This one has kinda ok villain and nice Boseman acting, but besides that everything is mediocre or worse. Plot feels really generic (well it's origin story, so it could be predicted), CGI sometimes is really terrible (like last battle) and can't really find something more than lead actor charisma.
For me it's one of the worst MCU movies and top overrated film that I ever saw.… Expand

For me, the most overrated of all the Marvel movies. I understand the cultural significance of this movie, it just could of been less cheesy.

Now, this definitely is not the worst marvel movie by far. But it is not as big as the hype makes it out to be. It's not the first black led superhero movie, don't believe those lies.

It's not the first black led superhero movie, don't believe those lies. Blade 1-3 for example. It's not a diverse group, as it has the same problem just reversed. The Villian is pretty good. Chadwick Boseman did a good job, but really nothing special.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not every movie has to appeal to a mass audience, and Black Panther certainly does not. Black panther appeals to a very specific demographic, and does so incredibly well. It's just unfortunate that the rest of the movie was such a confusing, mediocre mess. To all the critics whomst called this movie a shocking masterpiece I agree with one part of what you've said. It certainly is shocking. A high budget, marvel blockbuster, funded by disney celebrating both african and african american culture so heavily is truly a shocking thing to see. Every single scene taking place in wakanda is dripping with culture, from the building designs, to the costume designs, to the music every single part of Wakanda feels like a celebration of a very rich and ancient culture.

And that's exactly why I feel as if I can't enjoy it. It's made and designed for people who know that culture, and I don’t. I just blatantly don't know anything about that culture. I have more respect for the movie for leaning so heavily into it and not dumbing it down for outsiders, however that does come with the trade off of turning away potential audience members. That and at times this movie is just outright racist. Having the only white man in wakanda treated basically like complete trash right up until the end of the movie. When he is first brought into wakanda, and he wakes up he's greeted by the one child calling him a “colonizer”. That's just straight up racist, it would be the same as Captain America waking up seeing Nick Fury for the first time and saying “hey slave”. The depiction of african culture truly is the only thing black panther has going for it, because the plot, characters, and action scenes are all some of marvel's worse. Actions scenes lack both tension and steaks as the black panther suit trivialises everyone our protagonist fights. Youtuber Filmento made a great video about this and if the action scenes felt lacking to you this offers a very solid explanation. The only character with any amount of depth are the two villains who I will get into later. Chadwick Boseman, may he rest in peace, plays a very boring character. His motivation and central driving force was introduced and explored more thoroughly in Civil War, leaving Black Panther with nothing to chew into. Side characters range from inoffensive to down right insufferable. I'd rather watch renowned scientist Johnny Sins do nothing but clean test tubes then spend any more time with Shuri. Overconfident, smug, arrogant she's got it all. When I said that the cultural depiction was the only bright spot of the movie I lied, the villains are actually pretty decent. Killmonger for lack of a better word, works quite well in this movie. However, quite under-appreciated Ulysses Klaue was the best villain of this movie. In a bubble he’s nothing special, crazy murderous russian psycho obsessed with a macguffin in a action movie might as well be a windows shortcut at this point. The only reason he shines so bright is the cast around him. Everyones so serious, and in comes this kill happy goofball blowing **** up and spouting off conspiracy theories about wakanda. As much as I critique Black Panther I must reiterate, I have a lot of respect for director Ryan Coogler and everyone who worked on this movie. They didn’t bend to the whims of Disney and the mass market. They made what they were clearly inspired to make without compromise, it's just a shame that I can’t appreciate is as much as many other people clearly have.… Expand

There were times during this movie that we're just straight-up cringe. For example, I get how Tony Stark could become a genius. The prodigy son of a famous inventor who was already extremely wealthy. And spent a lot of his lifetime trying to live up to his father.

The whole premise of the young lady who is basically Tony Stark 2.0 was just unbelievable. You can't expect the audience to buy into this type of character. And the same goes for Shuri. How do you bypass so many other qualified women and men and then choose to make Shuri BP. And then overnight she suddenly a master of martial arts....

At this point why not just Mass produce that flower if it can be made so easily and give those powers to everyone in the kingdom? You apparently don't need any prior qualifications.… Expand

I personally don't like the film a lot but I have to respect it for the themes it presents for the people of color being able to relate to. But as for everything else, I can't let it slide since it personally annoys me.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Black Panther, dirigida por Ryan Coogler, es una película que rompió barreras y dejó una huella importante en el cine. Con una representación poderosa y un impacto cultural significativo, esta película trajo consigo una historia importante y personajes memorables.

Uno de los puntos fuertes de Black Panther es su reparto excepcional. Chadwick Boseman brilla en el papel principal como T'Challa / Black Panther, llevando consigo una presencia carismática y una determinación inspiradora. El elenco de apoyo, incluyendo a Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright y Michael B. Jordan, también brinda actuaciones sólidas y creíbles, aportando profundidad y complejidad a sus respectivos personajes.

La película presenta una visión visualmente impresionante de Wakanda, el reino ficticio de Black Panther. La dirección de arte y el diseño de producción son exquisitos, capturando la riqueza cultural y la tecnología avanzada del lugar. Además, la banda sonora de Ludwig Göransson, que fusiona ritmos africanos con elementos modernos, complementa perfectamente la estética visual y añade una capa adicional de inmersión a la experiencia cinematográfica.

Black Panther también destaca por su mensaje poderoso sobre la identidad, el legado y la responsabilidad. La película aborda temas como el racismo, la opresión y la lucha por la igualdad de una manera audaz y significativa. Al situar la narrativa en el contexto de un país africano rico y avanzado, Black Panther desafía los estereotipos y ofrece una representación positiva de la cultura africana.

Sin embargo, a pesar de sus logros, Black Panther presenta algunas debilidades en términos de desarrollo de personajes y ritmo narrativo. Algunos de los personajes secundarios podrían haber sido más explorados, ya que parecen subutilizados y carecen de una motivación clara en la historia. Además, la trama a veces se siente desequilibrada, con momentos de ritmo lento que contrastan con secuencias de acción más emocionantes.

Aunque Black Panther se esfuerza por ofrecer una historia sólida y equilibrada, algunas decisiones narrativas y la forma en que se resuelven los conflictos pueden resultar predecibles. Aunque la película tiene momentos impactantes y emotivos, no logra mantener una coherencia narrativa constante en toda su duración.

En resumen, Black Panther es una película que dejó una marca importante en la industria cinematográfica y en la cultura popular. Con su representación inspiradora, su visión visualmente impresionante y su mensaje poderoso, la película se convirtió en un hito en la historia del cine de superhéroes. Aunque presenta algunas debilidades en términos de desarrollo de personajes y ritmo narrativo, sigue siendo una experiencia valiosa y significativa que vale la pena ver.… Expand
