Ranks alongside IM2, Thor 2 and Ultron as a Marvel misfire

Rating: 4/10 (25 February 2018)

I like Marvel films and really enjoyed seeing Black Panther in Civi'l War but this origin story for T'Challa was poorly executed.
The story was poor, the world building ill conceived (advanced society with thatched huts next to skyscrapers and a feudal king), many of the characters flat out annoying or poorly written and a clear and regularly reinforced race agenda.
I mean there is one scene where the token white guy starts talking and he's deliberately drowned out by black characters making monkey sounds (H&M anyone?) because his voice is not worthy because he's white.
If there was any other Hollywood film where this example of racism happened, the director would include it to clearly signal to the audience that the perpetrator was a bad guy, a character that would get his comeuppance for being so openly racist.
Yet not in this film. In fact he's portrayed as an individual coming to the rescue at the end and his racism simply laughed off. It's like this film was made 50 years ago with its tiresome cheap shots and endless chip on the shoulder rhetoric. It is a weak entry into the MCU and ranks alongside IM2, Thor 2 and Ultron as a Marvel dud.
I have concerns about the impact of this film on Infinity War. I do have faith in the Russo's but capitulating to brainless dross to satisfy a rabid politically correct fan base isn't beyond any movie exec. Watching the IW trailer, it does look like they are fighting in Wakanda so are we really going to have to suffer the pinnacle of the last 10 years of MCU coming to a head in an ill conceived El Dorado just to satisfy a bunch of snowflake SJWs who are the last people that were buying into this glorious franchise.
Just as the wait comes to an end, just as we top the crest of the hill to see the wonder of IW and it's huge assembled cast, are we really going to have to contend with a big chunk of it played out through the lens of this blatant weak link? Are we going to have to tolerate Cap and Stark playing second fiddle to this kind of nonsense? I can't deny that I'm a little worried.
When we have seen what feminism, identity politics and piss poor writing and directing talent can do to Star Wars and a Marvel tentpole, are we not fearful that all of our longing will be dashed on the rocks of a studios needing to signal its moral virtue.
