Wait, so in the movies, Havok is 20 or so years older than Cyclops? Emma Frost is an adult in the 60's and a teenager in the 80's? Also I have to question their choice in X-Men, though I love the 60's setting. When was the last time anyone saw Azazel, Darwin, or Riptide in the comics? Heh, were Unus The Untouchable and Lockheed unavailable?
Saw it tonight...TBH I thought it was a bit redundant. The only saving grace is Michael Fassbender as Magneto who was the only well cast character in it. His back story and motivation is the only strong emotive thread in the film
It also completely nullifies the relationships between characters from the trilogy (obviously I'm not including origins in that lot)
The obligatory cameo from Wolverine is obviously to keep the sad fanboys happy. No need for it.
In its own right it's reasonably entertaining though...I just think that the trilogy would have been better made after this film because the relationships between Beast and Mystique as well as Mystique and Xavier would have improved the trilogy immensely.
overall...6/10.
