WRITING A REVIEW

1. Read the review of Black Panther. Do you know this film? Would you like to watch it?

Black Panther – Film Review

I’ve just seen the film Black Panther and I loved it. It’s a great film! It tells the story of T’Challa, a superhero who has some amazing powers. The story takes place in a country in the future that isn’t real. T’Challa has to defeat Killmonger, the ‘bad guy’. Killmonger wants to take control of the world and make terrible wars happen. Of course, the superhero wins in the end! The story doesn’t sound very exciting, but it is a fantastic film!

The main character is played by Chadwick Boseman, and Killmonger is played by Michael B. Jordan. The acting is brilliant! There are some really exciting action scenes and also some very funny parts. The costumes and special effects are amazing!

I think this is one of the best superhero films ever and everyone should definitely watch it! ***** [5 stars]
