IKR Seems weird because I thought we had an x men movie this year about the dark Phoenix and stuff and thought it was god awful Probably just a bad dream
He stole the show with his scene in days of future past and apocalypse bit in dark Phoenix they only had 2 mins of him which was sad I mean they reall should have done more with him
Went and saw the movie last night with my mom. After the movie she pointed out something very interesting. Dwarfism is considered a mutation to our human biology. So they essentially had what we would consider a "mutant" playing the guy who wanted to experiment on, and wipe out the mutants of the X-men world. Can't help but wonder if that was intentional now on the Director's part or just a coincidence.
There's a scene in the film where Bolivar Trask (Dinklage's character) is observed to "hate mutants a lot". Trask says that he doesn't hate them, but instead finds them fascinating and sees them as the key to learn more about themselves (thus him wanting to experiment on them). The sentinel's obviously turned on humanity though - we've seen that in the Matrix movies, Terminator movies, and other genre. A.I. does have that capacity. "Hope" is the moral of this film. Hope to better understand what is not understood....
True buy what separates that mutation and the others is that it's a mutant X gene. I'm not a big expert on genetics but I'm sure that it's different and doesn't matter much if he's a dwarf or not unless Trask had a real power.
Louie Viray ..........I think you kind of missed the point of what I was saying. I was basically saying the director was trying to say something subtly in the movie via that casting choice.
I honestly liked dark phoenix... Granted it could've been better.. But in my opinion its way better than i expected from hearing all the reviews... Shame on you Jeremy!
This movie while awesome kind of felt like damage control, wiping X-Men 3 and Origins - Wolverine from existence but keeping First Class in the canon. Well it's the best damn damage control ever then because this might be the best X-Men movie.
As much I agree, I still wonder how they're gonna do the next movie when they know they can't do some of the same things twice... My only big hope is for Rogue to get her own moments with Ms. Marvel powers!
+Kolbe Howard Not true Kolbe. This movie is not damage control. It's 5% damage control 95% awesome movie. This movie tells a great story with an intriguing plot along with great characters and some of the best action scenes in the X-Men series. Repairing the damage of The Last Stand and Origins was just an added benefit. At least it erased the 2 bad movies from the continuity.
Andy Wu No. Feige is responsible for the worst MCU outings. Let Singer be worthy competition to whatever Disney throws at them. X-Men is at it's best when it doesn't touch the Avengers, just like in the comics.
Andy Wu No they weren't, the biggest things were always X-Men exclusive. Stuff like Avengers vs. X-Men were small time in comparison to their individual major events.
I agree the highest selling Marvel comics were X-Men and Spider-Man comics. Fantastic Four as well in the 60s. The Avengers were pretty popular but not as popular. The 2012 film was pretty much was the first time the team was really mainstream. The Infinity War story lines were pretty popular though I guess.

I disagree, Romijin's was good, but I feel she didn't really understand the character. I personally like Jennifer Lawrence better, because I feel she makes it more "human" so I can relate to mystique/raven's character.
ChipChocolatePR Zack Snyder is directing it, and based on his track record it could be anything from amazing (Watchmen) to horrendously shit (Sucker Punch).
I think part of the reason this movies is so good is because of how little they showed in the trailer of both the story and action. I wish more movies would keep you from seeing everything in.the trailer the way tho one did.
So they DIDN'T blow all the surprises in the prerelease trailers and clips? Fancy that....and here I've been having to explain to all the trolls that a film like this is actually longer than the total 6 minutes of clip previews we'd seen before then.
It's because they marketed this movie well. I do agree that nowadays some trailers spoil too much of the movie and forget about the technique that are supposed to be used in a movie trailer like abruptly interrupting a scene where a character looks like he's about to die or something is coming at him/her. That technique is used to have people go see the rest of what was interrupted in the trailer. That's what trailers are there for. They're there to basically say to the audience, "Go see the movie if you want to see what happens to X, Y, and Z."
X-Men- Blue Ray X-Men 2- Awesometacular X-Men The Land Stand- Good time if drunk X-Men Origins- Dogshit X-Men First Class- Awesometacular The Wolverine- Blue Ray X-Men Days of Future Past- Awesometacular
How ironic! In college biology we learned that dwarfism is a mutation. So, the only real mutant in the movie plays the guy who builds the machines that kill mutants. Also, this movie is only Awesometacular if you've seen every other X-Men movie to date. If you haven't seen the all the other movies, then this movie is nothing but a confusing mess.
Yes. It is. Why? Phenomenal character development and tremendous casting. Marvels still got it, and Civil War was wonderful! But those two Avengers are more fluff and not too much substance. But Days of Future Past has so much to it than just "mutant powers" and "cool action."
JoseMunozV In fairness, how many people have actually ever gotten Superman RIGHT? I can think of only three: Paul Dini, Bruce Timm and Alan Burnett when they were doing the Superman animated series in the 1990s.
***** Blame auteur theory, Mr. Johnson, that persistent little meme that has been entrenched for a long time which says (sometimes erroneously) that the director is the actual author of the film. But unless you're Nolan or Hitchcock, that's rarely the case, as you've just pointed out.
I don't know what y'all are complaining about, superman returns to me is a better film than man of steel...the actor who played superman is a better fit too, there i said it...bring on the hate, anyway there are things still left unexplained in days of future past, i hate open ended endings, how come wolverine didn't remember what happened, he gets saved by mystique pretending to be william stryker, you would think she told him what happened, they didn't fix the time paradox , he lived through the altered timeline and he has been living in charles's mansion for many years...how come he just forgot, its not like bryan singer has all the answers
Im ruining it for myself by wondering what was the point in getting magneto/erik? Charles, wolverine and hank couldve easily stopped raven. Erik wouldnt have tried to stop her and shot her in the process and the sentinel program wouldnt have been given the ok. Erik just made things more complicated than necessary lol. I loved the movie but thats just a plot hole i probably wont get over.
spanishforyou123 I agree with you. Getting Magneto out was pointless but of course they were going to do that since they need him to play a big part in the movie.
spanishforyou123 i think its because they still thought mystique is with him and it would make it so much faster to find her as erik knows her best what she will do and where she could be
Most consider X2 one of the greatest superhero films of all time, so you don't have to worry about people disagreeing with you. As for The Wolverine, its a decent film, that I don't think was terribly offensive to those who watched it.
Wolverine isn't even the star of this movie. This movie is more of a Professor X and Mystique movie. And please, don't comment "It's because of Jennifer Lawrence that Mystique is prominent in this movie" No... read the Days of Future Past comic book, Mystique is pretty important there too.
I like that Wolverine's less of a main character this time round. I would have liked to have seen a little more of Havok & co though. Still a great movie though!
***** SPOILERS i wonder if now that they have pretty much corrected the errors from the third one and everyone from the original xmen is back in their role, they will go with romjin again rather than lawrence? would make sense to have her back now .
***** Mystique was a one-note character in all the prior movies. Mystique in First Class with Jennifer Lawrence was the first time that I realized (1) Mystique wasn't just a big boobed mannequin to please fan boys and (2) only Jennifer Lawrence could have delivered on this role which would have fallen flat if it had been given to someone else.
What a movie! This movie is far greater than Captain America. Best movie of the year so far! This is a 10/10 in my book. Something actually worth going to the theater for!
I kind of was hoping for more screen time in XMDOFP for these characters... Quicksilver Havok Toad Quicksilver Ink Did I mention Quicksilver? Cyclops Bishop Quicksilver
Agree the Kitty Pryde 'time travel' thing was weird. But I could stretch my acceptance. Passing through matter, passing through time...sure. Hey, if it means undoing the damage of Last Stand...I'm good with it. Really it was a great movie. I haven't been as huge with the x-men aside from the animated series (though I've enjoyed the good movies in this franchise). But this was good. It was a strong movie from start to finish. Maybe...maybe I'd have liked even more futuristic action, but I get they can only fit so much in there. The movie was so strong that the amount of action we got was fine. Praise to Bryan Singer. Man has helped save the X-Men and now I'm hyped for what's next.
This movie puts anything marvel has done in the past (aside from the avengers) and puts it the fuck to shame. I've never even been a massive xmen fan, but this movie just has everything going for it. 10/10
adammuntaser Acts? I'm pretty sure that when people say they really enjoyed Avengers, it's not an act. I put DOFP and AV right up there. Both AWESOME films.
TexasReppin210 I can't remember the exact name of it but Batman died at the end of a 2 part animated special of him vs Superman. Technically he won but heart attack killed him
TheLennyLegoShow It was originally a graphic novel created by Frank Miller, then adapted later into the cartoon you mentioned. It's called "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns". One of the greatest graphic novels ever created, one of the best animated adaptations of a comic book, and one of my personal favorites. The upcoming Batman vs Superman movie looks like it will be integrating some plot and elements from the graphic novel. BTW, did you watch the cartoon to the very end? SPOILER ALERT................Batman lives.
This is my favorite "X-Men" movie now. When it comes to comic book movies, the action is what ultimately blows me away but this movie's drama blew me away instead. There was just so much dramatic tension in the narrative. The climax had me so nervous I'm surprised I wasn't sweating bullets and hyperventilating while it was going down. More than anything, this movie was Bryan Singer's love letter to fans who have been there since the first movie. Some sequences are direct callbacks to signature sequences from the first two movies, particularly the second one. One scene involving Msytique and another involving Magneto notably resembled certain scenes from "X2" that I won't spoil because it's far more rewarding to see them for oneself. These scenes had me grinning immensely and the ending had me wanting to stand up in applause. Quite a few people actually did. Please, Bryan Singer, DON'T LEAVE US AGAIN!
