Fantastic fun, really recommend seeing this title!

Rating: 8/10 (17 January 2015)

There have been other lengthy reviews written on this, so I shall keep my opinion short and to the point.
I watched this with my 11 year old grandson and we both thought it was brilliant. Plot could be hard to follow and you would really have had to have seen most of the other X-Men movies as other posters have rightly pointed out. Also you really need to concentrate, but the time passes so quickly during the movie, the story really moves at a cracking pace but that urgency only adds to the excitement. Some terrific actors but many were not used to their full potential I thought (although this does not really impact on the film).
I enjoyed it being set in the 70s so had a laugh at the decor and clothes of that era, it being when I was young(er).
As always new characters with new abilities/powers emerged, and really top notch visuals and production values. The robots that mankind could have built (the sentinels) were so scary!
Brilliant, we both loved it and would easily watch again.
