Luckily, Kat (yes, she was back in Jamaica for a bit) had the good sense to grab Monday’s tickets right then and there. Much as I expected, the majesty of Wakanda blew me away. Credit to the creative team behind the film; the visual overload alone was worth the ticket price. What I didn’t expect, but I should have, was that I’d fan-girl for none other than Princess Shuri.
