X-MEN APOCALYPSE - Double Toasted Review

X-Men Apocalypse has finally seen the light of day, or maybe it hasn't! Because although it stars Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, and Jennifer Lawrence, and has the return of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, the DT crew once again keep it 100% unbiased and review this movie for it's quality. Will that become a detriment to this film? Find out!

WHY MARTIN AND KOREY GOODWIN LOOK LIKE FATHER AND SON AT A PARENT STUDENT TEACHER CONFERENCE LMAOOOO

[@Betoven81]

+JuliusC. don't it look like they wearing each others' clothes....Korey looking spiffy today and thats always Martin...Martin looking grimmy lol

[@jonelder3958]

[@thedefinitionisthis]

bruh. watch their review of the Ben-Hur remake.... it'll only confirm this LOL

[@fabiopereira6699]

"The 3rd one is always the worst" That's a line that will forever haunt this franchise, no matter how they rebooted

[@DavidAllgaier_]

At least many fans agree that the 3rd Wolverine was the best. 😮‍💨

[@saucygoat8287]

When they introduce Apocalypse into the MCU version of X-Men, he better rival Thanos. This dude is on another level and he deserves a proper incarnation

[@DavidAllgaier_]

Maybe he will appear in the 3rd saga (Phase 7-9). I predict they will title it the Mutant Saga.

[@BubblesZap]

Okay how is this channel not more popular.

[@zionharris9432]

+Upcycle Shoes well they were liked but not huge that's one of the reasons the site was shut down

[@juliusc.3465]

+Zion Harris No, the site got shut down over 4th quarter stuff. A lot of people on Spill still dont know they exist.

[@PauseFilms]

+Zion Harris They were shut down because Hollywood(dot)com bought them and shut the site down after many disagreements They started changing show formats and so on. You can Google a interview with talking about their experience.

[@BonafideShaunDent]

Magneto lifts a city? He must have thought he was in Sakovia.

[@webheadcamstudios1344]

IKR whenever I see the commercials for this I think of Age of Ultron

[@shill1444]

Right. He was toying with the magnetic poles of the planet. That kinda damage was worldwide.

[@PepsiEnthusiast]

Is that a reference to the nonsense science in Ultimatum?

[@kaijud3941]

In the comics he has complete manipulation of everything connected to the electromagnetic spectrum to the point where he manipulate stars themselves

[@moxiemaxie3543]

Its a destruction /apocalypse movie.... nothing new

[@hansantov]

Sophie turner was weak. Every line felt boring

[@RaikenXion]

+Hans Antov Agreed she was rather wooden, but that guy playing young Cyclops was equally as bad, what put me off was first time I saw him at the comic con, when they were asking the cast about what it feels like to play younger versions of these character, he didnt even know what to say about it, like he just wasnt bothered. Dont know whether he was nervous or pressure or something but that really put me off him from the start. Me personally the only new actors who did good job playing younger versions of the characters was that guy who played young Nightcrawler he was really good and that young actress played the younger version of storm, she was really good totally underused.

[@THEGOFER615]

thank you!!!!

[@THEGOFER615]

+Raiken Xion totally agree with everything you said!

[@ollybirkbeck7467]

Hans Antov the new perception of her character in game of thrones, has the same problem.

[@RinaPinxz22]

Jennifer Lawrence is one of the most overrated actors in Hollywood.

[@BluJae93]

she's getting paid all that money just cause of popularity cause the media hypes her up

[@DonaldSeymourjr]

+trent willams Sounds interesting, can you explain?

[@alexanderthegreat5649]

+Troy Rush lol yeah welcome to the way things have always been. You think they get paid based on who's the best actor? no it's the actors who put butts in the seats get more money as a result. Mcavoy is a tremendous actor but he isn't gonna get a $15 $20 million dollar check because movies with him as the lead aren't making boatloads of cash.

[@BluJae93]

+AlexanderThe Great I hate the hunger games smh that damn franchise f'd up everything

[@alexanderthegreat5649]

+Troy Rush Eh not with you on that I love it I loved the books. you probably don't like it because of her but I just like it because of the story don't care who's in it.

[@azraelswrd]

Damn, Korey was killing it with this review. Loved the references to the "critics were paid off by Disney" bullshit story that's been circulating. Speaking of which, I'm still waiting for my check too..... LOL. As for this movie, I was planning to rent it anyways. Already saw Civil War so I'm good.

[@MrHero17]

For anyone who believes that is super idiotic . Like seriously , who came up with that mess??

[@azraelswrd]

MrHero17 Grace Randolph was the first one to make a video about the "Marvel bias" among critics to explain why they were so negative towards BvS and Snyder

[@juliusc.3465]

+azraelswrd Wrong, DC Comics Zone did.

[@azraelswrd]

Grace was the one I first heard it from plus the whole critics being paid off by Marvel.

[@boredXsomethingXIDK]

if you went back & watched Spider-Man 2 you would see why it's still considered one of the greatest comic book movies.

[@THEremiXFACTOR]

Agreed, Spiderman 2 was great. Shame they threw away all that good work with Spiderman 3

[@YTChannel420]

No I seen it again and it's overrated, same cheesy and goofy shit as the 1st and 3rd movie

[@YTChannel420]

The Avatar explain

[@ThePsychoticBee]

I don't think it holds up. After all these superhero films that can blend humor and drama really well, seeing Doctor Octopus put his mechanical arms up in the air and scream "NOO" is just so goofy and unintentionally hilarious. Or seeing Peter walk around while "raindrops keep falling on my head" is playing just feels off. Harry talking to his dead dad and conveniently finding his goblin gear because they wanted him to be a bad guy in the sequel. There's a lot of things I personally think don't work in that film.

