#MovieReview: "X-Men: Apocalypse"


It's time to visit those mutants again, but this time in the 1980s, and just in time for the X-Men: Apocalypse.

Our main protagonists are back: James McAvoy (Professor X), Jennifer Lawrence (Mystique), and Michael Fassbender (Magneto) -- and they are joined by some new (old) X-Men.

Of course, this time they are facing off against their greatest external threat: Oscar Isaac (Apocalypse). Can they stop him from remaking the world in his own image?

More importantly, will we enjoy watching it?




Overall, this was an okay movie, with what should have been the best super-villain on-screen in Apocalypse. He is supposed to be smart and ruthless!

But, some one of the things/characters just slowed the movie down (*cough* Mystique *cough*), and there just weren't enough awe-inspiring moments.

It should have been better, and deserved to be, but is still ENTERTAINING TO WATCH.

QBF Rating: 3.0/5

PS: They need to stop trying to make Mystique a thing. Her character isn't central to the X-Men story, and never will be, no matter how much retconning they do. Pointless she is.

Good Morning! This is the 21st, and last of my "Body-Painted Football Babes Bonanza" series. Perhaps more importantly however, the semi-finals begin tomorrow in the World Cup! So a hearty congratulations to the great teams who made it: Uruguay versus Netherlands Germany versus Spain They will play each other tomorrow and Wednesday respectively, but all signs point to Germany defeating the Netherlands in the final. Now, back to the babes! We have ladies representing the Italian Republic (the only returning champion I'd wager, to ever come dead last in the weakest group), and the Republic of Korea (South Korea -- who lost to Uruguay in the 2nd round). - QBF Spicy Meatball: Korea's Taekwan-Don't Stop!
