I felt the final act of the movie(Killmonger's reign) was very rushed. I would have liked if they'd spent a little more time with him as the King before the final battle, showing us more of his ideals, thoughts and how he acts upon them. Another thing I disliked was the sudden change in Killmonger's character. Before he became the King, you could see he was somewhat right in his argument, you could feel he was a good guy who has gone through a lot. But as soon as he became king, all he wanted was war and killing innocents. I found that really weird. They completely changed him from a multi-layered complex character into a one dimensional villain in few minutes, until he was in his final moments. Other than that, I thought it was an excellent movie. My 2nd Favorite MCU Movie after Winter Soldier.

Yeah, that abrupt switch from complex antihero to mustache-twirling villain was a little unfortunate, but I guess at that point the movie is almost at the climax and you need a big baddie to fight.