***** I would argue that spectacle has its place but it is very, very nice when you can get what you're talking about in the bargain. I never had any fears about this film being a mega-success from the first actual trailer I saw (now if I can just get around to seeing the film...it sucks to be without a car and poor!). All I had to do was remember going to see the first X-Men film in theaters with a friend of mine because the other options sucked. I even told her that if this film DID suck, I'd take full responsibility. Instead, I was blown away by how good it was...still am. So when I heard of Singer coming back and kept soaking up the drips of the film publicly released, I knew everything would be great. Good to know I was right!
***** Here that? That's me not arguing with you. On the other hand, I do wonder if the golden age of storytelling some folks like to bring up (not you, you understand, but some of the more witless like John Farr, whom I had an extended dukeout with over the course of a month on HuffPo) is as good as they say.
To me Kitty Pride being able to send people back in time makes sense. She has powers that don't conform to the typical physicality of space and time. She can go through objects and can go through time.
x-men : no alcohol needed x-2 : blu ray last stand : t-minus the rest of your life (its stuck there and the memory will never be let go) origins : dog sheeeeeet first class : awesometacular THE wolverine : no alcohol needed days of future past : the absolute definition of AWESOMETACULAR YALL
Well considering how many shortcomings The Winter Soldier had, if you were able to walk out satisfied, then there's no reason why you shouldn't easily be able to enjoy this.
Chris Dynamo Seriously please tell me. what do you mean when you say Cap 2 had short comings. I think it was the best marvel movie but, I would like to hear your opinion.
Gregory mantonios Yeah I know,and even then its only their conciousness,she basiclly can go through spacetime,its just that time have much more limitations then space.
Seriously, anybody trying to rationalize Kitty's time travel powers sound retarded, because the notion of it is pretty retarded. If anything, the powers seemed to be more telepathic in nature since she was transporting the consciousness of a person into their earlier body. This is the reason why it was Rachel Summers who did it in the comic, and why they should've just made Professor X the one to perform it. Would've made a helluva lot more sense (especially the part when Charles communicates with old Charles through Logan), and the plot could've played out basically the same.
"Out of the way, bitches...its my franchise." I loved that line from you, Jeremy; it fits so many aspects of this series very well. I could imagine Singer actually saying that to the pompous Fox execs who only care about money.
I would've liked few more flashbacks showing the Sentinels rising up and killing mutants... mainly cos the sentinels are freaking amazing and i just wanted to see more of them but besides that the movie was brilliant
I came back to this after his dark Phoenix review. Way to go Jeremy. You called them making it. Little did you know that the last stand actually would end up being better
this movie was really awesome but it raised a few questions though...like why is kitty suddenly able to send people through time? or why does magneto have back his powers when he lost them in X3? or why does wolverine have his metal claws when he lost them in his last movie?
If you recall. At the end of X3 he moves the chest pieces with his powers. It wasn't a permanent cure too the powers . View it as an allergy pill. Gets rid of them for a while. But they'll be back. Hope that gave you an idea. And for wolverine losing his claws i don't know what your referring too.
Mystique took him by the end of of DOFP posing as striker so that's how he got his claws back. And since they changed the future I guess wolverine never went to japan
kitty probably bends space-time, that would explain her spacebending to walk through walls, aand also manipulate time. that is my only most logicall explanation
I love the fact that Jeremy was so jazzed about the "X2" theme playing at the start. I'm a bit of a geek when it comes to film scores, and the fact that Singer and the composer John Ottman brought back a lot of the themes from "X2" in this film and "Apocalypse" actually meant a lot to me. It's a shame that so many sequels and franchises these days don't keep consistent musical themes between films. Music is just as important as the image onscreen much of the time, and recurring themes always subtly tie franchises together and give them a certain sense of consistency in my opinion. It's just... special to hear a recognizable theme. I'm really hoping that if the next film really is a Phoenix-saga film like some are theorizing that they retain the themes and music as they have with the past few films.
Just watched it, loved it but there are just some minor nitpicks about the movie. 1) I know we are all pretending X-3 and Origins: Wolverine didn't happen, but I wished Bryan Singer managed to string everything together, even if he was going to reboot the continuity. DOFP didn't explain how Prof X is back alive and in a hoverchair (I know this was hinted at the end of X-3, but still), how Origins fitted into the timeline and I was hoping Quicksilver would be that link (Since we saw him/some other speedster in Origins). Oh well, guess even Bryan Singer couldn't fix that trainwreck. 2) How Wolverine got his metal claws back (I read somewhere that Magneto might have had something to do with it, but also, unexplained) and Kitty's power upgrade. Hopefully this will show up in the extended edition. 3) Almost 80% of the First Class mutants were killed off screen or had like 10 second cameos which is a huge shame cos it made First Class feel kinda irrelevant. 4) No Stan Lee lol.
1) in the same way that all the comics don't completely fit together, there is no need to force every single movie in the marvel universe to follow cannon verbatim. Would you rather they deliver a fun, entertaining movie or force all these movies to work together as a whole? 2) It doesn't matter how he got his claws back....that story is completely irrelevant to the plot of this particular movie. 3)First class had too many mutants anyway. Again, they were not necessary to tell this story. 4) I did miss stan lee. I'm sure he's in there somewhere.
Another weird thing, is that Origins and X-3 did happen, because when Xavier in he past searches Logan's memories, he finds the events of X-3 and Origins, with Wolverine being made into the first weapon X and Logan killing Jean.

I seriously can't understand why many don't notice the severe setbacks that this movie has (spoiler warning from here). For starters, it introduces several new characters we didn't met before, like that portal chick (Blinx, I believe?) who are just there to give you nothing but cool action scenes and get killed; Shadowcat can transport persons back to the past, a power she never showed before, with no explanation ever given; Storm barely has a role in this movie and in the biggest slap to the face in the whole movie series, gets unceremoniously killed off very soon into the final battle in the future; the movie does not explain how Charles was revived, and even watching X3's post-credits scene, something many didn't, all is too cryptic, neither is it explained how Logan got back his adamantium claws when they were clearly shown to have been cut off in The Wolverine, and the whole thing with the Sentinels doesn't even make sense. Why didn't they appear before? Not explained. Why was Mystique's DNA applied only until much later when it was supposedly taken in the 70s? Never addressed. Sorry, but the convoluted plot full of holes and inconsistencies cannot be ignored and don't allow me to give this movie more than a "no alcohol required" rating, which is good, but nowhere near the overrated reviews many have been giving this movie.
Jaime Mora Did you read what I what I wrote? No, it's not because many praise it. It's because it is convoluted, confusing and has even more plot holes and unexplained things than X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
The only huge plot hole was how Professor X was brought back to life. The other two minor ones where Wolverine getting his metal claws back, and how Kitty discover her time traveling powers. Though an explanation would have been nice it wasn't that big of a deal. I am sure they manage to get Wolverine's metal claws back somehow, and Kitty's power are just a secondary mutation. Though it would have been cool to know a little more about the new mutants, there just mutants trying to survive the Sentinel ruled world. So Storm was killed, what of it? She is still alive with time changing, and she died in the comic book version too. I am sure they didn't have the technology to utilize Mystique's DNA into the Sentinels at the time.
Jaime Mora It's true the synthetic sentinels couldn't be made at the time, but the movie still clearly shows that there were sentinels in the 70s and it doesn't explain why they weren't used. And it's not that Storm gets killed. It's how she got killed and how early it was into the fight. She barely even appeared in the movie, and that is a big setback. Also, tell me, how are you going to not explain the fact that a mutant with no time travel powers, which is a very big deal, and with powers that are completely unrelated to time travel, suddenly can send people back in time? Sorry, it doesn't make sense and it just confuses you a lot. And having too many characters you didn't even know of is throwing too much at you. It's unsettling and you can't even relate to them that much because they barely get character development. Like I said, they are just there to give cool fight scenes that make you turn your brain off.
We both have very different perspective on the movie, just like everyone else lol of course theres nothing wrong with that. As far as Kitty's time traveling powers, it really isn't a big deal there are several mutants who have gone through a secondary mutation that are completely unrelated to their primary mutations. Examples: Emma Frost primary power is telepathy, and her second mutation is her diamond form.
Yes, Kitty can "walk through walls", but her power is technically altering the third dimension. It makes sense for her powers to increase to be able to alter the fourth.
Ok, so the X Men saved the day by sending Wolverine back in time, now we X Men fans need to find a way to send Brian Singer back in time so that he directs X Men 3 instead of Mr. What's his name who screwed it up! Anyone got a Delorean?
I'm going to borrow this idea from Spoony's review, but it's an interesting take, that maybe Peter Dinklage was cast on purpose. He said he admired mutants, and he himself is technically a mutation, but without cool powers like mutants. So he possibly built the sentinel program as a ventilation of his jealousy.
Interesting idea, but no. Pure stunt casting due to industry popularity. It would have been cool, if the sentinels had registered Trask as a mutant, though. Spoony sold out to his GF. She loved it, and he trashed it for two hours, and then said he liked it. I like her, but she's clearly leading him by the dick.
