Black Widow (12): Johansson and Pugh strike an attractive pose.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “Black Widow” (2021). Bob the Movie Man Rating: A long time in the waiting (again) but “Black Widow” is an excellent addition to the Marvel canon: almost a “Rogue One” in the series, taking us back to fill in some gaps after “Captain America: Civil War”.