[@til_thasmokeclearz853]

+ThePsychoticBee which other superhero films blend dram and humor well? ( and don't say dark knight).

[@RandomBlackGamer]

I hope this shit is Brian Singer's last X-Men film. Just let Tim Miller direct from now on since he's done Deadpool and Colossus so much justice with a small budget.

[@boomstickcritique902]

+RandomBlackGamer yes obviously he should just quit after making 2 of the most popular ones of the entire franchise x2 an days of future past which critics also love which korey even enjoys but one bad one go singer get out of here lol dead pool is a totally different style of movie then x men what makes you think this guy could even do a good high budget pg 13 movie just because he did a great r rated one they are 2 totally different styles of film an also very different characters in both not to mention you could not have the humor of dead pool in the xmen movies it wouldnt fit not saying you have to like singer but i just find it funny when some one makes x1 x2 an days of future past which the majority of people like then one slip up get out of here lol

[@RandomBlackGamer]

***** Pretty much. I'd just base everything off his universe.

[@tomimpala]

+RandomBlackGamer I hear the person who did 1st Class did well?

[@RandomBlackGamer]

I Do Monologues Mathew Vaughn? Yeah he actually got the franchise back on the right track.

[@mjfernandez-muldoon5202]

+The Slick Android Nah, Days of Future Past is. Deadpool was only good for its character depiction, and nothing else, in my opinion. Cgi was shit and the story was dog shit.

[@ThePonderer]

You shush Martin Spiderman 2 is awesome.

[@lowkeyloki8832]

Honestly, Bryan Singer's X-Men movies were average to me, save for Days Of Future Past. I just think The Last Stand was so horrible it gave Singer messiah status. In my opinion, I wish Matthew Vaughn stuck around but then again, we probably wouldn't get Kingsman.

[@DoReMi123acb]

+LowkeyLoki WELL SAID!!!!! Vaughn basically knows how to translate the comic into movie form. Singer can't do that well for shit. Also, Vaughn can handle ensemble cast which is important for the X-men; but Singer always literally makes these movies about ONE FUCKING CHARACTER!!! (WOLVERINE AND NOW MYTIQUE) Seriously, in DofP he killed off all the interesting characters in the beginning and made wolverine the centre of attention!

[@Temujin18S]

Agree

[@DoReMi123acb]

laz kar I think it's in the same vane as The Dark Knight i.e it is a good sci-fi movie that uses comic book elements very well.

[@TheMovieGuy-oy8fc]

He didn't do the last stand

[@DoReMi123acb]

***** true. they do have their kinks, especially when you aren't using nostalgia goggles; but what they did right was get the main themes of their respective characters and universes. However, the X-men movies are definitely a largely mixed bag. They feel more like sci-fi movies with comic book elements.

[@ProjectDelta1]

I know people shit on Jennifer Lawrence, but honestly they gave Mistique a role that doesn’t suit her. The young cast was good, I would have liked having Cyclops showing his leadership as he tries to figure out his strengths. Instead we got a generic Katniss who prides herself as a mutant yet prefers her human shape. I know Jennifer Lawrence said this is her last xmen film, but they honestly should have ended her in the last movie. She didn't seem into this.

[@someguy504]

Just when they got the X-men done right, they go and fuck it up.

[@megatondestron9398]

+Rusty Shackleford One step forward two steps back Rusty. Say, have you seen Dale lately? I bet he's tearing his hair out over Trump.

[@zeroskaterz92]

+Rusty Shackleford It's a shame that Matthew Vaughn didn't direct the trilogy, he only did First Class. I bet he would make X-Men far better than it should.

[@Temujin18S]

+The Slick Android True but Deadpool is only because of Ryan Reynolds

[@Temujin18S]

***** Exactly

[@tristanmilner9511]

Did one of Martin's shirts shrink in the wash and he gave it to Korey?

[@ollybirkbeck7467]

Tristan Milner grew, that big son of a bitch is 6,3.

[@0hMyGandhi]

this episode was absolutely hysterical. These guys need to blow up, and fast.

[@iClone316]

Is this the cartoon guy from the "Spill" movie reviews that used to be on KZbin?

[@belakthrillby]

+FrankGarrett316 Yep

[@wallywest2038]

+FrankGarrett316 Yup, Spill ended and Double Toasted emerged.

[@awsumpossum1]

+Wally West MUCH LIKE THE PHOENIX! the black man rises.

[@jaredalbert2203]

+FrankGarrett316 welcome to jurassic park, enjoy yourself

[@TheVoicz]

Yea, kinda glad that Spill shit tanked after their website got bought out. Really bad reviews on almost any movie they critiqued.

[@Journeyagain0]

I just want Marvel to strike a deal with Fox, like they did with Sony with Spider-Man, to get the X-men and Fantastic Four in the MCU.

[@marblehillpjs]

+Journeygan FF yes....X-men.....kind of tired of seeing them. I say that as a person who's read the X-men since 1982

[@DeathSentryCoH]

+marblehillpjs Ditto.. so pathetic..please just transfer to Marvel

[@loki1188]

+marblehillpjs i'm tired of seeing the Fox-men, put an mcu X-men film out, i'm game.. deadpool was the only good one thanks to miller and reynolds

[@marblehillpjs]

+odlanra serdna the 1st 2 were really good and first class was good but amazing. I'm just kind of sick of the core X-men and that's saying a lot since I collected the comic since 1982

[@KelvinMMoore69]

I have only One (1) Question: Did Jubilee EVER use her POWERS even ONCE in this movie?