What I love about this movie is that it had the sentinels in it(finally), cool action scenes, high stakes, a great end credit scene (not going to spoil it), and most importantly it undid the really terrible x-men 3.
The movie was good I enjoyed it, but it also pissed me off the reason why this movies pissed me off is because... *major spoiler* Every single X-Men get their ass handed to them horribly in very pathetic ways. The X-Men are suppose to be the *BEST OF THE BEST* and yet they all get buttstomp by few Sentinels I must admit that i have no idea how strong these Sentinel are, but come on this was embarrassing... Storm did put up a fight, but she was stab in the back and there she goes down first... (Yeah right) Colossus easily get rip in half as easily as you can break a spaghetti stick in half. *Lol* Bishop didn't do shit and he get totally destroy by three lazer hitting him... Sunspot was cool and did put up a fight, but didn't do any damages he was easily defeated and stabbed and then throw away like trash. Iceman was the most useless and pathetic one he hold off the sentinel for what? 5-10 seconds and then get kill right away by few lazer... *(This was very sad to watch...)* Magneto even him was kind of useless, but he was old and the sentinel wasn't made of metal, but I think he could have done more stuff to help, he was hit by something and then retreat to safety as far as I know he didn't die. Blink is the only one who actually put up a fight was she was the last one standing until three sentinel stab her. Xavier didn't do anything during the fight and he didn't die. Wolverine doesn't count since he wasn't really there. And the other are not important. So yeah so much for the best mutant team ever crushed super easily like little ants. Anyone can tell me why they were killed so easily?
The sentinels adapted to counteract their abilities dude. Colossus was ripped in half because the sentinels began to be composed of the same metal that colossus is made out of so his advantage was completely nulified. Bishop was able to kill several sentinels before he got killed. The one you called pyro was actually sunspot and I agree he didn't do shit, even when the sentinels were clearly not affected by his flames he continued to spray them instead of retreating to a better position.
***** I see I didn't know Bishop actually killed something since I was watching it in a Cine parc and I didn't saw anything during the fighting scene it was too dark. lol
Achille12345 You know, I feel you, I get what you're saying. But this weren't any ol' Sentinels, I mean, even those Sentinels are designed to kill mutants and they get mad strength in numbers. But this guys... were like a version of Nimrod. If you know your X-men, Nimrod's one tough cookie. I wasn't disappointed, I actually love how Dire it was cause that's basically what happens in the comic, the original one. They get pwned by the *commom* sentinels.
Roman Romero Ramirez The future ones were scary O_O, and yeah, because of how powerful they were with the ability to adapt and such, it pretty much made them the equivalent of the Nimrod sentinel
Achille12345 we noticed you couldn't see much, the whole point of the movie was that the sentinels were fucking OP and the only way to survive was to "travel" to the past and stop raven/mistique before she killed trask, get caught and started the OP Sentinels and the war.
Nice movie review Jeremy! Well ladies and gents.. you can now be Certain that with the good reviews, The X-Men franchise will NEVER go back to Marvel.. and Fox will make sure of that, lol
"Out of the way! This is my franchise!" SPOT. FREAKING. ON. Loved this movie :D I don't care if it's different from the comics or 90s series. These are good enough to stand on their own
Until your video, I didn't even know that the guy from the film "Wanted," James McAvoy (looked up his name), was the same guy portraying Professor Charles Xavier. What a transformation. If someone had suggested to me years ago that he would be portraying Xavier (the older or younger version), I would have thought of him as miscast for the role.
yeah, and he's the one playing as Mr Tumnus in the first Narnia movie, Lion, the Wicth and The Wardrobe. I never consider him as a hot guy before Wanted >w
When I first came out of the cinema I felt like I still didn't really like him as Charles. I've watched it a couple more times since then and he's grown on me.
Theory on Kitty Pride's time travel ability. When she's travelling through walls she's actually sending herself forward / back in time to when there was no wall there, and then back to current days as she comes out of the wall
About Kitty... It's just an additional power she gets when she's older. In X2 and X3 she was still young and her mutant abilities hadn't fully developed yet.
Good point! Add in a likely mandatory study of quantum physics (hey, if your molecules can pass through solid matter, it might be a good idea to find out how you can do that better as time goes by!) and the time travel thing only makes more sense.
Ok, only 1 major question: HOW THE HECK IS XAVIER IN THIS MOVIE?!! He died! And, Magneto got shot by that cure. Same as Rogue. Jean died, but I don't know if she's in there. Ugh, this doesn't make SENSE!! SOMEONE, PLEASE explain!!
Logan basically changed the course of history, because what happened whem he went back didnt happen from his original time line everything had the potential to takr different little turns. Basically the first 3 movies dont matter anymore. Beast and scott and jean are all alive and everythings okay (for now). Logan was the only one sent back so his conciousness just plopped into the new timeline. Since trask is alive and magneto knows about the sentinels theyll probably be in the next movie and if you stayed for the end credits apocolypse is the new villain.
i think this is the timeline of x men first class, which does not necessarily is conected to the events of the trilogy, so theres a whole sory we dont really know during that time period
Watch x men 3 again..... U will find ur answers... Megnito at the end moved chess peace with his power and professor transferred himself to another body... Thats the scene after credits.... Look for it you will find it...
On KITTY PRYDE: TIME is a dimension. Kitty pride already uses her abilities to phase through solid matter (using the 4th dimensional space to bypass 3D solid objects) it's only a tiny stretch of her powers that gets you from there to TIME TRAVEL. She phases through 5th dimensional space to bypass the 4th dimension (time).
Wow, was this movie really that good? I wasn't so sure because of Bryan Singers. I'm not big fan of is movies. I guess he had to step up big time after Matthew Vaughn's First Class.
Do remember that Singer was the one who made the franchise possible with the first two films. But, yeah, let's give props to Matthew Vaughn, who had a hand in this production as well and made DOFP possible with his James Bond take on the X-Men.
Azatarot75 I agree with salamander337. I've never been impressed with the Brian Singer X-Men films simply because they never had any good action scenes. It was all about story, and no good action.
It was that good. I typically don't enjoy the X-Men movies, but a friend of mine wanted to see it and Marvel's been pretty impressive this year, so I went to see it. I knew nothing about it going so I really had no level of expectations. I ended up really enjoying it.
NewCanadianTurtle And what, precisely, is wrong with story? Still, I do see your point...and maybe it took "Superman Returns" and "Jack the Giant Killer" to teach Singer how to do action credibly.
43jenp Marvel yes but not Fox. The X-Men rights is owned by Fox, not Marvel Studio. The Avengers, Capt America, Thor, Iron Man, and the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy are owned by Marvel Studio. While Spider-man is owned by Sony.
Awesome review Jeremy. I fucking loved this movie so good. Great times acting Bryan Singer's come home where he belongs! I gave it my Bad Ass Seal Of Approval. Can't wait for X-Men: Apocalypse.
The producer herself said that Last Stand is no longer canon. It's pretty bad when even the studio admits that it's so shit they don't want any part of it.
cloudparter I was hoping that was the case. I didn't even care to know when he appeared at the end of "The Wolverine." Now give us Jean Grey and Cyclops back and all will be truly forgiven.
ieberhart87 Yeah.. it was never explained clearly how Charles Xavier is still around (even in the dystopian future). Luckily the whole days of future past just tells you to forget what happened between the past of 'days of future past' up to the future. Only First Class and the 'Past' events of this film is part of the new timeline.
I love how vital they've made mystique in this movie. in the other movies she was just there but now it's like they've snaped her but made her so important with different reasons
What I love about this movie is that since the past change not only for everyone but for Logan as well that means X-men 3 and X-men Origins no longer happened. This means the Deadpool movie won't have crappy elements from X-men Origins and will have a fresh story.
Dang. Everyone in the world seems to think this movie was amazing, but I was like the only one min my theatre that was just bummed by it haha. I can't quite put a finger on what was wrong with this movie, but I just felt no threat at all from any of the events. Which is really weird, because there were super threatening situation sin this movie! I don't know, there was something about it that felt off to me, and so I had to rush back to the theatre the next weekend to rewatch the incredible Godzilla movie haha.
You are not alone. There are many who dislike the movies but they are not as vocal as the positive viewers. I think many of the original X-men comic fans don't like the direction the movies are going.
There were a number of mistakes - this reviewer obviously does not know what he is talking about as he does not even understand the Kitty Pride bit where if he did he would know of her powers and the reasons for them and that she was the one who originally went back. I want to know why everyone seems to forget the lead in at the end of The Wolverine was completely forgotten about and not linked up to the beginning of this movie at all. I see it as just a lead in movie to Age of Apocalypse which I am very excited for. BTW Bishop holds his own against an army of sentinels for a bit there so he does do something. Trash was awesome I agree there. Another problem was they did not explain how pro X comes back after being vaporized by Dark Phoenix in Xmen 3!
Al Harding Sigh...for a self-professed fan, your last statement tells me, yet again, that somebody missed the post credits scene of X3. As for the rest, when something is this successful, nobody really gives a shit except nitpickers like you.
Azatarot75 I agree with Al actually and I was saying the same thing about the post credits scene from The Wolverine not matching up at all. To be frank, it's the culmination of all the little changes and inconsistencies like this made with all the X movies that makes them less than stellar.
I think maybe the reason Kitty Pride can send people through time is not that her powers make her able to walk through walls, but she can bend space and time and stuff, so really she might be sending the walls and crap she touches back in time or forward of whatever to whenever it didn't exist.
