Now This Is An X-Men Movie

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2014)

Fun, action packed, smart and engaging as they come. I enjoyed every second of this amazing movie, despite it having many time paradoxes. Though that comes with the territory of time travel movies.
So what's our story? The future has gone to all hell, sentinels have killed off nearly every mutant and have begun killing humans who may have mutant babies in the future. This all happens because Mystique killed the creator of the Sentinels, Bolivar Trask, which showed the government exactly why the sentinels were needed. So it's up to Wolverine to have his soul sent back in time to his "younger" body and stop these things from happening by bringing everyone together.
Now time travel is a tricky subject to work with and as a big fan of Doctor Who I paid close attention to it. Does this movie have some paradoxes? So many but the thing about paradoxes is that they keep people talking. This is a movie that me and my friends will be discussing for awhile.
How about the acting? To me the standout of this movie was Peter Dinklage as Bolivar Trask. I say this because he is one of the first people I've seen in a comic book movie that goes against the source material (Bolivar Trask isn't a dwarf in the comics) but make me not care about it at all because he's just that great of an actor. Now was he my favorite? No. He stood out the most to me but the character that had me smiling the most was Evan Peters as Quicksilver. He was just so much fun and had people in the theater cracking up. There's many characters that were only given very very minor roles. Though I understand because we don't want the movie too crowded. Everyone does great in their returning parts and the new characters, while being pretty under developed, still were really cool to me.
It's the perfect blend of action, humor and mutants to keep people young and old entertained. A must see for comic book and everyday moviegoers.
