedding a tear for his dad but then cuts to his older current version in tears that contrast was subtle but is deep because it shows he never truly dealt with it and because he was so hurt he was hardened and embarked on a mission but when seeing his dad he couldn't help but shed a tear and the true kicker is that both father and son went out the same way impaled through the chest by family the same family who they believe makes them feel isolated and lost. Such good writing for me Kilmonger was the best part of the movie he was so fascinating that ending line of "just bury me in the ocean with my ancestors that jumped from the ships, cuz they knew death was better than bondage" is so quotable and deep he wanted to go out his way on his own terms. Another fascinating thing was how even tho he was angered by wakanda and how their isolationist mentality got his father killed and ignores millions of others that are down on their luck despite all that he still is aware and appreciates the African culture like in the museum when he rebukes the lady who thought one of the pieces was fulah and says its wakandan and that line " how do you think your answers got their hands on these did they ask or did they take like they took everything else" shows how quick he is to defend the African artifacts and his constant references of the oppressed and the oppressors and conquerers and conquered all ties back to slavery and how Africans have a history of being oppressed and being underlooked which makes his character admirable and understandable. Again such good writing in this movie.

[@fredoshiesty2025]

This was VERY VERY VERY well said ✋🏽🤚🏽

[@XY1RI]

so beautifully worded

[@fredoshiesty2025]

@ rightttt

[@davidreynolds9857]

Yesss every bit of this, killmonger is the definition a nuanced antagonist. He has so many redeemable qualities despite the bad things he's done and you can empathize with him because of his hurt. It's not pure evil, he's the hero of his own story

[@gobyg-major2057]

Ancestors*

[@Andy666TheBeast]

Everyone's like Killmonger's right, T'Challa changed his worldview because of him. And while it's true that Killmonger was the driving incident, T'Challa ended up doing what Nakia said at the beginning of the movie. Nakia was the true peaceful visionary of the story.

[@adrianomoraes5992]

You can see how difficult is to recast because Chadwick Bose an did such a good job. His T'Chala is humane, fun, relatable but also a very noble fighter and hero. You see he doesn't shy away from a fight but neither is proud or revengeful against Killmonger. Ideally he wanted to rehabilitate and bring him back to the fold. It beats any grim n' gritty antihero kiIIing his enemies for me.

[@ryans7097]

The best world building in a Marvel movie. This movie is so good with so many cool characters, themes, and features. RIP Chadwick Boseman.

[@thechad4485]

I remember sitting in theaters and watching the opening scene of T’Challa flying over Wakanda. My wife can attest to this, but I started sobbing. Black Panther was one of my favorite heroes as a kid, and I was afraid that they wouldn’t do Wakanda justice. To see the city for the first time, done so beautifully, was more than I could handle. This is one of my favorite MCU movies, but it’s hard to capture that feeling of seeing it for the first time. I wish I could erase it from my memory to watch it again.

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

I love the world building they did in this movie. RIP Chadwick Boseman. Wakanda Forever

[@666blackcarbon9]

Outside of Black Panther, when I think of Chadwick Boseman, I think of him as Thoth from Gods Of Egypt. He was so damn good!! RIP to a real one✌🏾🖤👑🙏🏾

[@jananz]

Killmonger was a great antagonist, super relatable and a representation of the old African proverb of "the child who is not embraced by the village, will burn it down to feel its warmth". It's crazy when you realize that the child at the beginning asking his father to tell him the story of Wakanda is not a young T'Challa talking to King T'Chaka but actually a young N'Jadaka talking to his dad Prince N'Jobu, because he had never been to Wakanda.

[@twiglesstwig4196]

This was the first Celebrity I met.. and it hurts to see him gone, but this movie reminds me of how much of an AMAZING ACTOR HE IS! Rip Chadwick! As he said in what if zombies.. “Death is not the end, they are still with us, as long as we don’t forget them”

[@nobodyexceptme7794]

I forget how good of a job Coogler did w/ this movie. Can't wait to see what he cooks up for part 3.

[@Vulcanerd]

Everyone's given a chance to shine in this movie. T'Challa and Killmonger, of course, but Okoye, Nakia, Shuri, M'Baku, Ross, everyone.

[@anthonydean1743]

5:10 this was Michael B Jordan's 2nd time playing a Marvel comics character. He was the 2nd person to play Fantastic Four character Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch in the 2015, Chris Evans was the first to play him in two Fantastic Four movies.

[@nerdwatch1017]

I was so sad to hear when Chadwick Boseman passed away not just for his family but also because they were planning on making him a major leader in the MCU after avengers endgame. Then to hear he was going through chemotherapy and major pain at the same time why’ll training to be in peak shape to play this role. Showed his grit and will power a true mind over matter person

[@nugget3687]

Turning the character of man ape, who is typically a villain, into a good guy with morals who deeply cares about his people was such a good idea. M'Baku thy goat

[@fredoshiesty2025]

Rest In Heaven Chadwick 😢

[@dudeusmaximus6793]

CB just had this unbelieveable presence and commanding charisma that I've only seen in a handful of actors/actresses over the years. It would have been awesome to see where his acting wen if he had not been cut down so early in life.

