I saw X-Men:
Apocalypse, the final film of the X-Men prequel trilogy. Once again, I
thoroughly enjoyed the performances of James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender. They
really helped to carry this franchise. The film was able to keep my attention
and had a couple of pretty good action sequences; however it was no First Class
or even Days of Future Past. There was a self deprecating joke in the film
about how the 3rd in a trilogy is never as good as the originals, which I
thought was clever. Overall, it was a bit long and I do agree with one critic
that said some of the characters that you want to see the most didn't get as
much attention as some of the other less interesting characters. For that
reason I'd say if you choose to see this one, catch the matinee.
