WhatsOn editorial Tama has selected this week’s top movies for you. Who doesn’t enjoy movies? Watching movies is the finest way to kill time, especially when the weekend is just around the corner. Holidays require some downtime, so if there’s a movie on the side, why not watch it? Without further ado, let’s look at the films on the list.

It was then made available for general public viewing on November 11, 2022.
The heart of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” the sequel to the wildly successful “Black Panther,” is genuine, even though the whole thing has a contrived feel to it. The proceedings start with King T’Challa’s recent death and funeral. Following the black casket with the crossed arms of the Wakanda salute and the silver insignia of the Black Panther mask, Shuri (Letitia Wright) and Queen Ramonda (Angela Bassett) are clad in white.
