I liked this movie more than Avengers.

Best opening ever. lol

Quick Silver does have the best sequence and the score that they chose is pretty great!

I LOVED the movie, in fact, I loved it so much that first thing I did when i came back home is rewatch all of the x men movies from start, that's what a movie is supposed to do , make you interested again in the universe, and it did that perfectly.

I think to clarify, when someone "nitpicks", it's NOT because a film didn't work. Nitpicking is when someone really looks for things to be critical about because they want to find some and be contrary. Such an individual finds things to complain about that are extremely minor, so minor that the average person wouldn't give two seconds thought to those same things enough to even mention it.

Phew! So happy/relieved the consesus seems to be it's a great installment. Can't wait to see it!

I loved this so much, I'm more excited for Apocalypse than Batman v Superman now.

I think it's going to be hard for Aaron Taylor Johnson to beat Evan peters as quicksilver. He has become one of my favorite superheroe

A fantastic film in every possible way! I cannot believe how good it turned out when it could've gone so horribly wrong.

I saw X Men- Days Of Future Past and despite my fears of a repeat of the ill fated X Men-The Last Stand, i was surprisingly impressed. He did it! Bryan Singer pulled it off and squeezed a big story into 2hrs 10mins without forgetting the plot and losing control..Brilliant loved it.

Best opening to any of your reviews Grace. Your sentiment is echoed throughout the X-Men movie franchise.

Xmen is badass loved it. but one thing I don't understand is why are critics giving the spidey movie bad ratings. When hear many of the fans it was great. Someone plzz explain

Thanks for the great review, Grace! Watched the film, loved every single second of it, from the beginning of the gruesome battle against the future sentinels (why their created advanced technology completely links every character on the show, both past & future) to the end with the message of HOPE has been restored. One of the best, if not the greatest X-MEN movie since X2, apart from the nostalgic elements of bringing the characters from the first trilogy. It's definitely a great mix of grit, action, effects & how the sequences are all linked so well together.I am superbly impressed with Singer, he has done a fantastic job, which he totally rescued the movie franchise & restoring faith in the hearts of the comic-book fans. Most importantly, him handling a huge cast, and the amount of screen time from each character, magnifies his brilliant direction & artistry! It's like every character was given a fair amount of screen time & relevance without feeling overstuffed, losing focus & wondering why certain characters were underused or why-are-they-even-there? (YES, BRETT RATNER, I AM TALKING TO YOU!) (SPOILER ALERT!) Seeing the altered future after defeating Boliviar Trask & aborting the Sentinels project, was completely satisfying although it's heart-wrenching to watch my favorite characters in the future brutally killed by the Sentinels! Actually, they are really scary (which is good thing) Watching the key characters coming back to life which Brett Ratner mercilessly killed off from the previous franchise was AWESOME to the max! (Yes, Kelsey Grammar, Famke Jaansen & James Marsden - SCREAMS!) Lastly, big scream for the few secs cameo of Rogue (Much gratitude to Singer for not cutting Anna Paquin from the movie completely!)

Quicksilver was an absolute scene stealer...I wanted More! Great Movie!

Question : I am trying tho get into the X-Men comics. Does Amy body have a good starting point that is recent?

Grace should I see this movie in 3d or would it not make a great deal difference and hinder the movie going experience?

Your review has made me 100x more hyped for this movie. I'm seeing it tomorrow! *Mutant and proud*

Ok if you actually like a movie then I know I'm going to LOVE!! This movie. Plus X2 was my most favorite xmen movie out of all the others.

I really want to see your spoiler review since I'm so hyped for this movie and want to hear all I can about how great it was. But on the other hand I want to go into it surprised when I watch the movie. ...Must resist.

Great review Grace!! It will come tomorrow in my country so I don't want spoilers but I need to ask 1 thing. Is Rogue in the movie?

Nostalgia and Promise are a big part of why I loved Godzilla and ASM2. So I guess I'll give this one a shot.

