Damn. He right tho
See you already running from twitter attacking this movie…..
Tsk tsk tsk
Damn. He right tho
Optically
That would’ve been a bad decision and a very bad choice.
I hate to say it but you know how we black people be sometimes
We overthink & over complain and someone would’ve jumped to
“Fiegie/Marvel being racist!”
“Damn they can’t trust a black man to make good fight scenes/ his movie??”
“Fiegie would’ve NEVER done this to {insert white director}”
Black Twitter/Fake angry Coli Mob and Dem Clown Stan’s LOOKING for weakness would’ve pounced on that.
And you’s a good stand up dude…. But I don’t fully trust or feel confident you would’ve stepped up and been like “hey guys, no don’t be like that…. That was my choice and what I wanted” and defended that move.
You wouldve been like George Bush in that classroom when he was told about 9/11
Or like Trump watching the attack on the capital
Why she got finger waves on her mask?
Who greenlit this? This looks like some shyt Zordon and Alpha 5 came up with.
I feel as though I have to judge this movie on a curve. The cast and crew were in an incredibly tough bind of trying to find a way to honor Chadwick/T'Challa (there was no need to recast) while keeping it moving. The cast and crew should feel immensely proud of the movie they created as they honored their friend very well.
With that being said,
The movie was just "ok." The action sequences outside of the first fight between Okoye and Attuma were forgettable.
If anything, the length of the movie is what hurt it for me. The longer it went on, the more I started watching and reflecting on the movie through a critical lens. By the time of the third act/final fight, I slowly started to tune out. At the same time however, although I felt the movie was too long, off the top of my head, I can't think of a specific sequence I would cut. I thought the exploration of Talokan was wonderful, although as an aside, having a trailer for Avatar 2 before the movie made the cgi feel weak.
Seeing as though this is a movie centered on grief, and how we as humans process it, this movie needed a lot of "heart". Angela Bassett was the "heart" of this movie. She carried the movie until she died. I noticed that after said spoiler, the movie seemed to go off the rails, along with my enthusiasm while watching.
It was also after aforementioned spoiler, that I got the feeling that this is where Chadwick was truly missed in regards to the story. Once Killmonger made his appearance, it gave me a sense that the original story would've centered around the almighty noble T'Challa having to fight his inner demons of seeking vengeance as a measure to cope with Namor killing his mother. That would've made the Killmonger cameo incredible as you would have to imagine that T'Challa would've went to the ancestral place looking for his mother, only to find the cousin he killed. Having Shuri see Killmonger didn't move the needle at all for me.
Speaking of not moving the needle, Riri's presence was underwhelming to me, along with Michaela Cole's character.
Namor, Lupita (), and Danai were great in this. Letitia was okay, although her fits were dope.
Overall, it was an okay movie given the circumstances involved.
7/10 or ***out of *****
NoDid Coogler zoom in on that ass tho?
i liked the fact that namor wasnt buff as shyt. hes a swimmer and swimmers are lean people . Also in a weird way, he looked more powerful being a smaller guy who was tossing shyt left and right, insted of being yokedJust got out.
Movie was entertaining....I will give it that.
But...Coogler does not have the sensibility for big budget action movies. Action..fighting....camera movement and cgi was a rehash from BP1.
There was no memorable action or fighting in the movie at all.
And whoever let Namor come to set looking like he only been doing push ups needs to get fired.
This dude did not look like he went to the gym at all for this movie....it was embarrassing given the scale of these movies.
6.5/10.....throw Coogler in the bushes or just do some drama movies going forward.
Oh and Killmonger should have been BP from the jump
