I thought it had a decent story and stunning visuals, the African elements were refreshing and creative. However, the political message is too glaring and forced, like a product placement.

Also, coming from a country composed mainly of immigrants, the "greatness only achieved via isolationism" theme and the majority of media's praise of the movie as significant specifically because it is "(representation) for blacks, and (directed, delivered) by blacks" are turn offs. For that a 3 might still be too high. Somebody treated me to this movie, left on my own I'd never have spent the money.