[@bjamiork]

+KelvinMMoore69 She shot fireworks into the sky at the end when the X-Men won. Probably. What else is she good for?

[@DoReMi123acb]

+T-Top Deluxe Are Night crawler and Beast done well? they are my favorite mutants.

[@KelvinMMoore69]

T-Top Deluxe LMFAO!!!! X,-D I don't know. People get KILLED & MAIMED by FIREWORKS, every year. I know I wouldn't want to be POPPED in the FACE with one of her BLASTS.... Anywho, my thing is, WHY do they even BOTHER to keep making CAMEOS of this character, in these movies, if they DON'T even SHOW the AUDIENCE a teeny TASTE of what her POWERS are? ☆

[@KelvinMMoore69]

***** Exactly! ◇

[@trilxo6615]

+The Slick Android she's in two trailers at least

[@SunGawdRa]

Apocalypse is easy to understand. The strongest survive, the weak dies. That's it. Of course, there's the whole Celestials angle, but still pretty basic.

[@skintgirafde320]

THANK YOU!!!

[@emmasolis9106]

I think what they're saying is we don't know WHY he believes that so strongly. In ancient times, he was perfectly fine allowing the weak to survive when they served him as a god and killing the strong mutants to absorb their powers, but when he wakes up in modern times, he suddenly decides everyone (humans and mutants alike) is 'insubordinate' and deserve to die without even trying to get them to serve him. (This is all off the movie btw, never read the comics)

[@RonnieG88]

EVERYTHING THEY BUILT WILL FALL AND FROM THE ASHES OF THERE WORLD, WE WILL BUILD A BETTER OOZE. 😀

[@sagelion5279]

8:17 ....this is the thing that hurts me the most about these movies. Mystique is my all time favourite X-Men char, Marvel char, mutant char...heck fav fictional female character in general and it hurts that she got done wrong. So wrong in so many ways.

[@dantejones5639]

+Sage Vodka So true i guess they think Jennifer is better looking than Rebecca Romaine Stamos which is false

[@RuffWarl0ck]

Jennifer Lawrence's "Mystique" reflects NOTHING of the charm and badassness that comic Mystique has.

[@FERLARA]

+Sage Vodka to me Rebecca Romijn is the best mystique

[@DeathSentryCoH]

+Fernando Lara Agreed!!! She was quick, sexy, smart, just enough evil to make her interesting..Jennifer is just someone who once in awhile shows her true self and nowhere near the magnetism that Rebecca had

[@jamalbryant8099]

+Sage Vodka i thought jennifer did great

[@nizzanator]

SPOILERS - At times the film was good but it was also had a few unnecasary moments in it is well. Like the inclusion of Stryker and Wolverine. Sure it was nice to see Wolverine wreck some soldiers like a badass again, but it felt like it was shoehorned into the film purely for fan service. And couldn't they find a better way to "kill off" Havok. I mean after he "died" its as if the film totally forgot about him.

[@nizzanator]

***** WHY ? To make room for a 30 minute Wolverine cameo ?

[@nizzanator]

***** Thats fine. U can buy into the excuses that filmmakers come up with, to justify the plotholes of their films. In the end all they care about is money. The inclusion of a fan favorite character who has no relevance to the plot of the film is far more important than good storytelling.

[@azraelswrd]

Just saw it today and yep, the whole Wolverine/Stryker bit felt way out of place. Havok and Angel's death seemed unearned. No response by ANY military as Cairo is basically destroyed? This was ok for a generic summer action flick but I wasn't invested with most of these characters. Definitely a step backward from DOFP for me.

[@nizzanator]

azraelswrd Thank You

[@nizzanator]

***** Grow up and stop fanboying The X-men, your either too blind to see the plotholes in this film, or your just kissing the films ass for the sake of it . Either way it undeniable that the cons definately outway the pros.

[@roninmikeclips]

This is a weird review because only one of the three have seen the movie.

[@roninmikeclips]

+cubbex they ask question about the film that they should have known from watching the movie. Kory is the only one the saw it. Martin only read someone's review.

[@RuffWarl0ck]

+Mike Reactor Martin and Goodwin missed the screening of this film. They are going to attempt to see it at another screening to give their opinion on it.

[@LukeLovesRose]

If Apocalypse is a bad character in the movie, blame the comics. They can only work what they've got. This movie looks awesome to me. Damn the critics.

[@mushrambokinniku4900]

Apocalypse is freaking awesome in the comics, you shold read some one of this days, movie sucks by the way :D

[@edwardpolenzani4900]

lmao, I'm not sure why but I crack up when Korey's like "I just wanna destroy the WORLD!" hahaha

[@OtakuUnderground92]

I don't understand what you critics wanted or expected out of a movie about mutants with all these different powers. To expect anything less than a CGI spectacle out of a movie called X-Men Apocalypse, based on a villain named Apocalypse is just stupid. How else were they going to show off all the destruction and the use of all these characters powers? Complaining about too much CGI in a movie where CGI clearly was needed is really dumb. Also, I'm starting to think some of you critics didn't pay attention to the movie because Apocalypse plan was clear as day. (SPOILERS) He wanted to start the world over basically with whoever survived and then use Professor X's powers to make sure that no one could betray him ever again. This movie was good in my opinion, although not as good as Days of Future Past. It is almost as good as First Class, but this definitely wasn't a bad movie. The movie only had a few flaws: 1. Wasted characters like Storm, Psylocke, and Angel 2. Jennifer Lawerence's performance (like you mentioned)

[@DankyDre420]

it was action for action sake. retreading character plots, and nothing interesting was added. there was so much CGI for an X-Men film, and none of the battles were creative. it felt like going through the motions. so much so that it became boring. especially Auschwitz scene. this was mad disappointing.

