It’s actually a great movie, and it’s rooted in Ayn Rand philosophy. Basically, Wakanda has it’s own mineral source which they went Galt and sealed themselves from the other tribes. Only at the end of the movie they decided to share the technology.

I will take a third look, then.

I did recently see another Marvel movie that just got to cable.

Not sure of the title - “Thor: Ragnarok,” I think.

It has a really good battle scene in Wakanda.

But, once again, the acting and the dialogue is deficient, in my opinion.

It's possible there is a shortage of second tier Black acting talent.

First tier Black acting talent has always been excellent, but limited in numbers, in my lifetime - Poitier, Denzel, Morgan Freeman, Samuel L. Jackson.

I thought SLJ was a slam dunk to get Best Supporting Actor for the 2014 “Kingsman,” but I don't think he even got nominated. Possibly too violent.
