Did I Watch The Same Movie As The Critics?

Rating: 2/10 (28 April 2018)

I went into the movie a bit apprehensive because I saw the high scores from critics and initial viewers, then noticed lower user reviews coming in. For the life of me, I could not understand how anyone watching this film would rate it above a 6 or 7. The special effects were average but considering it was a Marvel film, it was downright awful. The fight scenes were edited into hundreds of 1-3 second clips and there was no sense of battle choreography like the other Marvel films.
There was also no time spent on character building. The people of Wakanda are the stiffest and most deadpan I have ever seen. Zero emotion and normal conversations are like speeches instead of banter. Marvel hit it big in its later movies introducing humor but this film has none at all.
Probably the most surprising that the media didn't warn anyone was that the "Bad Guy" felt the black population had been oppressed, so to make things right, he wanted to basically wipe out the white population in a genocide. This surprised and kind of insulted me - I've never oppressed anyone yet I am the target? Then Black Panther and his army tries to stop him more to protect Wakanda's secrecy than to stop a raving lunatic.
Saw this film with a friend and when the lights came up, our conversation was like this - my friend asked me what I thought and I said "MEH. You?" He just frowned and said "Disappointed."