PLOT HOLE(S): 1. If Wolverine's mind has the ability to heal under "critical conditions" (Kitty Pryde mind-warping Wolverine's mind into the past), then how come his mind can't heal from the adamantium gunshot wounds that he suffered from in "X-Men: Wolverine Origins?" 2. Why not send Wolverine back in time to "a couple weeks" before the Paris Peace Accords (The place where Mystique is suppose to kill Bolivar Trask) instead of "a couple days" before the event so that they wouldn't be so pressed for time to find Mystique? 3. Why didn't they CONTINUE to use Quicksilver to help them with the mission after they freed Magneto from the Pentagon (They could have used Quicksilver's superspeed to stop Mystique from shooting President Nixon and Bolivar Trask) 4. How does Magneto's manipulation of the Sentinels allow for him to control the "computer systems" of the Sentinels and stop them from attacking him as a mutant? (His magnetism only controls metal NOT computer system functions) 5. Since Mystique's powers only copy the physical appearance of humans/mutants and NOT their powers, then how can the Future Sentinels copy the powers of other mutants if they function from her DNA? 6. What "real need" was there for them to free Magneto from The Pentagon if they were easily able to proceed with the mission after Magneto runs away from them after the Paris Peace Accords? In fact, why burden themselves with the mission of breaking out Magneto, in the first place, when they could have just skipped that and just taken Quicksilver with them to the Paris Peace Accords and just used his superspeed to prevent Mystique from beating up everyone in the room and attempting to shoot Bolivar Trask? All in all, I LOVE the film and give the film a 8.7/10.
1.His consciousness can survive in the past, but only if he maintains peaceful thoughts. Kitty Pride is just holding the balance. As soon as something upsets or distracts him - like the time he remembered Stryker, he is no good. 2. It is because they are hiding in the future, or our current present where there is a great danger from sentinels. If the sentinels find them or kill them before changing the past it is all over. They were in a hurry. 3.Silver is just a kid and a small thief. They did not want to drag him to fight in their war, or allow to someone capture him on a film.His mother was already aplogizing to wolverine, charles and hank before they meet him. 4.Maybe that metal somehow fused or integrated with the motherboard(lol). It is a comic book plot ''mechanism''. 5. Her DNA was used so sentinels can adapt to mutant attacks not copy their power. Then in the future would just find countermeasure for the attack. You could see in the end that most of the time sentinels just stab mutants to kill them. 6. Quicksilver can't affect her mindset. Magneto was closer to her than anybody else. Since Magneto is ultimate mutant who fights for mutant liberty and rights, Charles thought that he could persuade her not to kill Trask. There you go!
Watching your intro in 2019: "I think you're gonna regret those words"
i guess it's kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good site to stream newly released movies online?
@Alejandro Alexis thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :D I really appreciate it !!
And we still haven't got a Phoenix saga movie yet...
Lol
IKR
Seems weird because I thought we had an x men movie this year about the dark Phoenix and stuff and thought it was god awful
Probably just a bad dream
LMAO
Yes
It was fucking trash
but that quicksilver scene tho ...
Everytime I choose to watch this movie:
I come for the Quicksilver scene, I stay for the excellent film.
xmen : apocalypse has more of that quicksilver scene ;)
Monish K sweet dreams...
He stole the show with his scene in days of future past and apocalypse bit in dark Phoenix they only had 2 mins of him which was sad I mean they reall should have done more with him
Trask rearranged spells Stark
Fox and Disney crossover confirmed.
popeye697 creativity, level - copyright
popeye697 *mindblown* lol
+popeye697 You got that right, genius.
+Sam no Its MARVEL crossover
Went and saw the movie last night with my mom. After the movie she pointed out something very interesting. Dwarfism is considered a mutation to our human biology. So they essentially had what we would consider a "mutant" playing the guy who wanted to experiment on, and wipe out the mutants of the X-men world. Can't help but wonder if that was intentional now on the Director's part or just a coincidence.
A very interesting thought from your mom, actually...could well have BEEN intentional, knowing Singer.
There's a scene in the film where Bolivar Trask (Dinklage's character) is observed to "hate mutants a lot". Trask says that he doesn't hate them, but instead finds them fascinating and sees them as the key to learn more about themselves (thus him wanting to experiment on them). The sentinel's obviously turned on humanity though - we've seen that in the Matrix movies, Terminator movies, and other genre. A.I. does have that capacity. "Hope" is the moral of this film. Hope to better understand what is not understood....
True buy what separates that mutation and the others is that it's a mutant X gene. I'm not a big expert on genetics but I'm sure that it's different and doesn't matter much if he's a dwarf or not unless Trask had a real power.
Louie Viray ..........I think you kind of missed the point of what I was saying. I was basically saying the director was trying to say something subtly in the movie via that casting choice.
KazeAizen To be honest, I don't think Bryan Singer is that smart. But maybe I'm wrong. I don't know the guy personally.
I just wish quicksilver had more screen time in this movie.
he'll be in avengers 2 i mean a newer quicksilver
He's gonna be in Apocalypse.
cant wait to see that movie x5 or first class 2 fuk it i dont know the name of the next movie
ace prime Apocalypse.
Quicksilver is gonna be in Avengers 2
This movie was really good
;-; I still want to see that so bad.
Cyclops and Jean returns
Diego Hernandez yeah
Cute girl that likes X-men? Excuse me, are you real? Is this a mirage? I think it's a mirage.
+Sam I thought the same thing, but yes, dreams really do come true...
Who is here after his review of Dark Phoenix lol?
Damn they really just crushed his dreams like that
I honestly liked dark phoenix... Granted it could've been better.. But in my opinion its way better than i expected from hearing all the reviews... Shame on you Jeremy!
Dark Phoenix makes resident evil the final chapter look epic lol
I've yet to see that one but days of future past is still goated🔥💯
Yap
This movie while awesome kind of felt like damage control, wiping X-Men 3 and Origins - Wolverine from existence but keeping First Class in the canon. Well it's the best damn damage control ever then because this might be the best X-Men movie.
Yep that's basically what it is, it wiped the slate clean but hey who's complaining
As much I agree, I still wonder how they're gonna do the next movie when they know they can't do some of the same things twice...
My only big hope is for Rogue to get her own moments with Ms. Marvel powers!
***** what i meant was how they were gonna do another time travel movie different.
But no, you're right, there's still a lot they could do.
+Kolbe Howard But didn't it also wipe out X-Men 1 and X2?
Two fantastic movies.
+Kolbe Howard Not true Kolbe. This movie is not damage control. It's 5% damage control 95% awesome movie. This movie tells a great story with an intriguing plot along with great characters and some of the best action scenes in the X-Men series. Repairing the damage of The Last Stand and Origins was just an added benefit. At least it erased the 2 bad movies from the continuity.
2014 was a good year for Marvel
X-Men: Days of Future Past
Captain America: Winter Soldier
Guardians of the Galaxy and.....
Amazing Spider-Man 2😂😂😂
Poor Spidey 😂😂
LOL
When you first said it was disappointing I almost shed a tear.... Then I continued watching and all was good.
i know right I was like WTF
ikr but then he just explained how he was disappointed in brian singer not making all the x-men movies
ong
Well that intro didn't age well.
he didn't know...
He had high hopes
Keep Brett Ratner away from any X-men movie... or any comic book franchise ever!
Or any movie at all, that'd be even better.
Haha Agreed!!
Just take him and M Night, and lock them out of Hollywood.
and Shane Black.
Or any movie
I love X Men Days of Future past but I love the Rogue cut version of X Men Days of Future past evermore.
yup...same ...
yes it's better,because well,there are extra scenes of future sentinels
I think this movie was a better movie than any of the MCU films honestly.
Absolutely! The best of the MCU I would say is Cap 2 but this film had Oscar worthy acting. Great film.
Andy Wu No. Feige is responsible for the worst MCU outings. Let Singer be worthy competition to whatever Disney throws at them. X-Men is at it's best when it doesn't touch the Avengers, just like in the comics.
Nazrat84 hmm idk, a big part of the xmen comics is when they are part of the avengers
Andy Wu No they weren't, the biggest things were always X-Men exclusive. Stuff like Avengers vs. X-Men were small time in comparison to their individual major events.
I agree the highest selling Marvel comics were X-Men and Spider-Man comics. Fantastic Four as well in the 60s. The Avengers were pretty popular but not as popular. The 2012 film was pretty much was the first time the team was really mainstream. The Infinity War story lines were pretty popular though I guess.
X-Men -7/10
X2: X-Men United - 8.5/10
X-Men: The Last Stand - 5/10
X-Men Origins: Wolverine - 2/10
X-Men: First Class - 8/10
The Wolverine - 7/10
X-Men: Days of Future Past - 9/10
the first x men was better than the solo wolverine film but besides that this the most accurate comment ever
+StevenSoSmooth Williams They honestly have the Same amount of quality for me. But thanks!!!
X-Men - 9/10
X2: X-Men United - 8/10
X-Men: The Last Stand - 5/10
X-Men Origins: Wolverine - 4/10
X-Men: First Class - 9.5/10
The Wolverine - 7/10
X-Men: Days of Future Past - 8/10
X-Men: Apocalypse: 5.5/10
+oxXBLADEZXxo is apocalypse really that bad? :(
RyanTheRedLion A lot of people seemed to like it. I found it pretty mediocre
Thanks to days of the future past nothing in that last stand mess counts anymore. It never happened.