[@OtakuUnderground92]

Too much CGI for an X-Men movie? Well, every X-Men movie has lots of CGI to showcase mutant abilities. Granted there is exceedingly more, but it is justified given the grand scope of the film. I really don't see how anyone could have thought this was boring. Might just be your taste in movies (no offense).

[@DankyDre420]

TheNegroShoddy like i said i wouldnt mind if it was creative. The last fight was Magneto floating there throwing metal instead of doing something creative. same thing with Apocalypse. he was turning things into dust then at the end he just stood there and absorbed it. he also had no reason to keep Cyclops alive.by glueing him to the wall instead of sticking him inside like he did earlier.

[@erickavila4559]

... Could anyone have survived his destruction?

[@KimmimaruSai]

I agree with you but I think you're underevaluating how much of a detriment those two things were.

[@815StoneCold]

I like most of the X-Men movies, I'll probably see this, but I can never get excited for a new X-Men

[@Drumtech08]

Jennifer Lawrence is MISCASTED........she was the biggest flaw in this movie. YOU take her out of it and it would add up another 40% on Rotten tomatoes

[@TONYGILLEY]

Thumbs DOWN to Martin for his thoughts on Spider-Man 2!!!! *even though he's got a right to that. BOO!!!!

[@RedKnightInGotham]

I went back and watched Spider-Man 2 like Martin said. Still one of the best comic book films.

[@dorianwhitney3862]

Telling me it doesn't hold up. Is he kidding. It's the perfect representation of a comic book film. Fun, suspenseful, and awesome action. That train sequence is still awesome.

[@RedKnightInGotham]

I agree completely and to think that Martin said he enjoyed Spider-Man 3 probably more than 2 back when it came out.

[@Swell_Character]

14:48 - 14:53 The story of most supervillains' lives. haha

[@ReelJV]

Kudos to you fine gents! This was an entertaining and hilarious review... you guys are truly funny individuals... and while I might not agree with all your points, I was thoroughly entertained throughout! You got my sub!

[@earthlingcrusader1529]

I remember when the first X-Men came out, and honestly...I've never really liked them. The casting, tone and overall look of the films have never appealed to me. The action has always only been OK.

[@Betoven81]

+Earthling Crusader Maybe it's because I'm a little older than you but I disagree. Being a comic book fan and not having a live adaptation of some the comic book characters, I feel X-Men did a great job of brining it to the forefront. I don't feel it stood the test of time, but still

[@earthlingcrusader1529]

Rick Harding What makes you assume that I'm unable to harken back to a time pre-Michael Keaton's Batman? Me being in my late 30s has nothing to do with my opinion of the X-Men movies. For me, they simply have never seemed right.

[@RuffWarl0ck]

Bryan Singer may have gotten the trials, tribulations, prejudices that mutants endure right, but he doesn't have the personality of a lot of these characters right (not that he cares anyway) I have such a love/hate relationship with Singer's movies and I don't think that the first two movies are anywhere near as good as people say they are.

[@roromad9603]

you guys rock! will be looking for this channel for all reviews going forward. thanks so much for the great content!

[@MoCa1979Jr]

IDK why ppl act like Bryan Singer makes such great X-movies. He makes mediocre X-movies at best, despite the fact that he has access to all these fantastic characters, themes & story lines. The X-men is arguably a better property than the Avengers. All these X-movies are essentially the same: focus on 1 mutant (Wolverine & now Mystique), basically ignore all the other X-men, introduce new characters, Wolverine shows up, Magneto does a team-up, then Mags betrays those he teamed up with, Mags gets defeated in the end, but is never killed (despite what he's done).

[@BluJae93]

Jennifer Lawrence made me not want to see the movie.i don't like her in anything except silver lining playbook and that's it.she doesn't try at all

[@Darkslayer289]

+Troy Rush I think the problem with her acting is that she doesn't vary her performance that much.

[@UItraVice]

Is nobody going to mention the fact that Magneto literally copied "Xmen Origins: Wolverine"??? A male mutant is tired of being a part of his former team due to differences but tries to fit in society by traveling to a far off place where nobody knows them. Gets a job as a Construction type employee only to have his quiet and peaceful life torn apart when their secret hideaway reveals them to the public and results in their loved ones dying. This in return makes the character get out if retirement and go on a rampage to get revenge. Next to be taken in by a evil mentor that strengthens their powers but tries to use them for evil. Which later on makes the character change their mind about revenge after self reflection and furthermore going solo to wonder alone unsure of who he is inside..... That's the plot for both Wolverine and Magneto!!!

[@roseryan1542]

It's funny how you say that Lawrence has lost interest in the part. I do feel it's an east 20 million paycheck for her, she's never been a good Mystique. She, Fasbender and McAvoy have signed up again to play these characters again. I don't know how long their contracts are, but they don't need to have a lot of screen time. They should let the new characters develop without the same old tired 3 being the focus.

[@MystikalScopeProductions]

Rose Ryan Dark Phoenix is their last film

[@Danjoker.]

