It was cool to see Wakanda, what a culture in Africa might have looked like had there been no colonial influences (and y'know, if an asteroid made of vibranium gave them a huge advantage thousands of years ago . . . )
But aside from that, it was just another Marvel movie: not Winter Soldier-good, but not Iron Man 2 or 3-bad.

This pretty much mirrors my thoughts, I would add that naputa metata or whatever her name is was also a very bright spot. I cringed with any parts that walking dead chick had though, and the scenes they had together was like watching the flames play the knights, just two totally different levels.
Killmonger might be my favourite all time comic book villain in movie form. He was outstanding, sad that we won't see more of him in this universe. Well done marvel. They took what black panther has stood for in the states for years and turned it into their villain, but in a compelling way.
I thought a lot of the fight scenes were "meh", and very heavy cgi turned me off of a lot but overall it was a good movie. It might be in its own category in that it was good with some really bright spots contrasted by some really weak spots.
