The action scenes are remarkable and the fight choreography is award winning caliber. The settings and cinematography is outstanding and there is impressive use of lighting. The villains were also excellent as is the outcome of each of them. You feel for every character and if anything happens to anyone, you feel personally hurt. The acting is out of this world across the board. The character's inner demons are well portrayed as is their struggle to overcome them. The writing is remarkable, thorough and very impressive. This movie has so much depth and contains a great primary plot and even better sub plots. This movie is directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood (Love & Basketball) and stars Viola Davis (The Help), Thuso Mbedu (The Underground Railroad), Lashana Lynch (No Time to Die), Sheila Atim (Doctor Strange: In the Mouth of Madness), John Boyega (Star Wars: Episode VII-IV) and Jimmy Odukoya (Mamba's Diamond). A new recruitment class to the female army brings brashness, new ideas to defend the kingdom, and the female leader's ghosts back to the forefront. Meanwhile, those who do believe strongly in the slave trade look to march on the kingdom and bring them down.

She strongly urges him to avoid the slave trade and find alternative methods of riches. The leader of the female Army has a past that haunts her but the respect of her king, enough to be on his council. The storyline follows an African kingdom with a new(er) king in 1823 who posses the only female army in Africa. The Woman King (2022) is a movie my wife and I caught in theatres last night.
