Wanted to love it, but meh

Rating: 7/10 (7 September 2018)

After weeks of reviews both praising and belittling BP, I figured I'd watch it myself and make my own judgment. I have to say that I am completely in the middle about the movie.
For a Marvel movie, I was a bit let down - there were far too many incongruities to make me love it, but some of the acting was outstanding, specifically Michael B. Jackson and Martin Freeman (Andy Serkis was damn convincing as well.) The rest of the actors were pretty flat and predictable. They did a GREAT job with the CGI, though.
One of my biggest complaints with BP was the idea that an independent nation that had its own language spoke both in english and wakandan and slipped back and forth in their own country. If the characters are going to speak english, speak english. If they're going to speak wakandan complete with subtitles, make us read. Really annoyed the hell out of me.
Its worth a watch, and I'm glad I did - once. Won't be watching again unless there's nothing on but soccer.
