A disappointment

Rating: 4/10 (24 May 2014)

I went to watch the movie looking for a action movie and what I got was a drama....!!! Definitely not worth watching in 3D. So do calibrate your expectations before you book this show. The movie starts off and it had me glued .... For a moment I thought it was Xmen combined with the Matrix , the attack on Xmen is almost in similar manner and by similar threats - sentinels, and same dialog ( "they are coming" , "they found us ") but that's the limit of similarity . The action sequence was a bit boring or rather More confusing then exciting. The seniors come in after that and then it enters the drama mode and becomes a drag. The scenes with Quicksilver brings some excitement but a short lived one - Worth watching. By the climax magneto comes in action, makes things interesting for a while, but again doesn't get his normal exposure, what one would be used to seeing. Halle Barry / storm almost non existent in the whole movie, so don't expect to see her much. Off the female Xmen only Raven gets a good footage, but in most of it she is shown as the naive little girl... All in all I would say not that great to talk about and the 2 hrs + duration doesn't help too..... :-( .
