It seems the soon to be released Marvel superhero movie Black Panther is going to set the box office on fire. Considering the rave reviews from early screenings and a perfect 100 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes, there is no doubt that the MCU film is going to be a blockbuster hit.
As of this writing, Black Panther currently sits at 100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes out of 61 positive reviews and zero negative. Notably, the score is expected to change slightly as the Marvel Studios superhero movie debuts in North American theaters on February 16. By that time, more than 300 reviews are expected to pour in. The film has got some amazing reviews from top critics on Rotten Tomatoes.
“Black Panther celebrates its hero’s heritage while delivering one of Marvel’s most all-around appealing standalone installments to date,” wrote Variety’s Peter Debruge, while Peter Travers of Rolling Stone wrote, “Say this about Black Panther, which raises movie escapism very near the level of art: You’ve never seen anything like it in your life.”
If the aggregated Rotten Tomatoes rating remains the same after Black Panther’s February 16 debut, it will become the first-ever title across both the Marvel Cinematic Universe or the DC Extended Universe to earn a perfect score. Wonder Woman (DC), which got a perfect 100 score on Rotten Tomatoes early in the review process, ended up at 92 percent, while Captain America: Civil War ended up at 91 percent.
Black Panther is the first black superhero movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Directed by Ryan Coogler, the film stars Chadwick Boseman playing the role of T’Challa / Black Panther alongside Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Martin Freeman, Angela Bassett, Danai Gurira, Daniel Kaluuya, Sterling K. Brown, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, John Kan, Andy Serkis and Florence Kasumba.
The 18th title in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Black Panther, is expected to fetch more than $130 million in its opening weekend. The film will hit theater screens on February 16, 2018.