How can that NOT be a good thing, right?
Anyone else found Rebecca Romijn Mystique better?
As always, you're nt the only one jeeez
Rebecca was more awesome than Lawrence andthat shows that even she is a great actress she cant play in every fucking movie.
Jennifer Lawrence is less intimidating
I disagree, Romijin's was good, but I feel she didn't really understand the character. I personally like Jennifer Lawrence better, because I feel she makes it more "human" so I can relate to mystique/raven's character.
Its not her job to make it "Human" its her job to make it "Mutant".
While Marvel is sitting back and counting their money laughing, DC is in the fetal position crying. Lol.
What you mean? Dc is going to be awesome.
ChipChocolatePR Zack Snyder is directing it, and based on his track record it could be anything from amazing (Watchmen) to horrendously shit (Sucker Punch).
Yeah but the owners of marvel are a bunch of dick heads I hear so....
X-Men is Fox.
JJA8020 It all comes from Marvel though.
I think part of the reason this movies is so good is because of how little they showed in the trailer of both the story and action. I wish more movies would keep you from seeing everything in.the trailer the way tho one did.
So they DIDN'T blow all the surprises in the prerelease trailers and clips? Fancy that....and here I've been having to explain to all the trolls that a film like this is actually longer than the total 6 minutes of clip previews we'd seen before then.
It's because they marketed this movie well. I do agree that nowadays some trailers spoil too much of the movie and forget about the technique that are supposed to be used in a movie trailer like abruptly interrupting a scene where a character looks like he's about to die or something is coming at him/her. That technique is used to have people go see the rest of what was interrupted in the trailer. That's what trailers are there for. They're there to basically say to the audience, "Go see the movie if you want to see what happens to X, Y, and Z."
What are you saying :) they spoil a lot in those trailers
Like Godzilla.
X-Men- Blue Ray
X-Men 2- Awesometacular
X-Men The Land Stand- Good time if drunk
X-Men Origins- Dogshit
X-Men First Class- Awesometacular
The Wolverine- Blue Ray
X-Men Days of Future Past- Awesometacular
+Bruce Wayne fishing for likes copying Daniel Attrell's comment?
+Bethany Holmes No. I gave Last Stand good time if drunk and he gave it Tminus 1 day.
+Bruce Wayne Agree :)
+Bruce Wayne Great ratings I agree with you on all of them
I'd give The Wolverine good time if drunk or T-Minus one day *shrug*
How ironic! In college biology we learned that dwarfism is a mutation. So, the only real mutant in the movie plays the guy who builds the machines that kill mutants.
Also, this movie is only Awesometacular if you've seen every other X-Men movie to date. If you haven't seen the all the other movies, then this movie is nothing but a confusing mess.
not really, you could go in without seeing any and it'd be badass, youre trying to hate.
We knew that rating was coming before the click
That thing about the Dark Phoenix saga being done again? Yep, they still haven’t
I literally came back to this review for that reason lol no wonder he rated it dogshit.
@@pineapple7056 pray that the mcu does it right
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS PAST MAGNETO IS A BADASS!!
Pretty much everyone is a bad ass.
This movie was even better than The Avengers.
+Josh B easily
Yes. It is. Why? Phenomenal character development and tremendous casting. Marvels still got it, and Civil War was wonderful! But those two Avengers are more fluff and not too much substance. But Days of Future Past has so much to it than just "mutant powers" and "cool action."
It's better then the 2nd one for sure
I think Captain America was better though.
Josh B nah
Possibly the best X-Men movie to date, along with Logan
Fucking Brett Ratner ruined the series with Last Stand then Bryan Singer comes and fixes his mistakes, Bryan Singer is a god.
Except when he has to handle Superman.
JoseMunozV In fairness, how many people have actually ever gotten Superman RIGHT? I can think of only three: Paul Dini, Bruce Timm and Alan Burnett when they were doing the Superman animated series in the 1990s.
***** Blame auteur theory, Mr. Johnson, that persistent little meme that has been entrenched for a long time which says (sometimes erroneously) that the director is the actual author of the film. But unless you're Nolan or Hitchcock, that's rarely the case, as you've just pointed out.
I don't know what y'all are complaining about, superman returns to me is a better film than man of steel...the actor who played superman is a better fit too, there i said it...bring on the hate, anyway there are things still left unexplained in days of future past, i hate open ended endings, how come wolverine didn't remember what happened, he gets saved by mystique pretending to be william stryker, you would think she told him what happened, they didn't fix the time paradox , he lived through the altered timeline and he has been living in charles's mansion for many years...how come he just forgot, its not like bryan singer has all the answers
This is the best superhero movie since fucking dark knight its my second favourite superhero movie sorry watchmen looks like your third place now
Im ruining it for myself by wondering what was the point in getting magneto/erik? Charles, wolverine and hank couldve easily stopped raven. Erik wouldnt have tried to stop her and shot her in the process and the sentinel program wouldnt have been given the ok. Erik just made things more complicated than necessary lol. I loved the movie but thats just a plot hole i probably wont get over.
spanishforyou123 I agree with you. Getting Magneto out was pointless
but of course they were going to do that since they need him to play a big part in the movie.
spanishforyou123 i think its because they still thought mystique is with him and it would make it so much faster to find her as erik knows her best what she will do and where she could be
luntik700 i guess. only problem is erik is imprisoned so its obvious they're not together. idk..i'm complicating things lol
well yea not together but they might think she is following his cause which she isnt anyway but they didnt know that
I still don't think X-men 2 (X2 united) or The Wolverine (2013) were bad movies. I will stand by this statement until the end of time.
X2 is one of the very best superhero movies.
ExBruinsFan Yup, agreed. I think this matched it overall and was a wonderful apology for X-Men 3 and X-Men Origins Wolverine.
Few people I talk to say X2 is a bad movie, I think it i widely regarded as one of the best. Wolverine is decent at best, 6/10
Most consider X2 one of the greatest superhero films of all time, so you don't have to worry about people disagreeing with you. As for The Wolverine, its a decent film, that I don't think was terribly offensive to those who watched it.
Nobody said x2 was bad
I honestly don't understand how anyone could have fucked up the dark phoenix saga, shit, even the cartoon got it right!
You got that from honest trailers. I agree though.
Moviemaster21 Just cause a show had the same opinion doesn't mean I took it from them.
Yeah, way to rip off the phrasing that was originally said by Screen Junkies "Honest Trailers".
mad4song01 excuse me. was it copyrighted? o: if not, stfu whiny bitches lol
wait, why are people actually arguing over this.
Wolverine isn't even the star of this movie. This movie is more of a Professor X and Mystique movie. And please, don't comment "It's because of Jennifer Lawrence that Mystique is prominent in this movie" No... read the Days of Future Past comic book, Mystique is pretty important there too.
***** This comment sums up my feelings excactly
***** Romijin was better, but are you judging just based off looks? That's pretty shallow if you are, man.
I like that Wolverine's less of a main character this time round. I would have liked to have seen a little more of Havok & co though. Still a great movie though!
***** SPOILERS i wonder if now that they have pretty much corrected the errors from the third one and everyone from the original xmen is back in their role, they will go with romjin again rather than lawrence? would make sense to have her back now .
***** Mystique was a one-note character in all the prior movies. Mystique in First Class with Jennifer Lawrence was the first time that I realized (1) Mystique wasn't just a big boobed mannequin to please fan boys and (2) only Jennifer Lawrence could have delivered on this role which would have fallen flat if it had been given to someone else.
X-Men days of future past is my all time favorite action movie
Warning don't read comments Spoilers everywhere
thank you
Huh, yeah. Just like living a long life, you gotta breath
What a movie! This movie is far greater than Captain America. Best movie of the year so far! This is a 10/10 in my book. Something actually worth going to the theater for!
Debatable, but it's a good movie for sure.
I love that comic book movies are now bringing their A game.
I kind of was hoping for more screen time in XMDOFP for these characters...
Quicksilver
Havok
Toad
Quicksilver
Ink
Did I mention Quicksilver?
Cyclops
Bishop
Quicksilver
Quicksilver is gonna be in Xmen Apocalypse too and is gonna have a bigger role. So yeah.
Is it bad that when Jeremy said the movie is about "Hope" I immediately thought of Scott and Jean's daughter Hope Summers?
When the part where the scenes kept on switching between the future and the past (last 30 minutes) was intense!!
I agree and the best part of the movie
funny u didn't mention quicksilver's scene
Agree the Kitty Pryde 'time travel' thing was weird. But I could stretch my acceptance. Passing through matter, passing through time...sure. Hey, if it means undoing the damage of Last Stand...I'm good with it.
Really it was a great movie. I haven't been as huge with the x-men aside from the animated series (though I've enjoyed the good movies in this franchise). But this was good. It was a strong movie from start to finish. Maybe...maybe I'd have liked even more futuristic action, but I get they can only fit so much in there. The movie was so strong that the amount of action we got was fine.
Praise to Bryan Singer. Man has helped save the X-Men and now I'm hyped for what's next.
Let us also remember Matthew Vaughn, who, against a very tight deadline, managed to make this film even possible with his excellent "First Class".
Fиск Bryan Singer!
