Black Panther is actually a pretty generic, bland marvel movie.
I bet that if the main character was white, this film wouldn't have got the praise that it did.
For me, having an African American Cast doesn't mask that. It's no "revolution" in cinema.

I have not seen the movie myself, but from what I've heard, your opinion seems to be an unpopular one. Perhaps you should further elaborate on the "actually."
And, please don't drag race into this. You've yet to explain why it's like the other Marvel movies in the sense that you consider it "generic," and you've yet to explain why it's bland. You should at least support your point first before you accuse the massive praise for being entirely due to race (and honestly there are some preeeeetty bad implications that come with the statement)
You can have the opinion, but just be wary of the way you presented it and its possible consequences. -
My problem with the movie has mainly to do with how... predictable everything is. Simple characters, Plot elements that are almost overused in other films, a lot of CGI fight scenes, and Black Panther's character arc being no different.
It's an okay film, just generic and overhyped. Mainly for the African American Cast. I actually enjoyed unpopular films like Batman V Superman and all Three Star Wars Prequels more than this, because they actually tried new things.
You know another film that has an all Black Cast, yet is far more entertaining? Who Killed Captain Alex. It was made in Uganda, with a paltry budget of $200. And despite this, It's more entertaining because it has more of a soul.
