This weekend might be all about Black Panther, Marvel's much - anticipated, 18th entry in its ten - years - and - counting cinematic universe, but that's no reason to ignore the other visually expansive, comedic delight arriving in in multiplexes: Oscar - winner Nick Park's (Chicken Run, Wallace & Gromit)
latest foray into stop - motion wizardry (his first as sole director), Early Man, an unexpected, if no less welcome, ode to the joys, excitement, and wonders of the «beautiful game» («soccer» to less enlightened Americans, European

football match that's almost as thrilling and exhilarating as
watching Real Madrid vs. FC Barcelona or Manchester United vs. Manchester City play in front of paying fans (i.e., in the real world with real - world stakes).