To me the thing that ruined the movie was Apocalopsy, his character was boring to be honest

[@Galvatronover]

The way he was written he wasn’t threatening

[@rporche2600]

I guess everything they built did fall lol

[@webheadcamstudios1344]

+Reynard Porche BA BOOM PSST

[@rienjen]

I so hope I disagree with you, but I loved your sense of humor. Thanks for disappointing me and making me laugh at the same time.

[@rienjen]

Okay, saw the movie...everything you said was true. In fact, maybe it's even a little worse than you say. So disappointed. But thanks for the laughs with this review.

[@Matt_Mosley1983]

... it's not 'autotune' its a vocoder.

[@blueboy5090]

X-Men 3 wasn't great, but Origins was 10x worse IMO.

[@iSabier]

Hilarious. You guys are rocking and I'm glad your readership is increasing. Keep it coming DT!

[@doml8540]

I'm really surprised Martin and Korey G didn't see this too. Not often a big movie like this gets just one of their reviews. I wouldn't mind them doing another review after they see it, even tho it'll probably be the same as Koreys

[@eval7952]

I watched fantastic 4 for the first time and didn't think it was horrible. doom sucked and the ending was weak but I enjoyed the movie. I don't read comic books so just saw it as an stand alone movie.

[@megatondestron9398]

Martin: That is not a good movie. SHUT UP MARTIN!!!!!

[@DoraKage]

So I'll get a check from Disney if I make a video to talk shyt about it too? :D

[@drizzo4669]

Its never a bad idea to use practical effects. Bad practical effects in a good movie can be forgiven by the mind (your imagination fills in the blanks). The best cgi in a bad movie makes it worse or in a good movie can take you out of the moment (if you see it).

[@rsmegamanx]

True. I'd still watch this movie again over BvS if someone asked me which I wanted to watch, but I'd be lying if I said this movie didn't break my heart.

[@iksarmada7197]

So what yall are saying is Apocalypse is pretty much Robert Duvall in this.

[@alozor13]

X2 united is the best and the last great x-men movie. las stand was trash. first class was only decent, DoFP had too many continuity flaws despite being entertaining... (they didn't even try to explain how and why Kitty Pride got these new time travel powers) ... this one looks bloated with too much CGI and Jennifer Lawrence. it's time for Bryan singer to leave this franchise tbh

[@MoonLiteWolf]

APOCALYPSE's motive was extremely clear...he believes mutants were meant to rule the world and he believes he is meant to rule over all the mutants because he was the first. How was that not clear to them? I never even read the comics xD

[@cypher160manny2]

MoonLiteWolf then why did he let humanity live the first time he just woke up modern times and said fuck em

[@MoonLiteWolf]

Cypher160 Manny what do you mean let them live? Do you mean while he was in a deep sleep underground?

[@cypher160manny2]

MoonLiteWolf no I mean originally he ruled humanity then when he awoke in modern times he all of sudden wanted to destroy them

[@cjzanders5430]

I thought this review was gonna be bad. Man this brotha is funny!

[@Gieser8]

Someone please tell Korey to not let Miss Meeya dress him for his show.When a shirt is to short for you,leaving the sleeves that aren't long enough unbuttoned doesn't hide it.

[@TheKh65]

That is her shirt lo

[@TheKh65]

+Godfrey Winston lol

[@fabiopereira6699]

Magneto was pretty close to move the entire world in this one

[@cpanthers88]

DOFP and Frist Class were my two favorite Marvel movies. X-men can do no wrong

[@DBringmann]

the movie was boring as hell...for a story about the end of the world it was pretty bland. And who the fuck picks Angel as one of the 4 horsemen?? oh you can fly and shot metal shards, i bet i cant find a mutant more powerful than you anywhere...

[@DBringmann]

***** i think it was bland because the story was bad... "oh look a hole in the ground in some random backyard... ops accidental woke up evil mutant... evil mutant promises power to other mutants, they just have to kill everybody els and they go along with it and the only ones that actual do something about the end of the world is a handful of Students/X-men..." and why would you accept Storm as part of the X-man team, if Mystiqe had not showed up she would have helped destroy the world...not to mention Magneto.... he cries about his family gets killed and then willingly participate in killing countless others with no questions asked(wonder why people do not like him?)... and Angel is just a tool..he gets new wings and then helps Apocalypse to kill millions.. the main bad guy is more or less randomly uncovered and no one in the worlds do anything about him wanting to destroy the world...sure their is a finale battle at the end otherwise it is just a lot of crying and pointless storytelling....they even have to shoehorn wolverine in there to get some action going.....boring movie....

[@DBringmann]

***** total cop out :)

[@DBringmann]

***** still a cop out....and why could they then betray him later if they were under some sort of superpowered mindcontrol? why did Apocalyps not just use his mindcontrol powers on the other X-men?

[@DBringmann]

***** i am not comparing the character to the character in the comics, i have never read comics about the character. if human emotion(like friendship) will overpower it it makes no sense that the death of basically every person on the planet did not break his mindcontrol.... you can kill billions, but if your friends is upset with you the control breaks...must imply that somewhere inside of you your ok with the death of billions.... to me that makes Storm, Angel and Magneto bad guys by this point...psylock actually looked like she was annoyed that Apocalypse lost in the end

[@MarvelVulcan]

Blame Singer for that as the comic Archangel has always been badass.

[@kingtropico]

Love Jennifer Lawrence's take on Mystique. She deserves all of her success in my opinion.

[@jgirlinluv55]

She is trash. Watch xmen 2 that is Mystique

[@dorianwhitney3862]

Stuckmann gave it an A-. And if more critics like this than BvS, I'm interested because I actually enjoyed BvS.

