the movie was meh. overstuffed, overlong. namor had good motivations but he was all wrong.. Dude aint an Aztec dunno where they pulled that from. Liked how they paid tribute to Chadwick though. 7/10 for me
I think they made him Aztec to avoid too much similarity to Aquaman. I'm ok with that change honestly.
Mixed bag, this one. At least an hour too long with utterly pointless filler. All over the place with the plot. Was there really any point in the CIA/"scientist" plot that couldn't have been explained with a far less time consuming bit of exposition? Did they really need it just to introduce a shitty Ironman replacement? CGI was great in parts and abysmal in others. At least they vastly improved Shuri's character and lost her grating, annoying personality and made her far more likeable. In the grand scheme of things it was totally pointless though and was basically just a stand alone commemorative movie for Boseman.