?: Grace, love your channel! You mentioned that one of the emotions you have after walking out after a well done film in a cinematic universe, is "I can't wait to see the next one." Would a studio ever consider releasing films concurrently in theaters from the same universe, in order to capitalize on this excitement or momentum? I think as the lines between quality tv and movies keep getting rewritten, this would be a very interesting move. Why might this move work or not work, and if a franchise were to try it, which would most likely succeed?

I loved it and I totally get what you said about wanting to see the next one right away. The story feels far from finished but at the same time satisfies. And quicksilver was totally awesome!

I can't wait to see it but, the theater I'm going to only has it in 2D and 3D no IMAX. Would it still be best to see it in 3D for first time viewers of 3D?

Great review Grace. You just reaffirmed my commitment back to this franchise.

In the future part I actually thought blink was a stand out character her fight scenes were amazing they used her powers so well hats off to who ever made those scenes

I enjoy your reviews!!!! Keep them coming!!!!

Is this movie a changing of the guard for the cast (a la Star Trek Generations) such that future X-Men movies will have the young cast as the "today" cast?

Holy shit, Grace! You have 250 thousand subscribers! :O I haven't checked since before you cancelled the audience reviews when you only had a few thousand! WOW!!! Congrats! :D

I wished that they had kept Kitty as the one who time traveled, she is my favorite x-man ever! but I do love some Hugh Jackman

Grace going to see X2 with her parents is just about the cutest thing I've heard. She should be cast as Miss Marvel.

Hey Grace I'm a big fan of your videos, it's my number one spot of movie news Anyway I wanted to start reading comics including x-men where would you recommend I start? Also I really want to read the days of future past story did I need to read anything before that to get a better understanding of the storyline?

I loved the film and couldn't be happier that singer is back at the helm, but I didn't understand what the end credit scene was about and I am trying to figure out how wolverine has his metal claws in the future as in the wolverine they get reduced back to bone claws.

I agree with your review Grace. I saw an early release this tuesday and this movie was amazing. Quicksilver debut has got to be one of the best scenes in the movie. love your reviews.

I agree with what you're saying in this review Grace but I have to say that this movie was, in my opinion, a strong enough movie that it didn't feel as just a setup for Apocalypse. Loved your review and keep up the good work!

Right on point about "nitpicking a film" Grace! :) Great review as always

Did they bring Rouge back?

I love that you look for all the same components of these superhero movies as me. I'll make sure to come to this channel before I watch a movie from now on.

*X-Men: Evolution* was the only comic-based cartoon I watched every Saturday as a kid (excluding Static Shock), so I love the films & knowing this one is great..?? I am so, so, *so* bloody excited to see *DOFP*..! #stoked !

Lupita Nyongo as storm? What do you think? Could this happen since she won an oscar?? Thanks great review :)

I LOVED this movie, as a movie fan AND an X-men fan. It also really touched me emotionally. The only problem I have with the movie was that it lacked a great score like X-men First Class (Also a movie that I loved!), and that it was in some moments poorly edited. (I blame John Ottman).

Thank you for saying I don't need to see it in 3d at the end there. I always count on your non spoiler reviews to tell me if I should see a movie in 3d or not.

As I thought about Magneto putting metal into the Sentinels it seemed it he only controlled their gun arms which the metal could probably pull the trigger. He did let the one Sentinel on the lose to kill Hank and Logan. I also think their was just an on switch that was easily pulled. These are my thoughts. He was unable To control the main program, but was able to have a puppet on a string with metal.

Totally agree with you Grace, X2 is one of if not my favorite comic book movie of all time. I still watch it now for the simple reasons that you so eloquently noted. Great story, cast, pacing, etc. Great review.

it has now averaged out to a Certified 91% on rotten tomatoes. This movie is going to be epic!!!!!!!!!!

Grace plz answer me why is that in the end of Spider Man 2 they showed x-men days of of future past but are not allowed to use mutants

I wish Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver's twin sister, would have been referenced. Thats the only real problem I have. Overall great movie.

Saw it this past Sunday. It was awesome.

