Movie Review: Wakanda Forever (2022)

It was a dark and stormy night… well no, it was a pleasant and cool night but watching this movie, it was dark in the theatre and stormy in my mind because I have a very confused reaction to this movie as a whole. Compared to all the phase 4 movies, it was 100% better,…
