Black Panther 2018

Whether or not this is the best film Marvel Studios has made to date, and it is clearly in the discussion, it is by far the most thought-provoking.

when the critics are using words like "masterpiece", and Den Of Geek is proclaiming that it sits at the top of the MCU, you know a movie is over hyped, and boy, is Black Panther over hyped. the movie is OK, but certainly nowhere near being a masterpiece, and definatly nowhere near the top of the MCU, not even close. Chadwick Boseman is boring and lacks charisma, the female characters are much more interesting. Killmonger is a boring villain, Klaue was much more interesting, but god forbid a white villain be given the spotlight over a black villain. do i care about the plight of black people around the world? yes, do i care about someone's skin colour? no, its not the reason i watch a superhero movie. people are hyping this up into the movie they want it to be, rather than the movie it actually is.

The least entertaining of all the marvel movies.(including them things they had sold rights to in the 80s)
Unfunny comedy bits, undramatic drama, lame lion king/James bond /tribal wars story. Distracting greenscreen sets and people compositing. Loads of gun & spear play, but the only blood seen is on the wounded. Those killed (including a mean neck slice) must all be bloodless robots.?

There's 2 end scenes: one in middle & one at end of the credits. Barely 30 seconds long..

not much of a marvel movie fan. they're generally shallow on story, dialogue and action creativity, which all but kills a movie for me. but they can have decent visuals and humor. black panther is pretty much the same result, but with a unique world that gives it a new feel. overall, not impressed.

A letdown in what seemed to be the forever entertaining stream of Marvel movies. Everything about this plot was predictable and mostly un-entertaining. There were great parts to be sure, but overall I was severely underwhelmed.

Other Marvel movies with unoriginal writing at least had good, refreshing humor, and good acting. This lacked all of that. maybe 2 enjoyable parts to laugh at.

Black Panther is incredible -- a must see. It's complex and layered in both its characters and the problems at hand, which are dealt with wonderfully. This is easily one of the best marvel movies of all time. I'm glad to have booked tickets to see it a second time. The first time is an experience and the second to let the story wash over me.

Simply put, Black Panther is one of these films that include many things we love the most: the love, the culture, the bravery, the politics, the technologies, and above all, the exhilarating well-driven action that we love & cherish as it stands.

An excellent and entertaining movie, well acted and beautifully directed. Wakanda looked amazing and the action sequences were spectacular. Everything you want in a superhero movie.

One of the greatest movies of this 10 years of Marvel Studios. It just feels so mature, it's a superhero movie with a problem we all can relate and a badass villain we actually can understand. The cast was brilliant, and I love the way they portrayed wakanda. It's beautiful, it's vibrant, it shows culture and tradition in a way I never saw marvel doing. And they nailed the soundtrack! I mean, Kendrick Lamar and all the artists did an amazing job and I was very pleased to see the music from the album being played throughout the movie (specially "Opps". What a track, what a scene!)

Also, Black Panther is a better Civil War movie than "Civil War". And the scene with the fight for the throne was SO TENSE. I was actually worried about T'Challa losing and Killmonger taking the throne. The plot was great and it got me more involved than any other marvel movie except, perhaps, for Winter Soldier.

Overall, I can't wait to see more from Wakanda and its characters.

I was impressed with how well-made this movie was. The storytelling was tight, the production was sleek and the acting was great. Like the Captain America films, the plot was very political, and made me care about the supporting characters. What makes this Marvel’s best film is that you could clearly feel that there was an outstanding filmmaker behind it committed to making an elite movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

loading replies

I want to start this by saying that “Black Panther” is a very important film in terms of representation. This is also one of the only movies I have ever seen that introduces the audience to a new culture that feels like I could actually described afterwards. The soundtrack is amazing and really helps the transitions feel smooth and adds to the action sequences.

However this movie has a pacing issue that results in it feeling like two films that were pushed together. The second half of this movie is definitely better than the first for the simple reason that Michael B. Jordan gets to shine as killmonger, one of the best villains that the series has had so far. The casting in this movie is brilliant with the interactions between Boseman and Jordan towards the end being what is most memorable about the experience. The pacing issues cannot be overlooked however and the fight scenes were a little disappointing given Coogler’s previous work on “Creed” A very enjoyable film overall and a welcome addition to the MCU.

loading replies

I don’t understand how this movie can be so universally praised. For me, this is the weakest movie yet in the MCU. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t anything extraordinary either. Too bad, since I thought Black Panther was the highlight of the last Captain America movie.

The most overrated piece of crap I have ever seen in my entire life!

loading replies

It's times like this that I wish Trakt had a .5 system. At times the film is very good, exciting, and visually stylish. At other times, it's a little slow and cliched. Still, I am upping my score because it does do a lot of things new, despite the odd cliche, and Black Panther is quite unlike any of the Marvel heroes we have yet seen. The way Marvel continues to add fresh themes and styles to their movies is something DC needs to learn from. Definitely a good movie then, but don't expect the explosive action found in other films in this series. And that, perhaps, is a good thing!

