Who's going?

Figured I'd take the family for a matinee tomorrow. Will let you know. Seems the reviewers didn't like it much.

Ok, got back a few minutes ago, is good.

Certainly not the greatest comic-book movie I've ever seen. But it works as an X-Men movie. Sure, it's no Oscar nominee, but I feel like some of the critics' reviews I read just really weren't paying attention since IIRC they even got some plain facts wrong. Whatever.

And I do like the way they did Gambit.

Loved it. It filled in a lot of holes. Wish the same actor could have played Striker though.

Can't wait for Magneto's movie!!

He actually wanted to. I noticed that the new guy copied some of the other one's speech patterns, though.

I loved it also,

I wish they would have showed Stryker being able to "control" the admantium (however you spell that). I did not see that in the movie..anyone else?

The lab in the XMEN movies was slightly more realistic that this one...also in the orginal films it looked very bloody for Wolverine when he went through his operation....This film made it look pretty clean...

Anyway those are nit pickin...

Great Movie otherwise!
