TOP FIVE REASONS YOU SHOULD SEE X: MEN APOCALYPSE
X Men Apocalypse is being released soon, and a lot of people are watching it, while others aren't. Now, the Singer X Men franchise has received a lot of hate for it's 'wrong' iterations of the X Men, largely going the other way, and not adapting the source material, which are common complains, but let's think about this. The Singer-men movies were some of the best CMB movies of all time, and amazing films, and the only one who has done a good X Men movie outside of Singer, is Matthew Vaughn with X Men: First Class, which started the new trilogy of X Men movies.
Now, let's countdown 5 reasons why X Men Apocalypse might surprise you!
BOO!
#1: The People Who DOF AWESOME Are Helming This Movie
Remember DOF? It was an awesome film, right? Well, i think so too. The trailer was beautiful, and being an X Men fan, i went and saw it, but i prepared for the worst, and got the best.
This movie had humor, darkness, action, heart and it was an all around great film. And Bryan Singer is returning, with Simon Kinberg, and most of the cast. Now, this movie is made by the same people who made DOF, so it should turn awesome!
And if you haven't watched it, do yourself a favor, dude, and WATCH IT! It's a fantastic movie.
#2: It's Bringing Classic X MEN To The Table (And New Ones)
The classic X Men are back. Cyclops, Jean Grey, Nightcrawler and even new ones like Psylocke and the villain, Apocalypse.
And for a longtime X Men fan like me, it's an extravaganza of characters! And while some aren't cast right (She's a fine girl, but Sophie Turner's american accent is questionable) and some are perfectly cast like Tye Sheridan as Scott Summers/ Cyclops (who i must be one of the few Cyclops fans in the world).
#3: Teasing A BIGGER Universe And Future
Fox is trying to make a X Men Cinematic Universe, which to be fair, sounds awesome! And with Deadpool glimpsing at the future, and with X Men Apocalypse starting a new era, because the original trilogy is not canon, and if reports are to be believed, then the next central X Men movie will adapt the iconic (and one of my favorite) storyline, Dark Phoenix, which has Jean Grey turning into the evil , Dark Phoenix.
Doesn't that sound awesome?
#4: Oscar Issac As Apocalypse
Oscar Issac is an amazing actor, and this is a major role for him. And acting wise, Oscar is doing a great job as En Sabah Nur, but his look has been controversial. Which i don't understand, because while it isn't the best, it isn't that bad either.
#5: A New Beggining (And New Wolverine)
With all that said, this is a new beggining, cause obviously after Apocalypse, we should see new movies that continue the story of the X Men, and with that, a new start and new stories.
Also, Tom Hardy for Wolverine? Please...
END.
