The Marvel ‘brand’ is so strong right now. They could make a movie about two superhero powered kittens and open it to $100 million. That’s how strong their brand is right now.

Top 5 for me but Winter Soldier and Civil War(which should of been Avengers 2) still hold the top 2 spots.

Something I caught right away in the film that was pretty cool:
Spoiler!
I personally found that to be pretty awesome! |

I saw it this weekend, it was very good. I'd still put GotG, Deadpool, and a few others above it in terms of my favorites, but it was another excellent installment by Marvel.

Finally saw this. I thought it was a underwhelming. Not bad, just not what I was expecting especially after reading the reviews here.

As for his ability (or lack of) in the ritual fights, I think that can pretty easily be explained by him having the black panther power stripped from him just prior to the fight. If you're used to fighting all juiced up, it's got to be difficult to then fight without the juice and would take some time to get accustomed to it.

I liked it. Thought it was good to very good, but not in the top tier of Marvel films. Had some good chuckles spread out and good action. I thought Michael B. Jordan was great as Killmonger. It WAS a beautifully shot movie, though.
And I agree with NewChief and listo - T'Challa was just coming into his Black Panther abilities and was still mastering it, as it were. We'll see the badass he can be in Infinity War. |

IMO, it wasn't arrogance but guilt. Thus, he was holding back slightly which is reinforced when he confronted his father concerning T'Chakka killing his brother and leaving Killmonger. |

It is likely that it will pass $1B this weekend and looking at #1 for a third straight week.

Upon Edit: When you can have reasonable discussions about character motivations in a movie like this, that's one sign of a good movie IMO. |
