Another good X-men film, guys! I have to tell you, I saw this almost a week after its release and I thought ''the theater will be empty''. I was freaking wrong. Every one was there for this film, turns out X-men are pretty popular in my country too.
When I first learned that this movie was in the works, I felt somehow disappointed. I hated ''X-men Origins: Wolverine'' and I always used to say ''why can't they just leave us with the original trilogy?''. I really liked the first three (X-3 was a bit of a let-down). But when I saw the movie I changed my mind. It was one of the best comic book movies I've ever seen!
The casting was very good and the script is well written and it gives us a chance to see our beloved characters (Professor X & Magneto) back when they were young, friends and how/why they became adversaries. The CGI is incredible -might I say it's better than Thor's a bit- and the music very intense. But the best thing was the direction. Matheww Vaughn was better than I would have hoped, with incredible shots, characters' depth and a perfect tone for the film. It's not as dark as ''The Dark Knight'' but it wasn't as comedic as ''Fantastic Four''.
The thing I enjoyed more was the characters they chose for the story. Every single mutant plays a pivotal role in the film. There is only a few things I didn't like. Magneto's uniform when he departs the team ( Ian McKellen's was better by far) and I expected Magneto and Professor X to be friends since 17-18 years old. This doesn't happen in this film. They meet each other far later. But their relationship is explored in very good way.
To sum it up, either you are a comic book fan or not, you must go and see this movie. It's clever, it's entertaining and with a nice climax. It's worth it. You 're even gonna enjoy the little cameos they've put in there for comic geeks.....Go see it my friends...
