X-Men Movies - the best and the worst reviews

  • 8 years ago
X-Men Origins: Wolverine - The film’s action is lackluster, the visual effects are sloppy and roughshod, and the storytelling is an absolute disaster. X-Men: The Last Stand - it marks the moment where this series started getting really shaky, and it took a few movies until the ship could be righted. X-Men: defined what a superhero movie could do by grounding the film with real emotions and real characters. X-Men: Days of Future Past: The future-set sequences are wonderfully dynamic, and showcase various new mutant powers with the added bonus of killing characters over and over again thanks to the introduction of time travel. X2: was heralded as a superior sequel and potentially genre-defining superhero film, but doesn’t quite hold up as the new classic some claimed it would be X-Men: First Class - is a delightful and surprisingly emotional 60s romp that offers audiences a chance to be reintroduced to these iconic characters with new interpretations.
