There is nothing better than a predominately white film willing to drop major jewels. Seth Rogen has me with this one. O'Shea Jackson Jr. was hilarious. I can definitely see him growing into a very talented actor. I love how Seth makes light of certain moments like a cheesy rom-com, gives you a bit of cheesy action and of course slap stick comedy, resulting in a viral video of Seth Rogan eating the floor (figuratively). It's absolutely hilarious how Seth Rogen showcases the ridiculousness that has become our democracy as well as breaking the stereotypes of political party association with his ultra funny and spiritually positive best friend. This film is worth watching as long you don't take yourself too seriously.

Jason Mamoa is absolutely scrumptious, this was solely my motivation for seeing this film. And when I tell you it was terrible! My God! It felt like my five year old wrote the script. It was painful. And it was like 2.5 hours long! It was the worst!

It's unfortunate to see so many bad reviews of this film but I understand why. If you are a black person there are themes that you just can't miss that are close to home and the film really speaks on the relationship between African people and black Americans. So many non black people grip about this movie but it is actually very deep. Unfortunately white America is already acclimated to in depth and complex narratives of people that look like them. And, Unfortunately people of color get the short end of the stick with terrible predictable films. I can't name five truly sophisticated non stereotypical black films so of course you have people over the moon excited about it. It's one of the only films where there is a positive black male lead.

This movie is wonderful for children of color. It is one of the first films that reinforce self esteem. "Show him who you are" is pivotal. The whole idea is knowing who you are and where you come from. Black Americans have been stripped of an identity, as was Killmonger, thus being the driving point of all his rage. If you are outside of the culture and never cared to learn about black culture all of the themes will go over your head. This film shows the power of a nation that is perceived to be impoverished, which is clever and revealing about people who do not want to share their information for fear that it will destroy them, much like Africa and all its resources. A young woman is the head of technological advancement and uhhh the military is all female! That speaks volumes but you just won't get it if you aren't black, which is fine but there is no need to hate a movie that doesn't cater to your perception of the world as many films do.

this film gives real history vibes, Wakanda resembles a place called Lesotho and Eric Killmonger resembles a man named Shaka Zulu. If you aren't cultured you complain about CGI and a story line you don't understand. I saw a complaint about people flying across the room when being hit but they clearly didn't pay attention to the fact that the vibranium collects energy and redistributes it, or that T'Challa has super human strength. Don't view the movie as the best marvel movie out but a decent attempt to demonstrate powerful black culture in the form of a super hero because you know Hollywood wants you to believe it can only be done in a fantasy world.

The film is entertaining, but no mere mortal has that much upper body strength.

I'm not sure why this movie didn't do better in theaters but it was actually quite good! Joel Edgerton is one of my favorite actors, he always plays roles that pull and stretch his acting ability. He can be a charming love, a psychopath or a complete asshole. Charlize Theron's character is unbearable yet irresistible. She is domineering and willing to do anything she can to win. Even though she says outrageously prejudice things it's refreshing to see someone honest enough to be themselves no matter how terrible that might be. I love seeing women in roles opposite of the damsel.

This film speaks volumes about the views of America through an immigrants eyes. It is funny, sad and entertaining from start to finish! Hope this covers it without giving away the good things !

This film was absolutely phenomenal. From the first first scene to the last scene you were locked in engrossed in a world where silence is life-saving. This movie made you feel every range of emotion. I loved the fact that every single time an obstacle was resolved a new one resurfaced. It was gripping and awesome. The only reason I can't give this film a 10 is because we had minimal information of how we got to this point, (how it all began) but it did a great job dropping us in the middle of things and giving a great resolve.

I will admit I was zoning in and out of this film assuming that it would be like all of the other heist films.But, I was pleasantly surprised! My sister loves heists movies so we have seen dozens of them and very few are clever. This film is a must see for action lovers! There are only two things that bothered me: 1) I'm not sure if Jarred Butler has to tweak his mouth like Popeye in order to speak with an American accent but it drives me and my husband insane. Lol very distracting! 2) I was born in California and raised in Georgia, attending Georgia State University and it irritated me to see them driving in Atlanta calling out LA streets, they look nothing alike. It killed me! Two very silly distractions but both caused me to lose focus several times. I got through it and the ending was phenomenal!
