I don't think you understand, nor will you understand unless I can give you an explanation. It's something that has to be seen when watching the movie.
The hype is nothing in comparison to good character development, even without the hype he's a pretty strong shinobi. I'd rather have him as he is than some Mary Sue who an do no wrong, but to have an actual shinobi like this is a gift.
A born Genius who doesn't understand what it means to be a shinob, so in turn he doesn't take it seriously as he doesn't understand the concept, nor the reason. People want him to strive in his father and grandfather footsteps, but Boruto does not feel that way in his heart. It's until after meeting Sasuke, and through his tutelage does he begin to change into the man we see at the end of the movie. It's a growing up tale of a boy who is gifted, but doesn't try hard. It's more self expressed in today's world with the ever growing theme of technology vs old school.
I've been meaning to write a thread on it, but with so many people who haven't seen the movie, there's no point yet. The writing is quite well.
The movie's development for Boruto is amazing. Hell, Boruto progressed this far without training seriously once. They made that reverence a thousand times.
So it's kind of funny how the movie ends with Boruto's limit being questioned.
