How to Watch ‘Black Panther’ Free

By : Kofi Kafui Sampson on 30 Jan 2019, 09:46

The 91st Academy Awards are less than a month away, which means it’s about time to get caught up on the nominated movies. Many contenders made their theatrical debut in December and are still available on the big screen (“Mary Poppins Returns,” “If Beale Street Could Talk” and “Mary Queen of Scots,” to name a few).

Others, like “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “A Star Is Born,” debuted earlier but expanded to more screens after snagging promising awards and nominations. And then you have the films that are getting revival runs with a look ahead to the Oscars: “Black Panther” will screen for free in early February and “BlacKkKlansman” returned to 33 states this month. Below is more information on where to watch those and other nominees.

Quick plot summary: The title superhero (Chadwick Boseman) and his rival, Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan), battle for the throne of Wakanda.

Where it’s playing: Tickets are free at select AMC theaters Feb. 1-7. For specific theaters, go to weticketit.com/blackpanther.

What it’s nominated for: Seven Oscars, including best picture.

What our critic said: “A jolt of a movie, ‘Black Panther’ creates wonder with great flair and feeling partly through something Hollywood rarely dreams of anymore: myth.” Read the review.
