Natasha Romanoff is one of my favorite MCU characters and Black Widow highlights why.
Scarlett Johansson is better than ever and this just makes me yearn for even more of her, but it also makes you truly appreciate the hero that Black Widow was. #BlackWidow

In particular, fans are loving the performance of Florence Pugh, whose Yelena Belova character looks set to take over the mantle of the MCU’s Black Widow for years to come:
Florence Pugh is a superstar, David Harbour is a scene stealer, and Rachel Weisz is Rachel Weisz. Cast is *excellent*.
Will #BlackWidow crack your Top 5? Probably not. But is it a worthy addition to the MCU and a touching, propulsive farewell to a beloved character?
Absolutely. pic.twitter.com/o9YWUiEuBN