This movie puts anything marvel has done in the past (aside from the avengers) and puts it the fuck to shame. I've never even been a massive xmen fan, but this movie just has everything going for it. 10/10
No including Avengers, Avengers isn't as great as everyone acts
adammuntaser Acts? I'm pretty sure that when people say they really enjoyed Avengers, it's not an act. I put DOFP and AV right up there. Both AWESOME films.
Michael Bannerman I know it's a great movie I just think it's over exaggerated and doesn't deserve all the hype it gets
adammuntaser Fair enough. I can see why some people wouldn't think so.
Michael Bannerman Well than thank you for being the first rational person I met on TH-cam
MAJOR SPOILER BELOW!!!!!!!!
Batman dies
Sad...
The bat never dies.
TexasReppin210 I can't remember the exact name of it but Batman died at the end of a 2 part animated special of him vs Superman. Technically he won but heart attack killed him
TheLennyLegoShow It was originally a graphic novel created by Frank Miller, then adapted later into the cartoon you mentioned. It's called "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns". One of the greatest graphic novels ever created, one of the best animated adaptations of a comic book, and one of my personal favorites. The upcoming Batman vs Superman movie looks like it will be integrating some plot and elements from the graphic novel.
BTW, did you watch the cartoon to the very end? SPOILER ALERT................Batman lives.
Charles Griffin No I actually didn't
This is my favorite "X-Men" movie now. When it comes to comic book movies, the action is what ultimately blows me away but this movie's drama blew me away instead. There was just so much dramatic tension in the narrative. The climax had me so nervous I'm surprised I wasn't sweating bullets and hyperventilating while it was going down. More than anything, this movie was Bryan Singer's love letter to fans who have been there since the first movie. Some sequences are direct callbacks to signature sequences from the first two movies, particularly the second one. One scene involving Msytique and another involving Magneto notably resembled certain scenes from "X2" that I won't spoil because it's far more rewarding to see them for oneself. These scenes had me grinning immensely and the ending had me wanting to stand up in applause. Quite a few people actually did. Please, Bryan Singer, DON'T LEAVE US AGAIN!
***** I would argue that spectacle has its place but it is very, very nice when you can get what you're talking about in the bargain.
I never had any fears about this film being a mega-success from the first actual trailer I saw (now if I can just get around to seeing the film...it sucks to be without a car and poor!). All I had to do was remember going to see the first X-Men film in theaters with a friend of mine because the other options sucked. I even told her that if this film DID suck, I'd take full responsibility. Instead, I was blown away by how good it was...still am. So when I heard of Singer coming back and kept soaking up the drips of the film publicly released, I knew everything would be great. Good to know I was right!
***** Here that? That's me not arguing with you. On the other hand, I do wonder if the golden age of storytelling some folks like to bring up (not you, you understand, but some of the more witless like John Farr, whom I had an extended dukeout with over the course of a month on HuffPo) is as good as they say.
0:05 and we still haven't to this day....nope....
To me Kitty Pride being able to send people back in time makes sense. She has powers that don't conform to the typical physicality of space and time. She can go through objects and can go through time.
I hope at the end credits we see Cyclops return
It's better than that XD
socialite121
Ok I have to know what it is.
oh my fucking gosh I wanna know what it is to lol!!
ynotbelieve7
God, Cyclops is the worst.
Primus1985 *SPOILER ALERT* You see Apocalypse
Now if only we could get a decent Deadpool movie..
Same gut though
***** Bilbo Baggins has spoken!

The dark Phoenix
I want to come out of the movie theater as satisfied as I was when I saw winter solider I hope this x men movie does it for me
It'll do it. Best X-Men movie so far, for me and a bunch of people I know.
In all honesty, X-Men isn't my number 1 fav movie franchise but I walked out of this film more satisfied than anything I've seen ever.
You will. It's really good. A high point for the series.
Well considering how many shortcomings The Winter Soldier had, if you were able to walk out satisfied, then there's no reason why you shouldn't easily be able to enjoy this.
Chris Dynamo Seriously please tell me. what do you mean when you say Cap 2 had short comings. I think it was the best marvel movie but, I would like to hear your opinion.
I guess if kitty can for through walls she can GO THROUGH TIME!!! I guess
Well if she can g through time then maybe she can also go through spacetime.
She cant, she can let people go through time
Gregory mantonios Yeah I know,and even then its only their conciousness,she basiclly can go through spacetime,its just that time have much more limitations then space.
In the comic it's Kitty who goes back in time to warn everyone, she dosen't send anyone. But hey, we need to have Wolverine in the 70:s so why not.
Seriously, anybody trying to rationalize Kitty's time travel powers sound retarded, because the notion of it is pretty retarded. If anything, the powers seemed to be more telepathic in nature since she was transporting the consciousness of a person into their earlier body. This is the reason why it was Rachel Summers who did it in the comic, and why they should've just made Professor X the one to perform it. Would've made a helluva lot more sense (especially the part when Charles communicates with old Charles through Logan), and the plot could've played out basically the same.
this was better than all avengers related movies
burningknight7 Giving it a lot of though, I have to agree with you. It's probably coz it's a lot darker then most Marvel movies.
Infinity war better
"Out of the way, bitches...its my franchise."
I loved that line from you, Jeremy; it fits so many aspects of this series very well. I could imagine Singer actually saying that to the pompous Fox execs who only care about money.
I would've liked few more flashbacks showing the Sentinels rising up and killing mutants... mainly cos the sentinels are freaking amazing and i just wanted to see more of them but besides that the movie was brilliant
i completely agree
*****
You will not be disapointed... :)
I came back to this after his dark Phoenix review. Way to go Jeremy. You called them making it. Little did you know that the last stand actually would end up being better
this movie was really awesome but it raised a few questions though...like why is kitty suddenly able to send people through time? or why does magneto have back his powers when he lost them in X3? or why does wolverine have his metal claws when he lost them in his last movie?
if you have seen it u will understand
If you recall. At the end of X3 he moves the chest pieces with his powers. It wasn't a permanent cure too the powers . View it as an allergy pill. Gets rid of them for a while. But they'll be back. Hope that gave you an idea. And for wolverine losing his claws i don't know what your referring too.
Javon Morrisey
He's referring to the second Wolvering movie where his adamantium claws get chopped off by the silver samurai.
Oh Alright.
Mystique took him by the end of of DOFP posing as striker so that's how he got his claws back. And since they changed the future I guess wolverine never went to japan
kitty probably bends space-time, that would explain her spacebending to walk through walls, aand also manipulate time. that is my only most logicall explanation
I love the fact that Jeremy was so jazzed about the "X2" theme playing at the start. I'm a bit of a geek when it comes to film scores, and the fact that Singer and the composer John Ottman brought back a lot of the themes from "X2" in this film and "Apocalypse" actually meant a lot to me. It's a shame that so many sequels and franchises these days don't keep consistent musical themes between films. Music is just as important as the image onscreen much of the time, and recurring themes always subtly tie franchises together and give them a certain sense of consistency in my opinion. It's just... special to hear a recognizable theme.
I'm really hoping that if the next film really is a Phoenix-saga film like some are theorizing that they retain the themes and music as they have with the past few films.
Just watched it, loved it but there are just some minor nitpicks about the movie.
1) I know we are all pretending X-3 and Origins: Wolverine didn't happen, but I wished Bryan Singer managed to string everything together, even if he was going to reboot the continuity. DOFP didn't explain how Prof X is back alive and in a hoverchair (I know this was hinted at the end of X-3, but still), how Origins fitted into the timeline and I was hoping Quicksilver would be that link (Since we saw him/some other speedster in Origins). Oh well, guess even Bryan Singer couldn't fix that trainwreck.
2) How Wolverine got his metal claws back (I read somewhere that Magneto might have had something to do with it, but also, unexplained) and Kitty's power upgrade. Hopefully this will show up in the extended edition.
3) Almost 80% of the First Class mutants were killed off screen or had like 10 second cameos which is a huge shame cos it made First Class feel kinda irrelevant.
4) No Stan Lee lol.
First Class was "reboot" if yo will,wich measn Deadpool isn't ruined.
He didnt reboot anything, this is a retcon.
1) in the same way that all the comics don't completely fit together, there is no need to force every single movie in the marvel universe to follow cannon verbatim. Would you rather they deliver a fun, entertaining movie or force all these movies to work together as a whole?
2) It doesn't matter how he got his claws back....that story is completely irrelevant to the plot of this particular movie.
3)First class had too many mutants anyway. Again, they were not necessary to tell this story.
4) I did miss stan lee. I'm sure he's in there somewhere.
Spoiler video?
Another weird thing, is that Origins and X-3 did happen, because when Xavier in he past searches Logan's memories, he finds the events of X-3 and Origins, with Wolverine being made into the first weapon X and Logan killing Jean.
Awesometacular, huh? Guess I'll have to see it :D
Yes. Yes you do. :)

Fair enough :D I wasn't very excited, since I was not impressed by First Class, but hearing that it's awesome...

This movie was basically "yeah, let's forget that X-Men 3 ever existed". About time.
I seriously can't understand why many don't notice the severe setbacks that this movie has (spoiler warning from here). For starters, it introduces several new characters we didn't met before, like that portal chick (Blinx, I believe?) who are just there to give you nothing but cool action scenes and get killed; Shadowcat can transport persons back to the past, a power she never showed before, with no explanation ever given; Storm barely has a role in this movie and in the biggest slap to the face in the whole movie series, gets unceremoniously killed off very soon into the final battle in the future; the movie does not explain how Charles was revived, and even watching X3's post-credits scene, something many didn't, all is too cryptic, neither is it explained how Logan got back his adamantium claws when they were clearly shown to have been cut off in The Wolverine, and the whole thing with the Sentinels doesn't even make sense. Why didn't they appear before? Not explained. Why was Mystique's DNA applied only until much later when it was supposedly taken in the 70s? Never addressed.
