Not divisive. Actually....rather unifying.

This was a cool movie. I was pleasantly surprised. I thought there was a chance it could be somewhat divisive....but was pleasantly surprised. Black pride does not have to automatically equate to anger toward whites. They are not mutually exclusive concepts. If anything, this movie shows an ability to embrace unifying concepts rather than casting a race as an enemy. I enjoyed it....not as a "black movie"....or a "white movie"....but rather, as just a cool, kick-a$$ movie. See it, and enjoy it for what it is. A fun superhero flick.

Good post replicant. I really had no interest in seeing this movie but I've heard from others very similar opinions to yours and they've also said it was unifying, not divisive and a really good movie. I now look forward to seeing it.

Be sure to stick around for the coda after the closing credits. An extra nice touch...

Well, the cracks about Wakandans building bridges, "not walls," is likely to alienate a CERTAIN segment of Americans, but they'd never watch a movie starring so many of "those people" anyway

Wow,way to generalize and segregate. Prejudice goes both ways,in case you don't realize you're doing it.