This film made me not want to watch any more marvel films... Nothing happened in this film that was worth making a film about. Basically a dude thought he was great at dressing up as an animal and being king of a place that didn't exist, until some other dude took it from him, only to lose it again to the original dude. Literally a two hour movie about who could be king, not a very memorable film at all.

Do not recommend.

I don't know what I dislike most about this movie: it's racist depictions of warring tribes fighting with spears played by Westerners affecting stereotypical fake African accents, or riding armoured CGI rhinos... Whichever way you look at it it's not good.

I really wanted to watch this movie because everyone was talking about it and saying how amazing it is. After watching it I have to admit that I was rather disappointed. It's great to finally watch a movie that is not 99% white but in general I was not such a huge fan of the whole plot. It was a fine movie but I'd not praise it as much.
Maybe it's again because I'm not a huge super heroes movie fan…

Good casting. Good acting. Decent story. But way too much stylistically that was straight out of Disney and even Star Wars, especially in the first act. It was enough to pull me out of the story at times when it was particularly blatant. Also, the CGI was consistently good except for the green screen scenes with a nature background, at which point it was consistently bad. In short, this was a decent Marvel outing that ended up being a bit disappointing because all of the hype had really raised my expectations. I will surely like it more the next time that I watch it since I'll be approaching things from a more realistic frame of reference.

loading replies

the film's good, but i'm now officially confirmed that superhero/action movies are not my type. the film got me at its first half where wakanda and african tribes' culture were introduced,includings their rituals, costumes, sounds and music. But the rest, like I said, is good but no. They have to do better than that to impress me, one who never sets high hopes for action genre.
P/S: like everyone has said, the storyline is that good.

loading replies

I liked the movie. It emerged us in the African culture. However I think it is a little bit too political for my taste. I want to go to the movies and forget about all the politics we hear all day long. Apart from that - stunning visuals. And Black Panther's sister stole the show! This movie was mainly to introduce the character but there were enough action scenes which were unique and visually stunning. I saw the 3D movie few days ago but I wouldn't recommend the 3D. There was very little to justify the ticket price. However I would recommend seeing it in an IMAX or Dolby Theater. The score was good as well.

The story of a prince vying for the throne has been given too much meaning, but the plot creation has not kept up with such ambitions

loading replies

Rewatch following the sad passing of Chadwick Boseman. It was this or Get On Up that qualify as his best performances, for me that is.

It's one of the strongest Marvel movies which on the whole are well-made, well-cast bore-fests of relentlessly tiresome action. At the hands of Mr Coogler, this one strives to be more than that and it works.

I won't single out the performance of Chadwick Boseman. It would be unfair to a very talented and well apportioned cast.

The whole film is well done and the nobility in reaching for something more than just a summer blockbuster in a franchise such as Marvel is to be commended. Like Burton's Batmans, this does well to use the studio system for its own ideals.

8/10

Dope soundtrack with a a cool concept. I really loved the world building g in this film and it was fun seeing g a completely new world. The soundtrack was really cool too. It felt like the composer just experiment with everything and I thought that was really cool. I liked seeing a very DIFFERENT story for a superhero and I really liked that. This is 5/8 in my marvel movie binge.

Marvel spent to much energy trying to make this a "Black" movie and not trying to make it a great Marvel movie.

I didn't know anything beforehand about the character but after that perfomance in Civil War and some of the casting news I'm very excited about this movie!

loading replies

I don't get it. All the shining reviews from critics and there is almost no film here. The cookie cutter scientific city, down to the stereotypical portrayal of African culture. The only thing going for it is the cast who do their best to drag the film along. Marvel Studios yet again refuse to let the audience do any thinking and have to spell everything out to you. I'm just glad I didn't have to pay for it as the tickets were free. The action is fast paced to the point you start to think "what even just happened?". I can suspend disbelief as far as I need to but it's impossible to believe in the suspense simply lacking in this film.

I agree that all cultures deserve to be equally represented in mainstream media, and it's sad to realize that in 2018 we are still far from that. Putting that aside, "Black Panther" ranges from forgettable to terrible as a movie per se. I liked the character's first appearance in "Civil War", but the plot here is too convoluted and drags for too long, mostly involving uninteresting characters and lousy CGI. All for a surprisingly anticlimactic final battle.

Black Panther provides a stunning image of what a prosperous Africa could look like. This is Marvel at its absolute best.

This was a fun movie, a slower pace than usual but masterfully made. The action was designed nicely without the usual mashup of non stop explosions we have come to expect. The story evolves naturally and introduces the character we only briefly saw in Civil War. Unlike most Marvel movies this told the story of many battles; the outside world, Wakanda tradition and inner necessities for the greater good. I'm eager to see what Tony Stark will do with the Vibranium if he manages to get his hands on it in a future movie!

Easily one of the best Marvel films to date. The underlying message of the film is not hard to miss. Great acting. Excellent storytelling.

I see myself losing track of how many times I rewatch it. Wakanda Foreeeever!

