it has the same weaknesses as BP1 - i.e. building tension, pacing, weak action, weak use of special effects.
Was the action weak most of the movie? T'Challa vs M'Baku was dope, casino fight, car chase, his fight with Killmonger during waterfall were good.

You mention pacing only cause it wasnt a fight every 15 mins like other other Marvel films.

no



yes and the reviews onlne so far
Hm I only saw one reaction that said the action was bad. The other ones said it was good in that department. Brandon Davis said Coogler stepped up his game. I guess what constitutes a good action scene will vary between people. I also thought the action was weak in the first and hoping for better with this one. That's one thing that a superhero film has to get right if nothing else.

shang chi director got a promotion away from MCU-niche because he showed a maturity in the way shang chi was constructed.

BP2 action in the trailers looks just like BP1. focus on the dora and you will see what I mean.

BP1 dora vs. killmonger was bad fight structure and choreography and BP2 does the same type of thing with the dora (during the boat attack).



I'm not expecting john wick, matrix or kill bill levels but it's not good.

This is trash.

I'm not feeling Namor being Mexican either.
What makes it trash? out of curiosity.

Namor being Mexican is probably the most interesting route they have taken the character. Would people feel much better if he was a White dude flooding Wakanda? I feel like this was no-win situation, because any race you make the guy, people here will complain.

Making sure not to hear any piece of the score. Need that shyt to be extra fresh on the ears upon opening week. Though I’ve heard nothing but great things regarding Namor’s theme. :ahh:
