What did rotten tomatoes give Wakanda Forever? ›

Fortunately, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has gotten mostly positive reviews, earning an 85 percent critic score and 77 percent audience score (from "all audiences"). Black Panther: Wakanda Forever's reviews continue the MCU's almost-flawless streak of "Fresh" Rotten Tomatoes scores.

Rotten Tomatoes and the Tomatometer score are the world's most trusted recommendation resources for quality entertainment. As the leading online aggregator of movie and TV show reviews from critics, we provide fans with a comprehensive guide to what's Fresh – and what's Rotten – in theaters and at home.

There is so much more to M'Baku than the fact that he's a veggie, but the moment in "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" where he chomps on a carrot while learning about Namor (Tenoch Huerta Mejía) sort of encapsulates his character.

The Heart-Shaped Herb is a plant native to Wakanda that was traditionally consumed by those who held the mantle of the Black Panther in order to obtain enhanced physical abilities.

The 1st Black Panther movie was amazing, but Wakanda Forever was an utter disappointment! I'd regret watching this movie if it was completely free! I have never seen such a horrible Marvel film in my lifetime! The action scenes saved me from walking out of the theater!

To date, Leave No Trace holds the site's record, with a rating of 100% and 252 positive reviews.

If 60% of reviews are positive, the movie is given a “Fresh” status, but if positive reviews fall below that benchmark, it is deemed “Rotten.” A popular piece of media will typically fall between the 70-90% range, but rarely, a project will receive a 100% score. This means every last review from critics was positive.

As the reviews of a given film accumulate, the Rotten Tomatoes score measures the percentage that are more positive than negative, and assigns an overall fresh or rotten rating to the movie. Scores of over 60 percent are considered fresh, and scores of 59 percent and under are rotten.

She also likely never wanted to be the leader of a nation and instead put her focus on her scientific research. She doesn't seem to mind letting M'Baku take that position instead. In fact, the leader of the Jabari was probably given Shuri's blessing to succeed Queen Romanda after her death.

Loosely translated from Latin, it means "Empire King." As such, the line serves as a dynamic reference to the anti-hero's comics origins while also giving him an epic counter to the classic Wakandan phrase in the MCU. Related: Black Panther 2's MCU Timeline: How Long After Endgame Is It Set?

Why does Shuri see Killmonger? ›

In the end, Shuri's interaction with Killmonger acts as more than just a highly-anticipated cameo. Finding Killmonger on the throne and hearing his violent point of view gives her the chance to confront her own emotions, no matter how dark they are.

Shuri of course uses the herb herself to become the next Black Panther, but after Wakanda and Talokan call a truce, she plants her samples of the heart-shaped herb so that a new hero can take on the Black Panther title when her time is concluded.

Talokanil Herb is a Vibranium-infused plant that sprouted from a blue rock. The Talokanil Herb was consumed by the last members of a Mayan tribe living in Zama Village in order to be healthy and safe from diseases brought by Spanish colonizers, but the Herb ended up transforming them into the first Talokanil.

As the Wakandans strive to embrace their next chapter, the heroes must band together with the help of War Dog Nakia and Everett Ross and forge a new path for their nation. Rated PG-13 for sequences of strong violence, action and some language.
