Scarlett Johansson finally gets her solo film in Black Widow. Set after Civil War, with the Avengers broken up, Natasha Romanoff (aka Black Widow) teams up with her estranged foster sister when she learns that the Black Widow program has been reconstituted and attempts to find the facility and take it down. Johansson gives a solid performance and is backed by Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Rachel Weisz, and Ray Winstone. Unfortunately, the story isn’t really about Black Widow and little is learned about her. And of course Disney forces in their liberal politics in rather blatant and obtrusive ways. Still, the action-sequences are incredible exciting and features some impressive fight choreography. The special effects are also especially good, and there are some fun bits of humor. It’s a bit disappointing (given its potential), but Black Widow delivers all of the thrills and adventure that has come to be expected from Marvel.
