Basically a reboot

Rating: 6/10 (23 May 2016)

Hmmm, so whilst admittedly liking a lot about the new film, particularly the new cast which are all amazing and give truly magnificent performances, the overall narrative is maybe a little too ambitious for its own good. I personally believe this film is actually pretty good. In fact its great set up to an expanding universe. But with all the arcs, and a villain that feels lacklaster and not as grand and dangerous as initially set up to be. I see this new xmen film as just enjoyable set up to potential more grand. This feels as if it is brain singer's way to try and reintroduced and revamp the xmen franchise with our old classics for a new generation. Its alright, nothing amazing or spectacular.
