Great action movie.

Rating: 8/10 (1 October 2011)

I liked the x-men movies and I still do. What I didn't liked was that James McAvoi was in this new movie. I didn't like him a an actor, but he changed my mind with participating in this movie. McAvoi Has learned to act in a mature way, he did it very good. Many actors can learn from him, and I never thought I would say that.
Overall acting was good, great action. I liked Kevin Bacon, I always have liked him as an actor. What was I surprised to see him. And also Michael Ironside who gained a lot of weight over the years. I'll never forget his role in Total Recall. It was a pity he got a small part in this movie, but still was great to see him acting.
Special effects were great. It is very tricky to make a prequel, especially when it has a trilogy behind of it. After seeing a new movie, it is always easy to say that this is the best x-men movie ever. That this movie is better that the previous three. But still, without the previous movies, this movie would never been made.
Background music was awesome, it sounded a bit like the music from Inception. It suited great with the movie.
(Oh yes, I forgot mentioning Hugh Jackman).
