i want to set an example that you can talk about anything you want in general, so i'm talking about something that isn't a webcomic that statically overlaps with most of the users interests.
i personally felt let down on cinematography, from the trailer i thought i would get to see a really cool looking city (kind of like the alien city in the latest thor but with an African informed aesthetic) and we did get to see that but only for a brief moment and the rest of the sets were normal city, giant cave, empty field.
i liked how the crisis wasn't a giant laser or portal in the sky that was going to destroy the world, it was the right scale and personal with the characters, and the villain was an interesting alternate parallel of what the hero could have been. i usually don't find it that interesting when the villain is just a guy with the same tech as the hero but evil like in multiple iron man films, ant man and a few others, but this made sense and worked well for me.
i thought the first half where they were trying to catch Andy circus was a bit too long or didn't have enough of the main villain in it. i thought it should maybe open on him being already king but they needed the ritual scene to explain/foreshadow/justify multiple important plot points later so it makes sense retrospectively.
and i would have found it interesting to see how the villain ruled wakanda over a slightly longer period of time, how he would have dealt with smaller issues like tax and housing regulations, i think that would be an interesting opportunity to explore his opinions change slightly as he gains a new perspective of being in charge (especially how he would deal with conflicts between the different tribes, which could parallel with his upbringing in and urban city with gangs), i can only imagine he would have big posters with his face on like villains always have when they become dictators and then some sort of black panther rebel group would come about. but i understand the first thing he would want to do would be the thing the hero had to stop and the laws of movie plots didn't allow us to see what would have happened after.
i also felt a bit desensitized to the action scenes, it was mostly slow motion backflips and not enough clear conflict or back and forth. but that might be a bit subjective to me, i'm spoiled on classic kung fu movies.
i liked all the characters for what they represented, and got over the bit where the woman went "what are those!" because i presumed it was either ironic or represented that she was young. but that did make me realize they did a James bond gadget scene and as far as i can remmeber never used the sneakers (and i can usually remember a movie scene for scene, word for word for a few months after watching it so i must not been paying attention if i missed it)
also where the hell was captain america and co that whole time, i thought they were in wakanda. maybe the other films will explain that.
on a side note i can't until after the thanos movies are over so i can watch them all back to back and see the gradient of the studios respecting the audience more and more over time.
