X-meh: What's the last thing you remember? The Opening sequence.

Rating: 8/10 (23 May 2014)

The hype may have left me ultimately underwhelmed. For a film which was chalked full of potential, I can't help but feel it could have been a lot better. No denying it was a good film, on the same level as X2 and First Class give or take half a star. The future scenes were immense, Sentinels were insanely overpowered! Quicksilver's part was as good as it was brief. The best parts of the film were so short that throughout the rest of the film, I longed for more, rather than appreciating the Mystique Show. I felt Wolverine particularly wasn't used properly. The past really missed out on introducing characters to the full story rather than just the 1 in a bit-part role. Overall, a good superhero film, but not the classic I hoped for and in all honesty, expected.