[@Juice_the_Guru]

One thing they didn't take seriously is how strong magneto is. dude lifts a city if he needs to. that is how strong he was written to be.

My main flaws with X-Men Apoc was mostly too much CGI, very simplistic plot and Oscar Issac although he played the role very well, (hes a really solid actor)but his make-up for En Sabah Nur is horrid, also it feels like Bryan Singer should have used visual effects to make him look alot bigger and taller. I dont get it, cause with the Avengers, Marvel made "Thanos" just look exactly like, Thanos from the comics and he looks good too.

[@RaikenXion]

***** Well I never take much notice to all that, DC and Marvel have been ripping eachother off for yrs, mostly becsause of different artists leaving or being poached by the rival company. Red Arrow/Hawkeye, Atom/Ant Man Flash/Quicksilver e.g. And Apcoc Darkseid and Thanos are all quite similar anyway.

[@RaikenXion]

***** But so far the one that looks the best in these movie adaps is Thanos cause they simply made him look just like him and kept him in a more Sideous kind of role, behind everything. But I hope Darkside looks big and really good in Justice League.

[@everythingisawesome9532]

Well amongst all the negative comments about Bryan I've got some positive comments about how he started this whole comicbook movie blockbuster thing and gave us some entertaining xmen movies. people forget that. maybe he should pass the torch, but I respect the work he's done. This movie stands in the shadow of Civil War and so will every other comic book movie to come out this year. I feel bad for suicide squad. fans are gonna tear it apart.

[@eastbluedrew1664]

I love how they just act like marvel never uses cgi I guess the airport scene was all stunt actors and string and shit bias is really becoming evident

[@RuffWarl0ck]

They discussed the CGI in Captain America Civil War during their spoiler talk.

[@terrez.]

Can we get a regular super hero movie again? Like stopping bank robbers and chasing cars. And not just this one big evil dude and a big end battle.

[@DankyDre420]

+illvisionTv hopefully the new spiderman will be that

[@ericstaples7220]

+illvisionTv I don't think you understand that a regular superhero movie is about a big evil dude with a big end battle.

[@cjzanders5430]

It's just better when the motive of the villain isn't overly repetitive, and the plot is interesting.

[@mew10521]

Jennifer Lawrence was never a good Mystique in my opinion, doesn't Mystique supposed to be ruthless, smart and be able to get out of anything? Does anyone know how she is in the comic books? I've seen the animated x-men and thought she was pretty good, but why did they put professor X and her as brother and sister? Also, are they going to make her Nightcrawler related in this movie?

[@MarvelVulcan]

Mystique in the comics is about 80 years old and is NightCrawlers mother but with how Singer has the x-men heading no they'll be no relation nor will Kurt know that his father is Azazel. Mystique in the comics is mostly a villain well a sub-villain to a greater force like Apocalypse Sinister or Magneto.

[@Final_Flash1]

YES MARTIN!!!!! Spiderman 2 sucks! glad someone else agrees!

[@mhaze210]

Anyone notice how Korey talking and the X-Men clip go perfectly together at 15:56?

[@Zero2k0]

I wish Martin had seen the movie and not just Korey because It makes it more fun that way. I thought the movie was just ok, I didn't think it would be amazing in the first place so I wasn't disappointed. It had some really cool aspects to it though that many people will overlook but you know how that is. The CG was whatever, I think it's gotten to the point where X-men powers get so amazing that it's hard to portray them on a larger scale in live action film. Only thing that pissed me off besides Apocalypse, was the lack of Jubilee. She is one of my fav. X-men and they didn't even use her at all. Her actress looked gorgeous and cute but all she did was stand there and say like 1 lame line.

[@tomimpala]

About the action - This is the third movie in a trilogy, that usually means there's more action than usual because the characters have been set up. I think the film tries to tell you that by calling back to 1st Class and Days so much.

[@JarinXeno]

Apocalypse's power is not to absorb other mutants powers, its that he can alter he atomic structure at will. Essentially he can emulate any power and change his form in anyway he can imagine.

[@screenPhiles]

It's driving me nuts that the host keeps saying "X-Men's' when it's already plural.

[@MrsJasmyn45]

The intro, its supposed to show how the movie's gonna be.. It was lousy. The beginning half was dull and boring, I couldn't keep my eyes open. The 2nd half was better, when Quicksilver came in, it got interesting there. But.. Apocalypse.. I don't understand his problem. He reminded me too much of Ultron. They both saw wars that happened and all the sudden the people need to die. I felt like it was a rip off of Avengers. I say.. Low, low, low.. Rental I will say I enjoyed Magneto destroying Auschwitz.. I was happy to see him destroy that place.

[@inspirationonline281]

I'm with Martin on this - Spiderman 2 was a seriously over-rated movie.

[@nydabeats]

Double toasted needs more subscribers... show is dope!

[@jacksonedwards2456]

Agreed! Get your friends into the show if you can!

[@Xion4245]

I've ALWAYS Hated What Bryan Singer Has done to the X-men because they are nothing like there Comic Counter parts Especially when compared to all the Marvel Studios Movies Characters that Seem almost perfect i wish FOX would just sell the rights back to Marvel Studio or at least Partner with them Like Sony did with Spider-man

[@MrJholshouser41]

As awesome as the Civil War fight looked, we knew not them was going to die. Even Scarlet With called Hawkeye out for for pulling punches. Yeah, we knew Scott and Jean were going to make and Eric and Charles. I guess Beast, because we saw him at the end of DOFP. Everybody else? Nightcrawler, Angel ( who did die,) Pyslock, Quicksilver or even Raven, because we know Lawrence wants. All of those people felt like could die. Would Marvel ever kill Havoc in the middle of the movie? Would they ever have the future X-Men battling the Sentinels scene? Twice.

