This film functioned more as a memorial service for moving on from the death of Chadwick Boseman, so while the world building was interesting and the costumes/character designs as spectacular as ever, much was lost in the focus of Shuri as T'Challa's successor. She was shoehorned into her role as the main character not because she deserved it through her own virtues but because the comics demanded it. On the other hand, the supporting cast was absolutely perfect!
This plot would have been perfect for the Inhumans show, but not as an MCU film. Heck, there was no little recognition of any other part of the MCU besides one small guest appearance. Without even a post-credits scene and a mid-credit scene that could have just as easily been slipped into the main movie, the entirety of the film felt like a waste of potential.
If you enjoyed the Black Panther, you will enjoy this film. BUT, this a movie made to be seen only once and be put aside, rather than as something to be purchased for rewatching.
