Really, you can ignore all the Xmen films that came before and pretend this is the first. It's almost like a reboot ala Star Trek 2009.

As it stands it is a better movie than all of the others. There are some slight inconsistencies but also a few nods and winks to the other films.

Like Star Trek 2009 it's something that fans and non-fans should both enjoy.

Last movie seen - Monsters.

Interesting. 3 balls.

I was expecting a bit more to happen and the story was a bit depressing, but I enjoyed it.