[@missourigreen051]

I haven't seen the movie yet but I get this vibe that Korey is really nitpicking this movie and that it's not as bad as he made it out to be.

[@rawalshadab3812]

+missourigreen051 Well, I haven't either. But he's saying something along the lines of what other reviewers are saying, so he might have valid points.

[@ishmailtwilley4460]

I never really go by Korey's reviews, he's always been nitpicky to me.

[@RuffWarl0ck]

+Ishmail Twilley...Do tell, why are you watching their reviews if you don't like the fact that they aren't saying what you want to hear?

[@ishmailtwilley4460]

When did I said I don't like their reviews? Maybe I find them more entertaining? All I said that he's nitpicky.

[@RuffWarl0ck]

...soooo in other words, you don't like what they've saying about the film (as entertaining as they may be) and you don't agree with their opinion?

[@humanparadox]

SpiderMan 2 is one of the best superhero movies ever by Marvel

[@marblehillpjs]

+humanparadox Marvel did do Spiderman 2, Fox did

[@humanparadox]

marblehillpjs Oh I know that I mean its one of the best movie of a Marvel character

[@marblehillpjs]

ok

[@Darkslayer289]

+marblehillpjs Sony made Spider-Man 2, not Fox.

[@marblehillpjs]

oops sorry my bad.

[@TheDoctorAndTheTardis]

lol.. Apocalypse is really simple to understand.. survival of the fittest.. He only wants the strong ( mutants ) to survive.. And in this movie he is just mad that it's the weak ( world leaders ) that are controlling the rest.. so he wants to take them out

[@HBarnill]

Deadpool is the only X-Men film I really loved.

[@ugoho]

I have to question how much of the source material you've read to criticize the power creep in this. Magneto torching a city as you guys says he does isn't something ridiculous. This isn't me crapping on Marvel or calling Korey a Marvel b*tch but honestly to criticize Singer for being somewhat faithful power wise to the characters but not for Marvel neutering their characters to the point where they need a team effort to stop things that some of them can easily handle alone isn't exactly fair imo. These are super powered beings, them using their powers to a somewhat accurate extent shouldn't be seen as too much or ridiculous, if anything its ridiculous for them to be neutered to the extent of being jobbers essentially, Drax for example in GoTG is basically made to look like trash, Drax is far from that to say the least. Heck both Avengers movies suffer from this, the likes of Thor, Hulk and even Ironman are being chained down power wise so much that when other non MCU characters let loose it's now seen as overblown and outlandish when if anything it's the other way around that such characters in the MCU are powered down to such a degree. I look forward to Dr Strange but the neutering that will happen for him will be something else entirely, he might just go from Sorcerer Supreme to a student enrolling at Hogwarts for the first time with the way the MCU downgrades their heroes. You're saying they have to retain some sort of believability, except that is believable. That is a glimpse into the kind of power that is at play in that universe, what isn't believable is Iron man hanging with Thor like they're sparring buddies in the forest scene of AV1 without Thorbuster armor also. It's far more believable for Magneto as you guys put it to do that power wise than for Thor to get downgraded so much or Drax to get hit with what amounts to Jobber status when he's literally punched out Thanos' heart before. Just my thoughts on this and something that i've been seeing coming up quite a bit in a post MoS world.

[@GenericGooner]

Apocalypse was always a more extreme version of magneto. Because my only did he believe mutants were the superior beings but he also believed only the strong should survive... so he wanted to cull both humans and mutants he considered weak of mind and body.

[@champollionsshamefulletter3032]

The reason you guys might have missed the plot is because its apparently based on YAKUB the creator of the different races,who has now come back to witness his children/creations and their destructive inventions e.g "spears=rockets" its based on actual historical FACT!...look up (MY name) Champollion's shameful letter and see what it says,Champollion was the first European that discovered how to read Egyptian hieroglyphics and when he did he figured out that the Europeans are the "Tamahu" the created ones...created by whom? YAKUB an ancient egyptian. The stone tablet with this information written on it sits in the British Museum today and has been there for centuries.

[@tomimpala]

