I found it tedious and the action scenes were pretty much standard Marvel fare. I left the theater wishing there was something more to it.

Despite online trolls trying to discredit Black Panther and ruin its review scores, the movie has earned an A+ rating from CinemaScore. The movie has been getting rave reviews since critics were allowed to start posting reviews and the general public has been giving the movie great reviews as well, earning the top spot for highest rated Marvel movie on Rotten Tomatoes out of the 18 that have come out thus far. In addition to rave reviews, Black Panther is also on track to make a killing at the box office this weekend.