[@Kidapollo92]

This movie shows a difference between a rival like in mbaku and an enemy in killmonger. Tchalla try to get Kilmonger to submit and yield like he did with mbaku. However, Erick was too driven and focused on his mission for revenge and anger.

[@lareh5501]

35:33 the deleted scene where they were alone and argued their positions to each other in the throne room was *_FIRE!_* Shame they cut it from the theatrical release.

[@Corey313]

Killmonger was the villain you understood and get where he was coming from and why he did what he did. This was and still is one of my favorite Marvel movies and my mom's too. I always enjoy your reactions Kristen

[@dylanhopkins5934]

Definitely one of my favorite movies in all of the MCU. It may still be in my top 3. The tone, the heart, the emotion, just the grand feel of it in total. It just hit on so many levels for me as not only a young Black man, but just as a fan of comics and superheroes period. This also came out around the same time I had just joined the military. So it was a really special time for me that year. Wakanda was absolutely beautiful and I wish we could've explored more of it in this movie. This movie felt very different from what the MCU usually does too. So many movies in the mcu lack this level of depth of heart and emotion in my opinion. Most of them feel more light hearted and silly, and while I enjoy some like that, I don't enjoy all. Sometimes I want my movie to actually be serious. I still had my nitpicks with the film, like the cgi being kinda bad in places, and I thought the action coulda been a tad better, but overall it was an amazing experience. Glad you enjoyed it too. RIP to a legend as well! Chadwick did an AMAZING job, and knowing what he was going through during this movie makes it 10 times better. Oh! And I'm still waiting on my solo player, open world, story driven game for Black Panther. He's way too cool of a character not to have his own game or something by now.

[@BatmanFan76]

This movie was of course another project unlike anything the MCU has ever made before, but in a major way. It made a billion at the box office, Marvel fans appreciated how amazing it was, it’s even the first MCU movie to be nominated for Best Picture. I do have to say, this movie is pretty great and it holds up very well. Aside from the clunky 3rd act, this was one solo Marvel movie that stood out from the rest. Wakanda forever!

[@jairusjackson7799]

Black Panther also succeed at something Disney has been called out for in failing time and time again as of recent years. It was diversity and inclusion done right, Disney has been called out for ruining it's own reputation with it's woke agenda. But Black Panther stands out, because despite being political and being a very inclusive film Black Panther is widely liked across the fandom. The biggest criticism I see people say is it's a bit overrated, but I rarely see anyone call it bad. Disney has tried to recreate the success of the Black Panther formula for years, and for the most part failed. Even Black Panther 2 didn't do as good as the first one without Chadwick.

[@havok6280]

Killmonger is a top 3 MCU antagonist for me. In the end, he made T'challa change his worldview, from isolationism to engagement. His means were questionable but his ends were justifiable.

[@Belnick6666]

he is just a racist that took it too the extreme, unsure about the comic book, but in this, killmonger is just a meeeh villain, but I guess it is cool to see a racist that is not white in a disney movie.....disney were even afraid to call man-ape for man-ape lol

[@DelRayDesi]

Yes, he had the right idea but the wrong execution

[@thedarkknight2221]

One of the greatest and most influential movies ever made. Black Panther was so influential that other African nations, in particular Ghana, are actually taking inspiration from Wakanda and investing more money in education, arts and technology than they ever have before.

[@Sherman1fan]

29:20 - I think M'Baku said "Witness the might of the Jabari, first hand" rather than "first time". Awesome (solo) reaction, don't change a thing, keep them coming! (If only you could visit Wakanda for real!) In the MCU, Ross was a top Air Force pilot before he was CIA, so he knew (and Shuri knew) he could pilot a plane/ship, that's why she said, "I made it American style for you, get in".

Iron Man and Black Panther are 1 n 2, in no particular order. 💯

[@SeedFactoryProject]

If you remember, Steve Rogers dropped Bucky off in Wakanda in an end-credit scene, to be frozen until they could get the Hydra conditioning out of his head. Apparently they have done that now. Andy Serkis (Claue) and Martin Freeman (Ross) were both in The Hobbit: Gollum and Bilbo respectively. Since most of the main cast are black in this film, they called themselves the "Tolkien white boys" on set 🙂 To show how far we still have to go in reaching equality, this film's director, Ryan Coogler, was arrested for "banking while black" in Atlanta, a city that is about half African-american. Marvel has often used Trilith Studios for MCU films. It is in the Atlanta metro. He was pulling out about $10,000 from his own account to pay a supplier who would only take cash. The teller thought it was some kind of scam, called the cops, and he was arrested until he could prove who he was.
