New X-Men movie

Finally saw it, quite enjoyed. Disappointed that we probably won't ever get to see these actors as these characters again. Fassbender was a fantastic Mags, and Nicholas Hoult and Caleb Landry-Jones as Beast and Banshee really stood out to me as well.

I do wish Shaw's henchmen had been even slightly fleshed out, Mystique joining Mags at the end (and Angel joining Shaw) seemed muddled and unmotivated, and Beast's makeup was...well, slightly suspect. But those are minor gripes. Really good flick.

Love how everyone was pretty much shitting all over this flick for a year based on the scantest details, and now everyone's singing it's praises as possibly the best X-flick. Fanboys gonna fanboy, I guess.
