Regardless and what you think of any X-men you seen in the past (The so-so trilogy or the Wolverine origin movies) this movie will show you something that all fans of the series have been waiting for....

A serious and heartfelt plot line.....

I have heard that a lot of people are turned off by the idea of the new and old and did not think that it would work but i assure you director Bryan Singer made it so.

I encourage all to see this movie even if your not a fan of x-men. Its a great action movie with a fantastic story that will keep you gripped to the end of the movie.

Don't be too harsh...

Honestly this movie gets a bad rep right off the bat. You see that the movie is practically written, directed, produced (Al-bed Eli Roth) by a rookie film director (and rap/hip-hop legend) RZA. And you think its going to be trash... Okay got it opinions are opinions everybody has one, but take a step back and see what this movie is. Its not meant to the the next great kung-fu movie. Its not meant to be a Oscar winner. It was conceived as a new/interesting look at mixing two different things and seeing what comes out (kung-fu and hip-hop). In this regard i feel as though RZA did a good job incorporating the two together. Do not get me wrong this movie had its fair share of problems that i feel like a more seasoned Director will be able to sniff out, however that is not the case and i feel like too much banter is thrown RZA's way. Give the man a break.

All in all i though this was a enjoyable film and a movie i could watch again. I respect RZA from coming out his comfort zone and trying something new like directing and i am excited to see his future work.
