Viewing Notes

I wasn’t expecting much but generally speaking, I liked it enough. There were certainly some cringe-worthy moments, Psylock’s outfit being one of them. Psylock standing at Auschwitz in that costume another.

I’ve really grown tired of Magneto as a character. His seesawing back and forth between “good” and “evil” is tiresome and the reasons for flipflopping are generally pretty shallow and/or make huge leaps. Meh.

In general the X-Men timeline has become a fairly confusing mess as well.

I did like Storm, Cyclops and Jean Grey but Quicksilver’s scenes steal the show; pretty great stuff!
