A positive waste of time..

Rating: 7/10 (16 January 2013)

So I've been holding on this for so long because i just couldn't swallow the fact that they made an x-men with completely new actors and not to mention a new director, looking up the movie's page here today, i found that the director had made a couple of other good movies so i decided ill just watch it streaming as an independent movie with no ties to the other x-men movies. i have also watched reviews so i knew as a movie it was on the good side.Let me start by saying the vision of this movie in an overhead view is great but the execution is what made this movie mediocre, the same type of problem i see in so many potentially great movies like this one which ends up forgotten and uninspiring. I'm starting to get tired of writing movie reviews and basically saying the same thing over and over. i went into this with low expectations and i have to say in hindsight that probably did help a lot; me not getting disappointed. A choppy storyline, incredibly stupid humor (i smiled maybe once in the movie), pacing that forces you to shut your mind off in order to enjoy the movie, pacing that of which only people with ADD would satisfy, come think of it the guy who made this movie probably has ADD. and script that is more pretentious than fake teeth, not to mention shallow and at times, bouncy as if you're watching Gilmore Girls. this movie is FILLED with one-liners so brace yourself for THAT. And having finished it i will probably forget in in T-minus 2 days, but i want to stress that thats a good level relatively for the movies i see coming out in recent years. Id give it a 7 (according to todays standards) , but not one decimal more.
