X-Men: Apocalypse

[img] Plot Summary:After the re-emergence of the world's first mutant, world-destroyer Apocalypse, the X-Men must unite to defeat his extinction level plan.

The X-Men franchise has always been one of my favorite series out there. It is one of the few series Sony has been able to hold onto with pride and continue releasing film after film. I am such a fan that I've liked the movies more than any normal viewer ever did. That's right, I liked X-Men 3 as well. Why? I'm just a fan of creative liberties and making it their own thing - screwing the comic books if they need to - because read more

The movie gave everything I expected from it, and more.

[img] Action? Check.Drama? Check.Funny moments and scenes? HUGE check. (still laughing when replying in my mind! :))

There was never a dull moment or a scene I could cut out. Everything just worked. That being said, there were a couple of minor flaws, all of which can be overlooked by the full scale of the movie.

Story: 8

X-Men Re-introduced

This movie was amazing. It really felt like you were watching something Apocalyptic. Although I don't have had a problem with Bryan Singer's X Men movies, unlike a read more

welcome back, bryan singer. the egyptology angle was intriguing esp the pyramid (de)construction bits. a complex tale due to the many disparate characters which were tied together quite cohesively. the ororo, kurt, scott and magneto stories were handled well but there was too little about jean, alex, betsy and logan; but i guess that's what the other movies are for ;) read more

i don't get people. i mean what do you want when it comes to certain movies. i know when i see a new movie in a franchise i want it to feel like it is part of that franchise while continuing to developing the characters that we know already, introducing new characters and hopefully doing something new. it doesn't have to do something new but it makes for more than just entertainment when it does. x-men: apocalypse is exactly that. it feels like an x-men movie, it develops the returning characters more so and it introduces new characters (and reintroduces old characters). what it never does is... read more

this may not be a good movie, but hot daaaamn if it's not top shelf spectacle. it's bursting with imagery ripped straight from the album art of countless heavy metal albums. this is powerslave brought to life. this is sad wings of destiny on the big screen. a character grows metal wings out of his body, ripping through flesh while hard rock plays over the whole scene. energy blades appear out of thin air, a guy with laser eyes blasts a bunch of stuff, entire landscapes are destroyed, auschwitz itself is razed to the ground by an angry god-like mutant. this is the craziest 80's read more

james mcavoy als patrick stewart ist perfekt! - soviel vorneweg! - nun zum gesamtwerk: der film bietet gefühlt noch mehr helden als civil war, nur, dass ich hier zu kaum einem diese schöne, emotionale bindung habe, wie zu den herren und damen im mcu. das macht es mir erst mal schwer, dem ganzen zu folgen...und, diese ganze neu-/jüngerbesetzung verwirrt mich auch. ich mag die x-men sehr! aber bis ich mal durchgestiegen bin, dass das jean grey ist hat ne weile gedauert...und, dass halle berry ebenfalls ersetzt wurde, wurde mir erst ganz am schluss klar. ich dachte die dame wäre einfach read more

Purely from a fan who has watched xmen evolution and read the comics related to this storyline, this movie is quite enjoyable. It in fact tried to match the cartoon. Except for some disappointing melodrama here n there, it was a very poised use of all characters. read more

credo sia il miglior film, a livello di effetti speciali, che abbia mai visto nel mondo dei supereroi! La trama volendo è molto interessante! Ci sono parecchi riferimenti ai fumetti. Vedi come viene trattata la storia di Magneto e il suo passato nei campi di concentramento. Cosa che sa chi ha letto i vari comics. Qui è accennato con eleganza senza rende troppo pesante la narrazione stessa! Molto più bello e godibile dei film di alcune FASI della Mcu! read more

Felt repetitive to be honest but again it's watchable read more

The film is good.. But I find it very confusing with all The X Men films. read more
