I enjoyed the film, it wasn't as spectacular as Dr Strange or Thor Ragnarok, but I could take it. I needed to remember it's a low fantasy. Plot of the story has interesting twists. I like that the main protagonist realises mistakes of his mentors and sees that tradition turned stagnation.

The villain has sympathetic backstory, but isn't so sympathetic as he became what he hates, a colonial invader. Still I think Adrian Thoombs from Spider-man Homecoming is the most human and most sympathetic villain, because he tries to be as not villainous as possible. Heroes aren't always complex, they just stop the villain, unless they have flaws and try to improve themselves.

Yes, Black Panther is a mature film in plot. Good that it's not mature in same sense as Deadpool and Logan, where is lot of gore and violence. Sony is going to release gore film Venom, featuring the titular enemy of Spider-man. I find it strange that Sony now makes Spider-man films without Spidey, as they plan to also make Black Cat and Silver Sable film. They go route similar to Fox with X-men films without Wolverine as major character.