The Xmen movies are probably my favourites of all the comic book movies. They can be both dark and serious like WB, but also fun and light like Marvel. It's not pigeonholed. As for the movie, just saw it about an hour ago, and I was happy with what I got. Singer's a great director and he's not running out of interesting ideas for the Xmen universe any time soon. I'm really surprised by the negative reviews actually, maybe this is just people bandwagonning because they think the end (of comic book movies) is coming. A shame because this one is probably my favourite so far in the year. Each character's powers got their time to shine in a creative scene and the actors all give good performances. As for JLaw, I had that feeling too. I think it's her line delivery. It's very glide-y. Seeing it as a movie though, you kinda get used to her lower energy and are able to see more nuance. A friend of mine pointed out she might be trying to be blank as to be a sort of act as a template to put other people's personalities on (cause that's her power) and I quite like that theory. Fassbender was good, but I felt sorry for some of the lines/actions he was given in the movie. Almost broke immersion for me. It's weird, where this film doesn't need to do much to have a big effect, it does a lot, and where this film does need to carry out a serious tone, it jokes at itself. Spoiler this paragraph spoiler spoiler! when Eric was yelling up into the sky questioning his existence, I felt it logically made sense, but could have been done better. Just a bit too overdone. Also, when Apocolypse was launching the nukes, it was a huge moment for me and really carried weight. A lot of movies have the villain taking control in the last 15 minute and then the characters stop him in the last, but here he was not messing about. That's why it was so surprising that they put the Stan Lee cameo there. In a scene where the music and acting is telling you to feel frightened and in awe, everyone in the cinema was going "Oh look! haha" which, I gather, is not intended lol. Overall, I'd say this film was a 7 or 8 (an actual 7 or 8, not a 7 meaning average, a seven). Singer was creative, the actors were into it, and the payoff for watching the older films was satisfying. I'd never seen First Class, but now I wish I had. I'd say that you can watch this movie as its own thing, but there's more reward in seeing the older films. Maybe watch 1st and Future as they want this to be seen as a trilogy? Oh yeah, minor problems I had were the usual Hollywood-isms. Characters would whisper really far away and still be heard by other characters, "the single tear rolls down face", and I'm sure there were other things. I like how (mild spoiler) whenever it got into the cliche love stuff the movie snap out of it. Go see it! Best comic book film this year.

[@mitijr2031]

Matthew Vaugn makes the best X Men movie. This movie isn't that bad though.

[@thefearmakerlive]

Mathew Vaughn, not Bryan Singer, made the best X-men movie (First Class). Days of Future Past is good, and X-2 was great for it's time, but First Class is the best movie. First Class is so good that you forget that Professor X is supposed to be in a wheelchair until the end.

[@Land967]

I'm fairly sure that New York was in one of the destruction scenes (the one with the bridges iirc) and 95% sure they still had the Twin Towers there in the background. edit: 14:06 in this video, you can clearly see them.

[@rufusdavis137]

The one major complaint I had with this movie is that Apocalypse isn't 6 or 6.5 ft. tall like he was in the comics

[@MystikalScopeProductions]

Rufus Davis no amount of CG or boots can make Oscar Isaac sadly. The man is fun sized

[@TTOMZZ]

Martin doesn't like Spiderman 2. He should leave now

[@gdogg2000]

Watching a Fox/X-men movie is like buying a jigsaw puzzle, seeing clearly what the picture SHOULD BE on the outside of the box, then watching as Fox Forces the pieces to fit, however they personally feel they should fit. The end result is always a big sloppy mess. Their films also lack authenticity that you see in current Marvel owned projects. What boggles the mind is how the people involved in these projects are unwilling to do any research on these characters. The fact that Mystique is an X-man is hilariously uninformed. Mystique is a villain period and has always been selfish. Either Fox does not understand any of these characters, or they don't care.

[@Mediocre_Spidey]

Martin telling it like it is for Spider-Man 2. I will stand with you.

[@SunGawdRa]

Somebody has to.

[@brreezy421]

Although I love these guys, martin has some revisionist history. Go watch the spiderman 3 spill review, he very nearly gave it a better than sex and said it was the best of the 3, lol.

[@justanotherdxy]

So from what I'm hearing "I heard the reviews were awful so it has to be completely awful so let's bash it"

[@reddragon0624]

It's certainly not "good" but it's not 100% awful....just completely pointless. This movie only exists because it has to so Fox can keep the rights

[@draxtheliteralist1107]

He wanted to be a dictator of a world ruled by mutants, its not hard to understand.

[@michaelwood9559]

this movie was eh, especially compared to Days of Future Past. especially the last hour, it's like the director dumped CGI onto the screen in buckets for the whole last fight scene. Also I get that Apocalypse powered up Magneto but damn he made him more powerful than him, like seriously he starts to pick up and destroy the whole WORLD? and the whole Gene thing made no sense at all lmao it's a rental for sure

[@OtakuUnderground92]

1. You clearly aren't familiar with Jean's powers. 2. I thought the CGI was needed (simulates the end of the world...the Apocalypse).... They did say something about metal being deep within the earth, so yeah.

[@michaelwood9559]

TheNegroShoddy yeah I do I saw the later movies she's got that gay ass phoenix power within her or something, thought it was dumb as shit in those bad X-men here it was just another excuse to dump a massive CG firebird on the screen

[@OtakuUnderground92]

Michael Wood Wow, your the first person I've seen act like they don't care for the Phoenix, which is a HUGE part of her character. I thought they set that up nicely in the beginning of the film. Really what else could it have been? At least they actually did it this time unlike X3, where we don't get to see the firebird around her.

[@michaelwood9559]

TheNegroShoddy well the firebird wouldn't have saved X3 lol, I mean it was cool but there was like no explanation in the movie, like why is she able to destroy Apocalypse... I mean I get she's got raw and untapped power but Apocalypse is what an ancient mutant lives 10,000 years absorbing power than bam he meets Gene and he's fucked? idk it seemed very weak and shallow as a way to defeat him comes out of no where, but I do like how Storm turns and that Mystique trick

[@OtakuUnderground92]

Well it wasn't really just her. It was quite a team effort, though she really helped turn the tide.

[@emyf9197]

Everytime they set movies in 80s they'll always play sweet dreams.. Like we get it.. There's more songs that represents 80s..

[@themightyjim3614]

Name 3 other movies with sweet dreams

[@thomasbaron5367]

5:59 "I tol'ya I'm tryin'a take a shit!" LOL xD

[@rufusdavis137]

The movie was great but the one thing I didn't like was why wasn't Apocalypse a little bit taller than everyone else like he is in the comics?
