That’s funny, I literally just finished watching this yesterday and actually thought it was way better than it has any right to be.
Some things I agree with: Angela Bassett did great but honestly I felt the acting was good all around except for the actress who did Shuri. The visual design is fucking fantastic and I thought the sound design was good for the most part too. Shuri and her motivations or lack thereof definitely made it hard to care about her or why she felt the way she did. Also she’s a bad person in real life so I kinda just dislike her period. Every scene with Okoye or Mbaku was fantastic and I wanted more
CGI was a mixed bag with some moments being really bad but I thought others (like the blue suits) looked good. The water bomb explosions seemed cool looking. Some scenes were lit very poorly though.
Some elements I disagree: Riri was fine. She wasn’t utilized properly but she was a cool addition and I don’t think her being there took away anything. T’challa dying from an illness is about the only way I can see them doing it. I guess they could’ve said they died in battle but then you’d have tons of people being like “show us dead CGI Boseman fighting and losing” which isn’t really as respectful of someone who actually died than just opening to a wonderful ceremony. I enjoyed all the action scenes and the story beats were done well enough even though some of them left me scratching my head (Namor attacks, wins, and then leaves to let them get stronger?).
Overall I thought it was like a 7.5 out of 10 and I enjoyed it more than like the last 5 marvel movies other than Spiderman
