I should have known better...

Rating: 5/10 (7 May 2018)

Be warned: If you watch this movie with high expectations based on media buzz and reviews you will be really disappointed. It's a Marvel fantasy action flick without depth, just like all the others. Actually it's Iron Man reborn as an African King, nothing more. If you believe to have found an important message for mankind, or parts of it, you're reading something into it which simply is not there. For sure the makers of this movie were the ones most surprised of what viewers believed to have found in this film. Even worse, if you really wanted to find a message, then it carries a message of anti-democracy. I should have known better since whenever the American mainstream believes to have found something of cultural significance, it's most likely BS. Hollow through and through, but entertaining enough to watch it to the end, hence 5 stars. Unfortunately it left me disappointed, but this only because of the undeserved high expectations.
