b'Put on your catsuit and your tactical vest, because we\\u2019re about to talk about Marvel\\u2019s \\u201cBlack Widow,\\u201d which some of us saw in theaters. (And some of us didn\\u2019t.) This is a movie delayed from pre-COVID times, it\\u2019s the first Marvel movie in the Disney+ era, and it\\u2019s set during 2016\\u2019s \\u201cCaptain America: Civil War\\u201d\\u2014conveniently before the main character dies. With all that, it\\u2019s also a film that puts its title heroine at the center of a \\u201cMission: Impossible\\u201d style story that\\u2019s also, strangely, about a couple of particularly messed-up families.'
