It was good. I appreciated that while it had humor, it wasnt as overbearing as Thor Ragnarok or Guardians 2. Also was more political than I expected, but was done tactfully and nuanced, which I also thought was cool.
I dont think it was the best, but it was better than a lot of the MCU
I’m glad I read this. I’ve been kinda afraid all the hype was just a bunch of social justice dick riding because it’s a black superhero
There is a bit of social justice dick riding. I dont think its a perfect movie. The pacing is a little weird at times, it does suffer from some typical super hero tropes, and there was never a moment that completely blew my mind with how awesome it was. But it was solid. I still rank Civil War, Guardians 1, Winter Soldier, Iron Man 1, and Thor Ragnarok above it. But Id say its better than the others in the MCU.
I also know very little about Black Panther in the comics other than he marries Storm. So I cant comment about how they depicted him, Killmonger, or Wakanda in comparrison to the comics.
Black Panther was lit. One of the best marvel movies for sure. Idk where id place it exactly but holy shit what a film. Killmoger was such a good villain
Busy weekend, but still managed to catch Black Panther. I dug it. It definitely had a different feel than the other movies. It didn't depend on over the top action or humor, or a killer soundtrack of old hit songs to put it over, or the same "go save the girl from the bad guy" plot lines. It did it's own thing, which after the sheer number of superhero movies that have been put out is pretty refreshing that any of it can still feel new.
So many other franchises out there could benefit from Kevin Feige.
Holy fuck Black Panther was fucking awesome \m/ I loved it. The social/political undertones are important and usually subtle so I never felt like I was getting clobbered over the head with them. Loved that blame was never placed on one side and I feel like they handled that aspect of the film very well. Wakanda looked beautiful, the cinematography overall all was great. The fight scenes were fucking fantastic and the humor was great without being over the top (this was the first time in my life the "What Are Those?" Joke made me laugh ) ). I actually really enjoyed the soundtrack as well and the performances were fantastic. Michael B. Jordan was phenomenal and I enjoyed every minute Gurira and Wright were on screen. Fantastic character writing/development. Easily better than like 60% of the MCU. Easily an 8/10
