A bit overrated, but still an amazing film
Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
View MoreEasily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreI love the X-Men movies and especially the ones with Wolverine are very high ranked in my superhero movie top list. He gets a bit more backstory and all the mutants fight against a new villain, which is symbolic for the fear of mutants on the part of humans. What's especially great is the teamwork between good and bad mutants against this enemy and Mystique provides a few of her best plot twists. Dramatic ending, lots of action and great characters.
View MoreThe first half of the film is particularly gripping and dark, and holds the attention of the audience all the time. It is intense, fast and gut-wrenching, and belongs to the best thrillers. The villain seems invincible, and is about to kill all the mutants. The second half of the film is slower and more predictable. The villain's power suddenly disappears and is easily killed by the mutants. This half makes a mistake most of the superheroes movies do. Overall, it is still a decent movie worth watching.
View MoreI wish I can give it . Something. The 1st one I gave a 7. This one isn't an 8, but it's better than the 1st one. More like 7.3. Introduce Striker. Adds Wade Wilson(Deadpool)
View MoreWhen I decided to watch this, I thought it would just be a fun diversion for a little over 2 hours. Turns out, it was a highly entertaining 2 hours that I do not regret. The movie may seem a little silly for non-superhero fans, but I think any veteran superhero fan will find it enjoyable; it is one of the best superhero films (maybe top 3 when it came out, now it's probably somewhere between 5-10). The film is more enjoyable if you've seen the first, but if you have to watch it without seeing the first, it probably would just seem mediocre. This is because it focuses on developing new characters more, while the story relies on characters developed more in the last film. In addition, the humor does not seem misplaced or overused (one of my problems with current superhero movies). People may not also like how there is not a clear cut protagonist, but I think that's kind of the point (hence the title). All in all, a really enjoyable movie that I definitely recommend.
