Film reviews
Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh, Rachel Weisz, David Harbour
Following on from 2019’s Captain Marvel, the Marvel franchise gets only its second female-fronted action extravaganza – and it’s about time!
Scarlett Johansson returns as Natasha Romanoff, aka the Black Widow, a trained Russian spy and assassin proficient in hand-to-hand combat.
The ever-reliable Johansson is joined by Florence Pugh
( Little Women, Midsommar) in this exciting and at times old-fashioned action blockbuster with less slick computer graphics than we’re used to, more stunts, and the chance for Johansson to flex her acting muscles.