Sorry, but the convoluted plot full of holes and inconsistencies cannot be ignored and don't allow me to give this movie more than a "no alcohol required" rating, which is good, but nowhere near the overrated reviews many have been giving this movie.
So its overrated because a lot of people enjoyed it and you didn't?
Jaime Mora
Did you read what I what I wrote? No, it's not because many praise it. It's because it is convoluted, confusing and has even more plot holes and unexplained things than X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
The only huge plot hole was how Professor X was brought back to life. The other two minor ones where Wolverine getting his metal claws back, and how Kitty discover her time traveling powers. Though an explanation would have been nice it wasn't that big of a deal. I am sure they manage to get Wolverine's metal claws back somehow, and Kitty's power are just a secondary mutation.
Though it would have been cool to know a little more about the new mutants, there just mutants trying to survive the Sentinel ruled world. So Storm was killed, what of it? She is still alive with time changing, and she died in the comic book version too.
I am sure they didn't have the technology to utilize Mystique's DNA into the Sentinels at the time.
Jaime Mora
It's true the synthetic sentinels couldn't be made at the time, but the movie still clearly shows that there were sentinels in the 70s and it doesn't explain why they weren't used.
And it's not that Storm gets killed. It's how she got killed and how early it was into the fight. She barely even appeared in the movie, and that is a big setback.
Also, tell me, how are you going to not explain the fact that a mutant with no time travel powers, which is a very big deal, and with powers that are completely unrelated to time travel, suddenly can send people back in time? Sorry, it doesn't make sense and it just confuses you a lot.
And having too many characters you didn't even know of is throwing too much at you. It's unsettling and you can't even relate to them that much because they barely get character development. Like I said, they are just there to give cool fight scenes that make you turn your brain off.
We both have very different perspective on the movie, just like everyone else lol of course theres nothing wrong with that. As far as Kitty's time traveling powers, it really isn't a big deal there are several mutants who have gone through a secondary mutation that are completely unrelated to their primary mutations. Examples: Emma Frost primary power is telepathy, and her second mutation is her diamond form.
Yes, Kitty can "walk through walls", but her power is technically altering the third dimension. It makes sense for her powers to increase to be able to alter the fourth.
Ok, so the X Men saved the day by sending Wolverine back in time, now we X Men fans need to find a way to send Brian Singer back in time so that he directs X Men 3 instead of Mr. What's his name who screwed it up! Anyone got a Delorean?
is awesometacular > buy on blue ray?
nothing
tectash Actually, good time if you are drunk and not going to remember it should be switched around.
sonicshuffler switch good time if you're drunk and you won't remember it in x amount of time, and you're right.
I'm going to borrow this idea from Spoony's review, but it's an interesting take, that maybe Peter Dinklage was cast on purpose. He said he admired mutants, and he himself is technically a mutation, but without cool powers like mutants. So he possibly built the sentinel program as a ventilation of his jealousy.
Interesting idea, but no. Pure stunt casting due to industry popularity.
It would have been cool, if the sentinels had registered Trask as a mutant, though.
Spoony sold out to his GF. She loved it, and he trashed it for two hours, and then said he liked it. I like her, but she's clearly leading him by the dick.
What I love about this movie is that it had the sentinels in it(finally), cool action scenes, high stakes, a great end credit scene (not going to spoil it), and most importantly it undid the really terrible x-men 3.
Yes, I absolutely LOVED the end-credits scene. Gets us ready doesn't it.
The movie was good I enjoyed it, but it also pissed me off the reason why this movies pissed me off is because...
*major spoiler*
Every single X-Men get their ass handed to them horribly in very pathetic ways.
The X-Men are suppose to be the *BEST OF THE BEST* and yet they all get buttstomp by few Sentinels I must admit that i have no idea how strong these Sentinel are, but come on this was embarrassing...
Storm did put up a fight, but she was stab in the back and there she goes down first... (Yeah right)
Colossus easily get rip in half as easily as you can break a spaghetti stick in half. *Lol*
Bishop didn't do shit and he get totally destroy by three lazer hitting him...
Sunspot was cool and did put up a fight, but didn't do any damages he was easily defeated and stabbed and then throw away like trash.
Iceman was the most useless and pathetic one he hold off the sentinel for what? 5-10 seconds and then get kill right away by few lazer... *(This was very sad to watch...)*
Magneto even him was kind of useless, but he was old and the sentinel wasn't made of metal, but I think he could have done more stuff to help, he was hit by something and then retreat to safety as far as I know he didn't die.
Blink is the only one who actually put up a fight was she was the last one standing until three sentinel stab her.
Xavier didn't do anything during the fight and he didn't die.
Wolverine doesn't count since he wasn't really there.
And the other are not important.
So yeah so much for the best mutant team ever crushed super easily like little ants.
Anyone can tell me why they were killed so easily?
The sentinels adapted to counteract their abilities dude. Colossus was ripped in half because the sentinels began to be composed of the same metal that colossus is made out of so his advantage was completely nulified. Bishop was able to kill several sentinels before he got killed. The one you called pyro was actually sunspot and I agree he didn't do shit, even when the sentinels were clearly not affected by his flames he continued to spray them instead of retreating to a better position.
*****
I see I didn't know Bishop actually killed something since I was watching it in a Cine parc and I didn't saw anything during the fighting scene it was too dark. lol
Achille12345 You know, I feel you, I get what you're saying. But this weren't any ol' Sentinels, I mean, even those Sentinels are designed to kill mutants and they get mad strength in numbers. But this guys... were like a version of Nimrod. If you know your X-men, Nimrod's one tough cookie. I wasn't disappointed, I actually love how Dire it was cause that's basically what happens in the comic, the original one. They get pwned by the *commom* sentinels.
Roman Romero Ramirez The future ones were scary O_O, and yeah, because of how powerful they were with the ability to adapt and such, it pretty much made them the equivalent of the Nimrod sentinel
Achille12345 we noticed you couldn't see much, the whole point of the movie was that the sentinels were fucking OP and the only way to survive was to "travel" to the past and stop raven/mistique before she killed trask, get caught and started the OP Sentinels and the war.
I didn't know Kitty Pride had that power could she do that in the comics?
Best movie in the Marvel Universe ever. It is up there alongside Spiderman 2
Nice movie review Jeremy! Well ladies and gents.. you can now be Certain that with the good reviews, The X-Men franchise will NEVER go back to Marvel.. and Fox will make sure of that, lol
"Its not their pain you're afraid of....its yours" "Charles, we need you to hope again". Can this franchise get any better?
"Out of the way! This is my franchise!" SPOT. FREAKING. ON. Loved this movie :D I don't care if it's different from the comics or 90s series. These are good enough to stand on their own
We’re you on coke when you did this one. 😂
Best X-Men Movies:
1. Days of Future Past
2. Logan
3. First Class
4. X2
5. Deadpool
Until your video, I didn't even know that the guy from the film "Wanted," James McAvoy (looked up his name), was the same guy portraying Professor Charles Xavier. What a transformation. If someone had suggested to me years ago that he would be portraying Xavier (the older or younger version), I would have thought of him as miscast for the role.
yeah, and he's the one playing as Mr Tumnus in the first Narnia movie, Lion, the Wicth and The Wardrobe. I never consider him as a hot guy before Wanted >w
When I first came out of the cinema I felt like I still didn't really like him as Charles. I've watched it a couple more times since then and he's grown on me.
Who’s here after watching Dark Phoenix review 😭
Theory on Kitty Pride's time travel ability.
When she's travelling through walls she's actually sending herself forward / back in time to when there was no wall there, and then back to current days as she comes out of the wall
Sweet, Jeremy hasn't given a movie an "awesometacular" in a while.
Captain America - Winter Solider he gave Awesometacular
***** he said "in a wihle". Captain American was quite a while ago
Oh I think I forgot to see that review.
Should i watch xmen days of future past before i watch xmen apocalypse?
+ND7652 ok thanks!!!
Don't watch X- Men Apocalypse.
About Kitty... It's just an additional power she gets when she's older. In X2 and X3 she was still young and her mutant abilities hadn't fully developed yet.
Good point! Add in a likely mandatory study of quantum physics (hey, if your molecules can pass through solid matter, it might be a good idea to find out how you can do that better as time goes by!) and the time travel thing only makes more sense.
makes sense i guess...
+JeremyJahns you should do reviews for the original trilogy before apocalypse comes out.
Ok, only 1 major question: HOW THE HECK IS XAVIER IN THIS MOVIE?!! He died! And, Magneto got shot by that cure. Same as Rogue. Jean died, but I don't know if she's in there. Ugh, this doesn't make SENSE!! SOMEONE, PLEASE explain!!
Logan basically changed the course of history, because what happened whem he went back didnt happen from his original time line everything had the potential to takr different little turns. Basically the first 3 movies dont matter anymore. Beast and scott and jean are all alive and everythings okay (for now). Logan was the only one sent back so his conciousness just plopped into the new timeline. Since trask is alive and magneto knows about the sentinels theyll probably be in the next movie and if you stayed for the end credits apocolypse is the new villain.
