GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Tacticalin An absolute waste of money
Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
avidcritic23 It's great to see more X-Men action after Days of the Future Past. I'm really surprised there was more story to tell after the timelines have split. Plus, the movie was well created to be presentable.The dialogue is always on point in the franchise. I'm also glad to see that Quicksilver is given a larger role. The ending scene in which Charles returns the memories he wiped out of Moira to her was emotional.However, there are some issues I had with this movie.Apocalypse was a little less threatening than I thought he'd be. I expecting him to be a villain who is the most powerful mutant of all mutants in the universe, yet he is defeated easily.Also, the death of one of my favorite characters, Alex Summers/Havok, was no surprise to me at all. Considering the fact that the character wasn't seen much in the promotional phase with the press and advertisements, I knew he wasn't going to stick around through the whole movie. Even when avoding spoilers, I just knew his despise will come up soon and it did.In conclusion, this is fairly great. Comic fans might expect a lot from these type of movies, but they got to give some credit for what was presented.
Octavian1034 This was an enjoyable, entertaining movie with the strongest mutant you'll ever see. But the mutant I speak of looks different than the comic book version and Aushuwitz didn't look anything like that. Just on more thing and I guess I have to make this a spoiler review now, and that just took up some words as I always have to add more at the end just to post. Why in the world would Young Professor X let an FBI agent into cerebro and explain how it works. If the government got him and forced him to use it they would probably kill every single one in the world. Why take chance? There u go writers, just think more before u write movies please.
Neil Welch The latest X-Men movie (excluding Logan) sees the new recruits (and some old friends) playing for high stakes. In the darkest X-men film yet we meet new villain Apocalypse, who is actually the oldest villain of all.In pre-Biblical Egypt, despotic mutant En Sabah Nur (who derives life and powers by parasitically transferring himself into new bodies from time to time) is betrayed during a transfer and buried alive, though dormant, for nearly 6,000 years. Reawoken in 1983, he needs to find powerful mutants to act as his henchmen: this coincides with Charles Xavier starting to use Cerebro to find pupils for his school, Mystique looking to rescue persecuted mutants, and Magneto enjoying family life.I was a little worried before going to see this, because I had heard suggestions that it wasn't that good. I've enjoyed all the previous X-Men films (yes, even the Wolverine origin one), and I've read a fair number of X-Men comics, so I was predisposed towards enjoyment but, still, you worry, don't you?I loved it. It's full of action, the plot is easy enough to follow but dense enough to satisfy, there are sufficient returning cast members to give a sense of continuity, and the new characters (and recast younger versions of characters from the first 3 films) all do well.All is not 100% wonderful, though - it is much darker than previous X-men films, for instance. There are deaths which are emotionally effective (by which I mean upsetting), and there is some imagery which, even in a 12A certificate film, could be regarded as a little disturbing. This is not an exciting family adventure movie (although it is exciting, Xavier's children are a family, and the whole thing is an adventure): it's a bit strong for the young and sensitive. And although the film runs two and a half hours, one wonders if there might be material left on the cutting room floor because, for instance, poor Olivia Munn as Psylocke gets fairly short shrift in what amounts to an underwritten cameo, despite looking exactly like her comics counterpart ie. seriously hot.But there is far more good than bad. Quicksilver's set piece steals the film again, much as it did in X-Men: Days Of Future Past. And there are two points - one of them hinted at in the trailer - which are cause for serious fangasms. Seriously. The unexpected one choked me up: I couldn't believe what I was seeing on screen.Which begs a question as to whether it is possible to enjoy the film if you haven't seen the previous X-Men movies or read any of the comics? Well, I spoke to someone who had just seen it, but hadn't seen any of the previous films, and he said that he thoroughly enjoyed it. So that's two points of view for the price of one.My verdict: as an established X-Men fan, both comics and movies, I would give this a full 10 out of 10.
invisibleunicornninja My head hurt trying to follow this nonsensical plot. This movie is so bad that though it may be funny - but it is not so bad that its good. The effects are bad. Its trying to be dark for some reason, which doesn't work. The actors are bad. The script is bad. The direction is bad. This movie is not worth watching. Everything about this movie sucks.I don't recommend this movie and its not worth watching or even talking about. Even fans should agree that this movie is bad. Don't watch this movie.
