Black Panther is slightly overhated as an example of wokism and wildly underhated as an example of a good movie. It’s actually utter garbage, on its own merits, outside of any culture war context. Doesn’t come anywhere near the true highs of the MCU, which are probably Infinity War, CA: The Winter Soldier, and Iron Man 1.

The movie is far from great. It's also over-hated. I've seen FAR worse.
It's yet another retelling of Hamlet, just as The Lion King was.

The Winter Soldier I'll give you.
Even if you can't stand Marvel movies, Captain America: The Winter Soldier should be required viewing.
It may become particuarly relevant soon...
