Not bad

Rating: 7/10 (10 June 2011)

Overall its a decent action flick. Its got its ups and downs
Ups: Magneto's character was really well done. They did a really good job bringing out the tortured element of Eric without making him a wuss like *cough* Anakin Skywalker *cough*. The actor who played him did a pretty good job as well. The Action was great and kept you on the edge of your seat the whole time. It had a really awesome cameo (not going to spoil it) The historical aspect was well played The fictional history was well woven in with the actual history. Good Screenplay. The Tension between Charles and Eric was well done and it really shows the beginnings of their odd friendship. Which is essentially the main point so overall good stuff.
Downs: The Dialogue was quite cheesy (but then again it is a comic book movie). The Charles Xavier actor was poorly chosen and did not portray the mutant saint very well at all and was a disappointment.Kevin Bacon was laughable as the main villain. I mean literally laughable. Not in the Heath Ledger Joker awesome way, but the cheesy Adam West Joker way. The actress who played Mystique was poorly acted and the character was poorly executed. She is one of my favorite Mutants so seeing her portrayed like Bella from Twilight particularly got my goat.
There's more ups and downs, but I cant go further without spoiling it. Its worth seeing defiantly, just don't go in with high standards. Its way better than X-men: Wolverine and X-3. But it still doesn't hold a candle to X-2 or X-men. But it shows hope that the franchise can be saved after 2 horrible movies.
