Wow what a movie. Though missed the long cadmium nails of Wolverine but what a movie. Real thrill from the beginning to the end and for the first time I felt that the antagonist should have been the protagonist. And the movie did manage to revive some memories of THE MATRIX. But way to go. An all round movie for mutant watchers.
The movie deals with the beginning of the end and what a way to introduce to where it all started. Charlese Xaviers to say does not seem to be quite a strong character. He has his own tricks but still he does not seem like the one capable of being in the lead. On the other hand we have Erik aka Magneto who in every sense is capable of being a superhero except for his hatred for humans. But he did deliver a performance worthy of X-Men. The movie tells the friendship that existed between Charles and Erik and how they ended up being against each other at the end. The point of difference being Humanity. But screw humanity when we have such a good movie to pass the time. The movie is quite steady introducing mutants as the movie proceeds. We even come across some characters who I don't remember featuring in earlier movies. But anyways who cares about that. The friendship between Charles and Mystique is another notable event in the franchise. The movie is all mutantization , very less human involvement and that is what makes the movie more appealing. And the last scene where Erik stops all the missiles thrown at the beach, reminded me of NEO from THE MATRIX who did all the same with bullets and many more things some 10 years back. But the particular scene was worth the movie. It summed up everything the movie was all about.
The acting was much of non existent. No emotional drama in the movie which was a real boon for me. Everybody did pitch in with their acts. But the real limelight was Erik and The Beast, both summing up varied performances but really fitting. Erik is magnetic, Frost is sexy in her outfit (I failed to notice her performance). The rest are noteworthy.
But surely a well paced thrilling insight into the world of mutants. Don't miss it. 4 Stars will be good for it.
