A step in the wrong direction

Rating: 3/10 (12 August 2016)

This film had the same problems as Superman vs Batman: -Casting - Story -Execution -CGI
Apocalypse cant turn things to dust or teleport and that annoyed me. As did the fact that he was tiny (as tall as prepubescent teens), not to mention the god awful makeup / voice. His voice SHOULD have been deep and angry with the metallic echo at all times, his costume SHOULD have been either: metallic exoskeleton OR Pharaoh attire, not Pharaoh attire with random tubes going into his head. His powers are that of total control of his body on a molecular level i.e. turning his hands into lazors & feet into jump jets.
Storm: Worshipped as goddess in sub Saharan Africa, not a punk teen with a Mohawk, they took her look from age of apocalypse timeline.
Cyclops: Why in the hell is he a moody little sod? Not his character at all and the choice of actor was wrong IMO.
Jean: Personally don't like that actress so meh. I don't like it how they made her all powerful.... she doesn't access that power till MUCH MUCH later in life.
Angel: Heir to an American billion dollar company, not a German punk cage fighter.
Magneto: sigh, character all over the place: let me kill everyone in the world! oh noes i was wrong sowi, let me help you and you will forget i tried to end the world.
Quicksilver: No idea why he had such a big part, he's a minor character and where's his sister the scarlet witch?
In essence this film feels like a step backwards. They did such a good job with first class I just felt rather disappointed.
