Redeems the superhero movie genre...

Rating: 8/10 (23 February 2018)

Just as you were getting bored of superhero movies, this comes along with its originality, humor and engaging story. This is an amazing family film with pace and interesting characters. It is fine for young kids, say from around 10 years old, and also fun for adults.
The story is one of a King leading his people through the challenges of connecting with a wider world, and dealing with internal conflict and turmoil. At its heart it is a condemnation of hatred.
One thing I liked is the movie had lots of humor and light moments. The film maker made the right choice by not being too edgy or "dark". The female actors played strong characters pivotal to the story, and Letitia Wright was a particular stand-out. The action and special effects where on point, and music and sound design especially good. A visual feast, and a must-see.