It says somewhere they're calling the accuser's creditability into question so maybe Bryan singer didn't do it

One thing I also appreciated was that the film wasn't solely about Wolverine. There was space for many other characters to shine it really felt like an ensemble film and not Wolverine & The X-Men. Even though Wolverine is my 2nd favorite X-Men, I think he's always amazing when he is badass Wolverine and doesn't take on the role of leader like in X3

Wow miss Grace !!! That is so funny. I mean I had to do a double take. Lol ; D

Excellent review Grace!!!

Hey should Marvel be worried about using Quicksilver since he was great in DOFP?

Great review Grace!

i got a question..who's playing quicksilver in the avengers? it would be utterly dumb if they have two versions of the same character ...

Schomes like it, Jeremy Jahs like it (nice), and Grace like it?????? Yup my fav review KZfaqrs like it, im sold

Best opening Grace

Is it true Xavier & magnito basically fought over mystic & is it true that kitty pride somewhat developed those tt powers in the comics

Wow! Grace that opening got my attention.

Yay. I've been waiting all day for this.

Great review, although, I do have to respectfully disagree with you with one point--I believe that nitpicking occurs when the movie/show/comic was so good that you have to find, or nitpick, at some of its very few flaws. Anyway, I just got back from seeing the movie and I loved it.

Great review, only problem was the Ratner jab. Why does he get all the blame and yet the writers of X3 get off easy? Same with Batman and Robin. Everyone blames Schumacher but not one complaint is aimed at the writer

QUESTION!!!!!!! :) Hi Grace, I love beyond the trailer, and think about the ink. I'm a huge X-Men geek fanatic just like you, so I thought you were the perfect person to ask this question. I was wondering with the news that X-Men: Apocalypse will primarily take place in the 1980's, introducing a young Scott, Jean, and Ororo, where do you think it would it go in story? It got me thinking, with these current films they tend to take real events of the time, and implement it into the story, I'm just spitting this out, but I wanted to know what you thought about the idea of the Legacy Virus, being involved in some way, and how mutants are blamed for it as a metaphor for the A.I.D.S. crisis that occurred at that time. Apocalypse and maybe Mister Sinister have something to do with the virus. Anyway I ask questions a lot,and I know this is a popular subject, but I really hope you can answer my question thank you so much.

I loved your review i watched it yesterday here in New Zealand it was really amazing i was on the edge of my seat throughout the entire film lol however, i expected more of the future scenes like Halle Berry as Storm i think that was disappointing but overall it was such a good film and i agree it had that X2 feel to it. Cheers.

Here's my personal ranking by film quality. It's a tight race within the top 3 but Marvel Studios still holds a strong lead in my opinion: 1. Marvel Studios: Avengers 2. 20th Century Fox: X-Men 3. Warner/Legendary: Justice League (Batman/Superman) 4. Sony: Spiderman One might argue Warner/Legendary holding #2 right now, but i bet not after this weekend. So long as Kevin Feige is up there overseeing everything i don't see Marvel coming down from that #1 Perch though. And despite all our anticipation i think there's nobody more excited about Avengers: Age of Ultron than Joss Whedon himself. I have full confidence my expectations won't be let down at least for Age of Ultron. The good news is with the bar set so extremely high we should see the best out of all these films as they battle it out over the next decade or two. Or forever.

I love this franchise so much and I'm glad that it has recovered from the X3 backlash. But I'm with you Grace on the lack of female roles. Sometimes I think that they purposely chose Halle Berry for Storm because she would not overshadow the male characters with her meek interpretation of Storm. It's a huge weakness in this franchise that is becoming more noticeable as females begin taking on stronger roles little by little each year. And I don't see it changing as long as Singer is directing.

I like how you mentioned the eye candy aspect of the film.

My concern is more aimed at characters. I've always felt that only 4 people in the franchise were important and that always bothered me. My questions is if that gets fixed. I'm guessing from the trailers that it's still the Wolverine/Xavier/Magneto/Mystique show, but are there any hints that this will change?

