Excellent!... Recommended...

Rating: 8/10 (29 June 2012)

A really well made film with, at its' heart a really enthralling, well thought-out storyline. As we have come to expect from these films, the special effects are of the highest quality. Fortunately this does not distract from the excellent plot that gives so much more depth to the main characters. There is a fair amount of humour as well, look out for a very brief appearance from Wolverine (very funny). Over all, an exceedingly well made film that I hope becomes a big hit. It's intelligent without ever talking down to the audience and I really enjoyed it. I would be happy to see it again and it's still pencilled in to be added to by DVD collection Recommended.
