This is NOT your typical Marvel movie and I loved it!

Rating: 9/10 (18 February 2018)

This movie is not a Marvel movie. If you think it's going to be like others, you are wrong. I don't think it rightly compares to Marvel's typical fare. I love the MCU, but this movie is in a category of It's own. I think that is why people are giving it low review numbers. (Plus, i've heard some people are intentionally trashing it, which is very sad.) The movie is beautiful visually. From the set, to the costumes. The CGI could be better in the fight scenes where he is Black Panther, but this is why I took away a star. Yet the story is what makes this more than a typical Marvel Superhero movie. It is a story about old traditions and new. The acting is superb!!! I've seen complaints and I am completely baffled by it. Angela is wonderful, I felt Chadwick's pain at Forrest's death, I understood Michael's hurt over being left alone. This is a drama movie with Action to support it, not the other way around. For that reason, It's not a Marvel movie in my eyes. It's more and phenomenal!! I saw it on Friday opening weekend and will take my Mom next weekend.
