Many leftists are angry over this review. I haven't seen the movie, but I heard similar things from other conservatives.

Still don’t plan on seeing it. I probably will - but not until after opening weekend.

Not that I’m against black characters - I’m just sick of the politicization. If I were black, I’d be upset that I was being patronized - U need to see this movie if you is black!

If anything this is white CEO exploitation of the black people.

But the villain is a hero and the hero does some of what the villain wanted. The movie was excellent but grated on me when it espoused liberal black American tripe, like about blacks being “overly incarcerated”. It sounded like blacks needed help everywhere but Africa. The movie was very good but it accepted racialism.

Many leftists are angry over this review.

Their tenuous grasp on reality has propagated into the realm of fantasy.

A sure sign that their mental disorder is progressing as many such diseases of the mind do. Probably why they are called progressives.

Way too much about “people who look like us”. In reality, Africans do NOT identify with black Americans. This movie espoused blacks as a race it accepted the modern liberal love of skin color. Having said that, I enjoyed the movie and blacks will love it. But when you think about it they made the “black” panther very much a polarizing reference to skin color.

The Cast isn’t very diverse, is it?

If they make movies about Europe from 400 years ago, they still have to find a way to shoehorn at least one black person into the cast.

Wow. I thought it was going to be something like the evil white man is oppressing and Black Panther whups the white devils ass. Wow, I guess we can expect the left to protest this movie soon and call it racist!

Yeaaaah, I’m a grownup.

Pass. Again.

The real Wakanda looks like an African country — open markets, vibrant colors, the architecture, the love of long-held traditions… But if you look closer, everyone enjoys the lifestyle of a Silicon Valley billionaire.

It's a comic book movie. About a comic book world.

Wakanda is ruled by King T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman), who is also known as the Black Panther. T’Challa is big on border security, believes Wakanda and Wakandans should come first, and fiercely protects his country’s culture from outsiders, including refugees. If this is all starting to sound familiar, it should. Also like President Donald Trump, T’Challa’s beliefs are not based on race. This is not a “black thing.” This is a culture/survival thing.

Hmmm... did they accidentally make a conservative movie?

I love it when the left gets red-pilled like this! I just watched the movie knowing some were saying it’s a nod to President Trump and in a way it was. The villain is like Hitler who wants his race/people to rule the world thinking they have better weapons so that makes them the best.

In reality the best weapon, as any good soldier will tell you, is his mind. The physical weapons are just tools to do the job.

Sounds like the movie is consistent with African progressivism. If western civilization had only stayed out of Africa try to imagine what Africans would have accomplished. Sarc

The Wakandans are intensely racist, in the sense of only caring about their own tribe, and to hell with everybody else.
