Fantastic movie!

Rating: 9/10 (28 May 2016)

This movie got a lot of negative reviews from critics, but when I saw it I thought it was fantastic.
Now, like every film, this movie had some flaws, but to me there were few and far between. The first being the lack of Jubilee. They kind of hyped up that she was going to be in it, but if I remember correctly she only spoke once or twice. The other issue I had was the running time, which was pushing 3 hours. If you're looking for a quick 90 min. movie, you're out of luck. My last complaint was the death of Havok, who was by far my favorite X-Man in both the comics and the film. He's witty and funny and he's got a lot of charm, and I will admit I was sad to see him go.
On to the good! The CGI in this movie was fantastic, and I honest felt like it was real. The acting was sincere, and the casting choices were phenomenal. I loved seeing Mystique on our side, and I loved seeing the school filled with students. In this film, Mystique really takes charge and helps when the Professor can't be there. I was impressed with the new actors and actresses playing Scott Summers, Jean Gray, and Nightcrawler. Nightcrawler was amazing in this movie, so if you're a fan of the character, definitely check this movie out.
All in all, this movie was really good, despite the critic reviews. If you're looking for a great X-Men movie, then look no further. This is yet again another slam dunk in the X-Men franchise.