I hope they introduce nightcrawler again as well as gambit again. I also really wish they used kitty pryde instead of wolverine though I know it's because he gets people in theaters. Its just she's one of my favorite characters and her development in the comics from child to adult was really interesting. Kitty nightcrawler and gambit are my faves.

This is my favorite Comic Book movies of all time!!!!!

When will the SPOILER video be up? I can't find the link in the description

LOL the beginning!!!! I can finally watch this after getting back from the theater! But where was Stan lee cameo. Did I miss him?

Any review that's starts with F**k you is awesome in my book. Randolph for PresIdent 2024.

Grace 2 Questions. 1. Do you still think the movie was overcrowded. And 2. Do you finally like Jennifer Lawrence as mystique?

I can't believe I'm agreeing with this woman...LOL I loved the "potential" the movie brings as well!! Nice to be back as a subscriber!

I remember going to the cinema to watch X-Men 2 just like you did. I still remember that feeling that I got, the whole scope of the movie and the way I was blown away by it all those years ago. I do hope this movie does write all the wrongs in the previous movies, especially Origins, the more I watch and the more I think about it, the more I hate it. However, I don't hate The Last Stand as much as everyone else, I though it was good but definitely a disappointment.

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine = Over Utilized Other Characters = Under Utilized

Grace knows soooo much. You deserve more credit.

A passionate review Grace.

On our way to see it tonight! Ws it worth 3D?

I think you're nitpicking with lack of female characters on here (especially cause the the Last stand was mostly about Jean and the cure. I won't say spoilers of what happens to a lot of them though) Mystique, Shadowcat/Kitty, Blink and Storm (and a couple others that I won't spoil) each had their own great moments in the film and while the men do outnumber the women in this one (which I'll admit is a bit odd for X-men), it was so minor of a detail cause everyone on screen was so well developed and/or was able to establish an emotional connection to the audience, that I didn't even notice it till now.

How was Peter Dinklage as Bolivar Trask? I heard he was underused.

X-men gave Grace some eye candy and Beyond The Trailer gives me eye candy. Grace, you never fail to disappoint (beauty and brains in abundance).

When Grace has an issue with something it's always about females lol

my only issue is you never get to see a special effect for magneto powers like in the first X-Men film you saw him surrounded by his magnet shield on the statue of liberty just making hand gesture is not enough and what was it with Charles Xavier there was an excellent effect for his power in first class these people have to stop changing a good thing

Hey Grace! Are you going to review the new Big Hero 6 teaser trailer? :)

Well Grace...I'm NOT going to watch your spoiler review right now, because I haven't seen the movie yet. I _will_ be seeing it tomorrow [AVX 3-D] and I'm totally pumped by this review. Thanks!

Grace, can you say if Rouge is seen at all in DOFP? I read that her scene was cut but we see her in a cameo. Do we see her at all in the movie? Thank you :D ~Curtis~

great film but how does wolverine have adimantium claws in the future???

Grace, that was the best opening ever. :)

I am not going to watch the spoiler review because I haven’t seen the film yet-but I am going to! :p

I would say it was split for spiderman. Cause I know loads of people that loved it including me.

I can't wait seeing it tonight my favorite comics. X-men first class is my favorite so far.

I was on the fence about this after Godzilla let me down but you've sold me on it with this review.

'm ready, seeing it tonight at 10

Perhaps it wasn't a "distraction", merely that Brian Singer likes "eye candy" as well. Just his preference and his vision akin to Russ Meyer. He likes what he likes.

Awesome!!!and watch out for quicksilver!

I can't to see this, just have to wait until tomorrow :)

I was super skeptical with this film, especially since First Class wasn't as good as I originally thought after multiple viewings. I think my initial enjoyment of that film was due to the fact that I wasn't expecting anything good but it was fairly decent. It's a lot better than X3 but there were still problems. With that said, a lot of people said DoFP is really good and that it fixed a lot of wrongs so I feel like having been a fan for so long...I probably should go watch it.

'bringing back jean grey' is that a spoiler or am i supposed to already know that going in?
