The "Black panther wasn't that good" take is the new movie hipster line that has to be discussed

[O.Red]

I think Black Panther is a victim of extreme hype. I saw it twice in theaters with my family, and we all love it. The second time as we left the theater, I knew this movie wouldn’t hold up over time because people () would nitpick the shyt out of it.
I will say I prefer the Russo’s vision of T’Challa over Coogler’s, the action scenes were lacking but Killmonger’s challenge from an emotional standpoint is damn near perfect.
.

Yea you kinda laid out the pros and cons

Ryan Coogler excels at aesthetics and dialogue. His movies look COOL and this is a huge reason why BP resonates so much. The wardrobe and designs with the shots and music is

I also prefer the Russo's version of Tchalla because yea Coogler cut his nuts off in BP. Also we all know how proficient they are with action. A Coogler/Russos team up would've made for a movie

Movie was good but the CGI was awful. I have no idea what they were thinking. Especially when you know Disney/Marvel has crazy bread.

[Premeditated]

it was basically like most Marvel movies

entertaining but microwavable

I want Ryan to direct a movie with a complex plot next

I’m surprised people didn’t like MBJ’s performance. His dialogue felt a little forced at times but he was the highlight of the movie for me.

Agreed. “‘weeks’ I don’t need weeks, just someone to cut me out these chains.” Was delivered terribly, and there are a few moments where the dialogue feels weird, and out of place.

I gave it a B+. Saw it twice in theaters. Hoping for more action and better cgi for the next movie. Definitely will miss Boseman.

When nikkas show up at the movie theater in dashikis (men,women)...you know something going on

....and taking family pictures in front of the movie poster IN said dashikis.

Like, people was really wildin' out.

Real shyt

It’s a B movie at best.

I don't think they would've gotten the feel of Wakanada and the royalty of it as well however. Nothing about Asgard feels magnetic and they're GODS.

Spot on. They would have done a better job with the action and having Tchalla more catlike and fluid with his style. But the main things that make the movie great I don't think they could have captured. Things related to the diaspora and black culture, they wouldn't have been able to play those notes properly. And those are the things that make the movie great. It has moments, themes and depth that you didn't see in any other MCU film. It deserves ask it's praise, even with the poor child and the textbook Marvel third act. It still managed to secure classic moments even during that low point of the film. The collective gasp in the theatre when Killmonger dropped his last lines is unlike any other in theater experience I've had with any of the other films.

It had it issues.
The CGI was bad, the fight choreography was just ok, and the climax battle felt generic. Everything with Killmonger was dope and Klaw should've lived up to the climax. Third act should've only consisted of Killmonger, Klaw, and Black Panther, imo.

They could have bushed that whole last fight and it wouldn't have made a difference to the previous two hours... They just wanted to go full Marvel at the end.

if you want a classic.. u can't really be going full Marvel.

That sounds like a very generic marvel ending, and would take away from the entire kingdom aspect of Wakanada. In fact...that sounds like winter soldier...I've seen winter soldier

 

[Reptile]

I honestly didnt like the movie

 

[boriquaking]

The movie did one thing that very few films have been able to do, it made the fictional world into a living, breathing, realistic place. As a film I think the ending left something to be desired. I voted an A.

actually I was thinking Civil War. A closed in and more personal ending that dealt with their differences more so than the actual fight