Some of this and one or two other things are not really explained. Its a bit of a bummer. We will have to for now think of our own shit.
i think this is the timeline of x men first class, which does not necessarily is conected to the events of the trilogy, so theres a whole sory we dont really know during that time period
wibily wobily timey wimey?
Watch x men 3 again..... U will find ur answers... Megnito at the end moved chess peace with his power and professor transferred himself to another body... Thats the scene after credits.... Look for it you will find it...
On KITTY PRYDE: TIME is a dimension. Kitty pride already uses her abilities to phase through solid matter (using the 4th dimensional space to bypass 3D solid objects) it's only a tiny stretch of her powers that gets you from there to TIME TRAVEL. She phases through 5th dimensional space to bypass the 4th dimension (time).
Which, by the way, is roughly in line with current quantum theory, where particles do such time traveling on a regular basis.
wait there was and end credit scene. i waited the it had the rolling up credits but there was a scene at the very end?
Yeah, at the very end of the credits. Sadly had to sit through the whole thing this time to see it.
what happened
Tyler McGee Apocalypse teasing
Tyler McGee They basically set up the villain for the next movie.
Juan Pablo Rueda With the Four Horsemen standing watch as well.
Wow, was this movie really that good? I wasn't so sure because of Bryan Singers. I'm not big fan of is movies. I guess he had to step up big time after Matthew Vaughn's First Class.
Do remember that Singer was the one who made the franchise possible with the first two films. But, yeah, let's give props to Matthew Vaughn, who had a hand in this production as well and made DOFP possible with his James Bond take on the X-Men.
Azatarot75
I agree with salamander337. I've never been impressed with the Brian Singer X-Men films simply because they never had any good action scenes. It was all about story, and no good action.
It was that good. I typically don't enjoy the X-Men movies, but a friend of mine wanted to see it and Marvel's been pretty impressive this year, so I went to see it. I knew nothing about it going so I really had no level of expectations. I ended up really enjoying it.
NewCanadianTurtle And what, precisely, is wrong with story? Still, I do see your point...and maybe it took "Superman Returns" and "Jack the Giant Killer" to teach Singer how to do action credibly.
43jenp Marvel yes but not Fox. The X-Men rights is owned by Fox, not Marvel Studio. The Avengers, Capt America, Thor, Iron Man, and the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy are owned by Marvel Studio. While Spider-man is owned by Sony.
This is crazy… your video style has NOT changed!! Awesome to see you stay true to yourself
I'd glad this movie is great, but.........I liked Xmen United too ._.
Awesome review Jeremy. I fucking loved this movie so good. Great times acting Bryan Singer's come home where he belongs! I gave it my Bad Ass Seal Of Approval. Can't wait for X-Men: Apocalypse.
The scene where Bobby got decapitated nearly made me cry
I have one question, is Cyclops still dead? Cause after that happened, I wiped my hands of this Xmen movie franchise.
Cyclops has been brought back from the dead along with Jean Grey thanks to Days of Future Past. You'll know why once you see the film.
No because they fixed everything in the past
***** Well, yeah...I've not seen the film and it's safe to assume that changing the timeline means the dead live again if done right.
Azatarot75 Key Words: "If done right"
Damian Clark Oh, are we going to start that bandwagon again? Don't poopoo the second chance until AFTER they've blown it...provided that they ever do!
My question is does this movie basically re-write or change the events of X men Last Stand?
More like erasing the events of Last Stand.
oh okay gotcha! So I'm guessing the X men franchise will continue to live on after the Apocalypse movie
The producer herself said that Last Stand is no longer canon. It's pretty bad when even the studio admits that it's so shit they don't want any part of it.
cloudparter I was hoping that was the case. I didn't even care to know when he appeared at the end of "The Wolverine." Now give us Jean Grey and Cyclops back and all will be truly forgiven.
ieberhart87 Yeah.. it was never explained clearly how Charles Xavier is still around (even in the dystopian future). Luckily the whole days of future past just tells you to forget what happened between the past of 'days of future past' up to the future. Only First Class and the 'Past' events of this film is part of the new timeline.
I love how vital they've made mystique in this movie. in the other movies she was just there but now it's like they've snaped her but made her so important with different reasons
Jeremy! Spoiler review man it has to be done!
give him a few days at least
I'll wait till the sentinel apocalypse for Jeremy's spoiler review
I assume this must be a tough one since it´ss a time travel movie? maybe it will require a second watch.
Probably my favorite X-Men film.
What I love about this movie is that since the past change not only for everyone but for Logan as well that means X-men 3 and X-men Origins no longer happened. This means the Deadpool movie won't have crappy elements from X-men Origins and will have a fresh story.
Dang. Everyone in the world seems to think this movie was amazing, but I was like the only one min my theatre that was just bummed by it haha. I can't quite put a finger on what was wrong with this movie, but I just felt no threat at all from any of the events. Which is really weird, because there were super threatening situation sin this movie! I don't know, there was something about it that felt off to me, and so I had to rush back to the theatre the next weekend to rewatch the incredible Godzilla movie haha.
You are not alone. There are many who dislike the movies but they are not as vocal as the positive viewers. I think many of the original X-men comic fans don't like the direction the movies are going.
Enjoy your 15 seconds of fame, Mr. Stock. People will still love the movie after they've forgotten you.
There were a number of mistakes - this reviewer obviously does not know what he is talking about as he does not even understand the Kitty Pride bit where if he did he would know of her powers and the reasons for them and that she was the one who originally went back. I want to know why everyone seems to forget the lead in at the end of The Wolverine was completely forgotten about and not linked up to the beginning of this movie at all. I see it as just a lead in movie to Age of Apocalypse which I am very excited for. BTW Bishop holds his own against an army of sentinels for a bit there so he does do something. Trash was awesome I agree there. Another problem was they did not explain how pro X comes back after being vaporized by Dark Phoenix in Xmen 3!
Al Harding Sigh...for a self-professed fan, your last statement tells me, yet again, that somebody missed the post credits scene of X3. As for the rest, when something is this successful, nobody really gives a shit except nitpickers like you.
Azatarot75 I agree with Al actually and I was saying the same thing about the post credits scene from The Wolverine not matching up at all. To be frank, it's the culmination of all the little changes and inconsistencies like this made with all the X movies that makes them less than stellar.
TALK ABOUT QUICKSILVER!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOoooooooo HE DIDNT MENTION QUICKSILVER!!!!! *sigh*
One word, supercool :)
He'll definitely do a spoiler talk, don't worry! But seriously, Quicksilver was fucking awesome.
I think maybe the reason Kitty Pride can send people through time is not that her powers make her able to walk through walls, but she can bend space and time and stuff, so really she might be sending the walls and crap she touches back in time or forward of whatever to whenever it didn't exist.
PLOT HOLE(S):
1. If Wolverine's mind has the ability to heal under "critical conditions" (Kitty Pryde mind-warping Wolverine's mind into the past), then how come his mind can't heal from the adamantium gunshot wounds that he suffered from in "X-Men: Wolverine Origins?"
2. Why not send Wolverine back in time to "a couple weeks" before the Paris Peace Accords (The place where Mystique is suppose to kill Bolivar Trask) instead of "a couple days" before the event so that they wouldn't be so pressed for time to find Mystique?
3. Why didn't they CONTINUE to use Quicksilver to help them with the mission after they freed Magneto from the Pentagon (They could have used Quicksilver's superspeed to stop Mystique from shooting President Nixon and Bolivar Trask)
4. How does Magneto's manipulation of the Sentinels allow for him to control the "computer systems" of the Sentinels and stop them from attacking him as a mutant? (His magnetism only controls metal NOT computer system functions)
5. Since Mystique's powers only copy the physical appearance of humans/mutants and NOT their powers, then how can the Future Sentinels copy the powers of other mutants if they function from her DNA?
6. What "real need" was there for them to free Magneto from The Pentagon if they were easily able to proceed with the mission after Magneto runs away from them after the Paris Peace Accords? In fact, why burden themselves with the mission of breaking out Magneto, in the first place, when they could have just skipped that and just taken Quicksilver with them to the Paris Peace Accords and just used his superspeed to prevent Mystique from beating up everyone in the room and attempting to shoot Bolivar Trask?
All in all, I LOVE the film and give the film a 8.7/10.
1.His consciousness can survive in the past, but only if he maintains peaceful thoughts. Kitty Pride is just holding the balance. As soon as something upsets or distracts him - like the time he remembered Stryker, he is no good.
2. It is because they are hiding in the future, or our current present where there is a great danger from sentinels. If the sentinels find them or kill them before changing the past it is all over. They were in a hurry.
3.Silver is just a kid and a small thief. They did not want to drag him to fight in their war, or allow to someone capture him on a film.His mother was already aplogizing to wolverine, charles and hank before they meet him.
4.Maybe that metal somehow fused or integrated with the motherboard(lol). It is a comic book plot ''mechanism''.
5. Her DNA was used so sentinels can adapt to mutant attacks not copy their power. Then in the future would just find countermeasure for the attack. You could see in the end that most of the time sentinels just stab mutants to kill them.
6. Quicksilver can't affect her mindset. Magneto was closer to her than anybody else. Since Magneto is ultimate mutant who fights for mutant liberty and rights, Charles thought that he could persuade her not to kill Trask.
There you go!
