I’m not sure as a standalone film this will get many revisits, but as a prologue to The Avengers film next year its pretty suitable, An hors d’oeuvre to wet the taste buds.
Hugo Weavings’ impersonation of Werner Hurzog is one particular highlight, if just a little bit distracting.
Would be very easy to make this out to be better than it really is, the last proper X-Men film was a complete turkey, so I would be safe to say the only way was up.
James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender carry this film. The rest is just same old. Was hoping for more from the Kick-Ass team.
I inappropriately laughed out loud in the cinema, when Michael Ironside appeared.. Gareth, Jordan and Michael Ironside’s fault.
