X-Men, Apocalypse: "Everything They've Built, Will Fall..."

Rating: 6/10 (9 July 2016)

Rating: 7.0, Good Movie, But...
* Director Brian Singer has produced masterpieces and disappointments over the years in cinema and his latest movie X-Men, Apocalypse is a bit of both. The X-Men series over the years has consistently been more exciting and entertaining especially the two prequels that really lifted the saga to the next level. The introduction of who is considered MARVEL comic's strongest character, Apocalypse was indeed anticipating however after watching the movie, it was not all bad, however having witness the power of all these mutants, a lot of potential was wasted in what I was hoping for.
* Characters: - Apocalypse: We all know Oscar Isaac is a talented actor, and Apocalypse in the comics is a badass villain, but after watching the movie, his character felt lacking. I wanted Apocalypse to be the Thanos of the X-Men universe. It really is a shame when his power is almost limitless.

Professor X: James McAvoy is one of Hollywood's most underrated actors, he is a star in all his rolls, and his Charle's Xavier is no exception.

Magneto: The mutant of metal played by the magnificent Michael Fassbender is the greatest character is X-Men as he is the villain we all want. He has had it tough man! His parents and now his wife and child, like far out his performance makes you feel his pain! Well done Michael you've given the fans the Magneto they deserve!

Mystique: Raven is an awesome character, whether hero or villain however in this feature she felt like a memory and not a character as all.

Jean Grey: She nailed it, the Dark Phoenix is coming!...

Mutants: Im really angry Havoc is dead and cry baby Cyclops lives! The new nightcrawler is awesome, angel was a let down sure his wings where nice, beast was kind of there. And as for Wolverine, a furious cameo! P.S Quicksilver is way better than the MCU Quicksilver!

* Plot & Design: The X-Men series is evolving its story with humanity and mutants truly outlining the conflict of between them. The visuals are thrilling and exciting filling the audience with enjoyment, however this only appears over half way through the film. Unfortuantly I feel that they have put a bit too many characters in the X-Men series, and Singer has made it hard for us to determine the true protagonist of the X-Men. For me it's Magneto.
* Its a good but flawed sequel in the X-Men franchise, Apocalypse could have been so much more, speaking of which, in the movie he dis arms the world of it's nukes. He could have literally dropped them on the earth and won, that simple... But look it is a decent movie that covers the plot holes from it's much better predecessors. If your a MARVEL fan it's hard not to like. It's no Captain America, Civil War (8.7), but it's better than Batman V Superman (6.7)
