Bryan Singer‬ resurrects the franchise and he does so by going back in time

Rating: 9/10 (25 May 2014)

‎Boo you ‪‎Ratner‬! We don't want you messing with it again! So I knew the flick was going to make me jump on my seat since ‪Time Travel‬ was entailed and boy it did! To begin with we have the punishing and ravaging ‪Sentinels‬, there designs hi-tech and adaptive unlike the sloth ones from the animated series! And boy can they fight? We see ‪‎Blink‬ and her portals equally ravishing, those fight seqs are pretty dope! We don't see much of ‪Warpath‬ yet he has been subtly put just like ‪Sunspot‬ and ‪Bishop‬. Was having a gala time spotting my favorite mutants like ‪Toad‬, ‪Havok‬ a.k.a ‪Alex‬ \m/ and watching the fastest Marvel character ‪and Magneto's yet to be officially proclaimed son, Quick Silver‬ fool around in bullet time! ‪Stryker‬ resurrects himself with his dots to connect, whilst ‪Wolverine‬ is charming as ever! But who really picked it up? Well it's Lawrence‬ and friend-cum-foe duo ‪Fassbender‬ and ‪McAvoy‬! Acting knows no bound when Fassbender's around. He paints a movie with his style and sheer pizazz! ‪‎Dinklage‬ does justice to ‪Trask‬ and breathes the character alive with his conviction! One of the most beautiful parts of the movie when ‪‎Charles‬ talks to himself through time \m/ and convinces himself of himself, the end and the eventuality, making him rebound with hope. The contrasting glimpse of future and past was a delight to watch and ‪‎Singer‬ sings like a nightingale wrapping up an epic Marvel universe drama with action, brilliant story-line, portals, mutant-thirsty charismatic Sentinels, series of heart-wrecking deaths, flying Magneto, manipulative X, and of course time travel! Nothing gave me more pleasure than watching Scott‬ come breathing alive on the screen. All those final moments my crossed fingers talked "Please Scott be alive...Please Scott be alive!" Now I can die in peace :)
