The X Franchise Comes Full Circle

Rating: 10/10 (25 May 2014)

I am compelled to write this review, that is how good this film was. X-Men DoFP, in my opinion, builds upon its predecessor i.e. First Class and man does it deliver? It is everything one can expect from a sequel-prequel-hybrid. The Sentinels were brutal & ruthless killing machines, the way they should be and honestly I was a bit skeptical going in.
Bryan Singer proves that he is a force to be reckoned with. Call it his comeback, rebirth or his love for the franchise but he didn't disappoint one bit in the director's chair. The cameos were a welcome sight with just the right amount of humor at every turn. Not to mention, it was superbly written with attention to most tiny details (or what the film could manage, considering two simultaneous time lines).
A must watch. Love it or hate it, with this latest entry, the franchise has come full circle. Countdown until Apocalypse = T-2yrs.
My rating: 8.5/10
