What a surprise!

Rating: 9/10 (24 June 2011)

I gotta confess something: when I saw the "X-Men Origins" I said to myself: "For Christ's sake Marvel, PLEASE STOP making x-men movies, 4 movies are quite enough to saturate the story!". The movie was not that bad, actually. But several and several movies from one single comic is something that deserves concerns.
Well.. When I found out that a new X-Men movie was about to debut, I got excited, but at the same time, concerned about saturating EVEN MORE the comic. OK, the trailer looked AWESOME, fantastic actors and amazing special effects. "WOOOW!", I thought. But after seeing this movie, the first word that came to my mind was "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!"... man, it worth SO much! Without a doubt, the most terrific from all previous. In addition to an excellent script and memorable dialogues, Charles Xavier, played by James McAvoy, was absolutely captivating..Excellent choice from director Matthew Vaughn. I gotta say that ALL the support cast was great too. (WHAT WAS THAT LINE PLAYED BY WOLVERINE??? LOL!!!)
But for Magneto, my fav. character, played by the fantastic Sir Ian McKellen in the previous ones and now played by Michael Fassbender, I must write a separated paragraph. Fassbender, what a stunning actor! He completely stole the scene. His feelings for revenge and friendship, all mixed up with his fears and traumas, developed a remarkable performance to the audience. Magneto is that unique type of villain that people LOVE to hate. And Fassbender seemed to know exactly what that means :) It was kind of sad to see his friendship with Charles Xavier ruined by his hate and desire for revenge. But the final scene of them, man.. was epic!
For me, personally, was a delightful surprise. I recommended to all my friends to go see this movie. But Marvel, PLEASE, 5 movies is quite enough, OK? The fifth movie was the highest achievement, don't need to make any other after that, seriously :)