The most exciting battle of the film was how politically correct it was (and not just concerning the African heroes - it also took on the ideas of social responsibility and feminism, where each female character was strong, intelligent and independent). Black Panther easily won this war and ushers in an exciting new age where we don't think of a film as being 'politically correct', we think of it simply as 'correct'.

As for the Marvel super hero movie aspect...meh. This wasn't the worst, but is far from the best with its routine fight scenes and long stretches of waiting for a routine fight scene.

loading replies

Black Panther is an explosion of African culture and brings something fresh and vibrant to the Marvel universe.

The film is a beautiful treat offering stunning visuals which supports the exceptionally-acted ensemble cast and each element of the film only elevates it, whether it be costume design, score or soundtrack etc. The film’s hero (Chadwick Boseman) and villain (Michael B. Jordan) were standouts for me, immersing the audience in the battle over Wakanda, offering excellent discussion points and what is right and what is wrong. Themes are intertwined within the story at an exceptional fashion and really help to make the movie stand-alone, which other superhero movies fail to do.

It’s a great Marvel movie, veering away from generic stories, and it’s a great movie across the board.

I love the Concept of the Movie I Love the empowerment of it The Action Was Great It was VERY Enjoyable Now I know the movie focus on building up the black panther and I think they Lacked A Villian Character Build up the story was good for Michael B Jordan but in all honesty He wasn't convincing Enough and His Character Lacked but overall Great Movie that I would Watch Repeatedly.

A really good comic book movie. A lot of great action, some laughs, a unique musical score, cool scenery, awesome costume design and a fantastic setting. Wakanda is one of the best things about the movie, it feels so unique I want to see a lot more.

Michael B. Jordan steals the show. Killmonger is one of the best MCU villains and you can sympathize with him. Chadwick Boseman was also great. All the leading ladies (Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira and Letitia Wright) were great because they not only gave great performances, their characters were powerful and meaningful. Definitely want to see it again.

EDIT: I enjoyed this more a second time. Its really unique aesthetics make it stand out from the normal comic book movies. Shuri is still great and I want more of her in Infinity War.

EDIT 2: The more I watch and think about this movie the more I respect it. It might not be my favorite in the MCU but it's the most bold and unique.

WAKANDA IS A ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND FANTASTICAL PLACE. GOD I LOVE THAT CITY,
EVERYTHING ABOUT IT IS JUST SO BLOODY INTERESTING AND COOL,

FANTASTIC HOW THEY BROUGHT ALL US UP TO SPEED WITH THEIR WAYS AND TRADITIONS, GREAT HUMOUR, LOVED THE BLACK PANTHER SUITS AND TECHNOLOGIES, A FANTASTIC CAST GOOD STORY AND A MUCH WELCOME ADDITION TO THE MCU.

They are the richest country in the world but they keep everything to themselves? No wonder Trump people and Fox liked the movie. It's the opposite of inclusive or kind. The reasoning given for their behavior appears righteous and doesn't appear to be true. It seems to be rationalizing bad behavior. Behavior otherwise seen as awful in the real world.

It isn't clear if this is or isn't an authoritarian regime either. We know it's a monarchy with silly rules for who leads.

The "good guys" could easily be seen as bad guys. There's likely destitute people all around the outside of their advanced beyond first world country. That's messed up.

Where do I start...? There are a lot of in-depth, technical reviews already posted here, and I've gotta be honest - on the day after Stan Lee died, this hurts to say, but, I agree with everybody whom rates it as average or less.

It was less than impressive for me. I'm not one that minds a lot of CGI, but come on, there were some parts in this movie that they just didn't bother working on too hard. This feels amplified with the weakness of the story line, which corresponds with the lack of the depth of Chadwick Boseman's character (Black Panther). In every other Marvel movie, there was a little bit, if not more, backstory to the characters. Black Panther feels rushed and overlooked in a lot of ways. The most interesting character, Klaw, is killed off mid-way through the movie and this just happens to be when it started losing interest for me.

[Disney+] A typical product of Phase 4 of the MCU, with irrelevant characters, a bland story, and mediocre visual effects (those backgrounds from the fighting challenges to reach the throne). It is a boring film in the first hour that fails to raise in the second, although at least it offers a certain dose of spectacularity in the massive sequences and in the representation of Wakanda as an idyllic place. But we must admit that Michael B. Jordan is an impeccable scene-stealer, he builds a character so antagonistic that it's almost likeable, much more complex than most of the other characters.

The first solo appearance of the Black Panther has all the hallmarks of a good Marvel film. In addition to the great cast, the interesting story, unique look, and great score stand out. Chadwick Boseman will be sorely missed. He really put his stamp on the role of King T'Challa here. With Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan), "Black Panther" also has perhaps the best villain in the entire MCU. This time around, the typical Marvel humor is less dominant, which is quite refreshing. However, there are some flaws, most notably the dreadful CGI in the finale. The run time is also a bit bloated. However, this only slightly spoils the good overall impression.
