[@sadmancho]

I liked this movie more than Avengers.

[@SubterrelProspector]

Best opening ever. lol

[@justafidemyself]

I LOVED the movie, in fact, I loved it so much that first thing I did when i came back home is rewatch all of the x men movies from start, that's what a movie is supposed to do , make you interested again in the universe, and it did that perfectly.

[@ReallyBadSeed]

I think to clarify, when someone "nitpicks", it's NOT because a film didn't work. Nitpicking is when someone really looks for things to be critical about because they want to find some and be contrary. Such an individual finds things to complain about that are extremely minor, so minor that the average person wouldn't give two seconds thought to those same things enough to even mention it.

[@passialdb]

Quick Silver does have the best sequence and the score that they chose is pretty great!

[@ReeferInferno]

I loved this so much, I'm more excited for Apocalypse than Batman v Superman now.

[@rodrilover17]

I think it's going to be hard for Aaron Taylor Johnson to beat Evan peters as quicksilver. He has become one of my favorite superheroe

[@trenton5809]

In my opinion, Aaron is better

[@IvanKroloCroGeek0424]

A fantastic film in every possible way! I cannot believe how good it turned out when it could've gone so horribly wrong.

[@oscarmike1131]

Friday can't get here soon enough

[@raphaelalexander3692]

Best X-men movie by far.

[@MariaVosa]

Phew! So happy/relieved the consesus seems to be it's a great installment. Can't wait to see it!

[@alexpegasus6833]

Great review Grace. You just reaffirmed my commitment back to this franchise.

[@mikelykan.9416]

I saw X Men- Days Of Future Past and despite my fears of a repeat of the ill fated X Men-The Last Stand, i was surprisingly impressed. He did it! Bryan Singer pulled it off and squeezed a big story into 2hrs 10mins without forgetting the plot and losing control..Brilliant loved it.

[@alexpegasus6833]

Best opening to any of your reviews Grace. Your sentiment is echoed throughout the X-Men movie franchise.

[@actionfx1]

I think you're nitpicking with lack of female characters on here (especially cause the the Last stand was mostly about Jean and the cure. I won't say spoilers of what happens to a lot of them though) Mystique, Shadowcat/Kitty, Blink and Storm (and a couple others that I won't spoil) each had their own great moments in the film and while the men do outnumber the women in this one (which I'll admit is a bit odd for X-men), it was so minor of a detail cause everyone on screen was so well developed and/or was able to establish an emotional connection to the audience, that I didn't even notice it till now.

[@apollolancer78]

Thanks for the great review, Grace! Watched the film, loved every single second of it, from the beginning of the gruesome battle against the future sentinels (why their created advanced technology completely links every character on the show, both past & future) to the end with the message of HOPE has been restored. One of the best, if not the greatest X-MEN movie since X2, apart from the nostalgic elements of bringing the characters from the first trilogy. It's definitely a great mix of grit, action, effects & how the sequences are all linked so well together.I am superbly impressed with Singer, he has done a fantastic job, which he totally rescued the movie franchise & restoring faith in the hearts of the comic-book fans. Most importantly, him handling a huge cast, and the amount of screen time from each character, magnifies his brilliant direction & artistry! It's like every character was given a fair amount of screen time & relevance without feeling overstuffed, losing focus & wondering why certain characters were underused or why-are-they-even-there? (YES, BRETT RATNER, I AM TALKING TO YOU!) (SPOILER ALERT!) Seeing the altered future after defeating Boliviar Trask & aborting the Sentinels project, was completely satisfying although it's heart-wrenching to watch my favorite characters in the future brutally killed by the Sentinels! Actually, they are really scary (which is good thing) Watching the key characters coming back to life which Brett Ratner mercilessly killed off from the previous franchise was AWESOME to the max! (Yes, Kelsey Grammar, Famke Jaansen & James Marsden - SCREAMS!) Lastly, big scream for the few secs cameo of Rogue (Much gratitude to Singer for not cutting Anna Paquin from the movie completely!)

[@misternice4667]

Quicksilver was an absolute scene stealer...I wanted More! Great Movie!

[@sennasobeilo106]

I agree with what you're saying in this review Grace but I have to say that this movie was, in my opinion, a strong enough movie that it didn't feel as just a setup for Apocalypse. Loved your review and keep up the good work!

[@alexpegasus6833]

What I want to know is Cyclops in this film at all? If want to talk about underused and misused X-Men, he is definitely at the top of everybody's list.

[@spiderjeranimo4992]

Rouge is top of that list for me but Cyclops is close. :)

[@alexpegasus6833]

Can't argue Rogue but to me, Cyclops is X-Men right behind Xavier. The first X-Man and the resound leader of the team.

[@GXrevolution96]

Spoiler Alert - Yes, he is.

[@alexpegasus6833]

Skyebright1- yes, I was very happy at the end! This was Bryan Singer's big F*ck you to Ratner!

[@KevlarAnima]

Grace going to see X2 with her parents is just about the cutest thing I've heard. She should be cast as Miss Marvel.

[@littlenichol94]

In the future part I actually thought blink was a stand out character her fight scenes were amazing they used her powers so well hats off to who ever made those scenes

[@sennasobeilo106]

I LOVED this movie, as a movie fan AND an X-men fan. It also really touched me emotionally. The only problem I have with the movie was that it lacked a great score like X-men First Class (Also a movie that I loved!), and that it was in some moments poorly edited. (I blame John Ottman).

[@pyropower]

Your review has made me 100x more hyped for this movie. I'm seeing it tomorrow! *Mutant and proud*

[@InvincibleKratos]

I remember going to the cinema to watch X-Men 2 just like you did. I still remember that feeling that I got, the whole scope of the movie and the way I was blown away by it all those years ago. I do hope this movie does write all the wrongs in the previous movies, especially Origins, the more I watch and the more I think about it, the more I hate it. However, I don't hate The Last Stand as much as everyone else, I though it was good but definitely a disappointment.

[@SteeleCarterable]

Great review, although, I do have to respectfully disagree with you with one point--I believe that nitpicking occurs when the movie/show/comic was so good that you have to find, or nitpick, at some of its very few flaws. Anyway, I just got back from seeing the movie and I loved it.

[@MaximusBlack]

When Grace has an issue with something it's always about females lol

[@GeorgetheGreat]

Xmen is badass loved it. but one thing I don't understand is why are critics giving the spidey movie bad ratings. When hear many of the fans it was great. Someone plzz explain

[@zasddsaf]

Right on point about "nitpicking a film" Grace! :) Great review as always

[@xboxallin2953]

Totally agree with you Grace, X2 is one of if not my favorite comic book movie of all time. I still watch it now for the simple reasons that you so eloquently noted. Great story, cast, pacing, etc. Great review.

[@DeFaulty101]

Holy shit, Grace! You have 250 thousand subscribers! :O I haven't checked since before you cancelled the audience reviews when you only had a few thousand! WOW!!! Congrats! :D

[@kbg12ila]

This is my favorite Comic Book movies of all time!!!!!

[@LukeLovesRose]

Agreed.

[@Nytellem]

Ok if you actually like a movie then I know I'm going to LOVE!! This movie. Plus X2 was my most favorite xmen movie out of all the others.

[@Arezoo298195]

I loved it and I totally get what you said about wanting to see the next one right away. The story feels far from finished but at the same time satisfies. And quicksilver was totally awesome!

[@wikiwally]

Hey should Marvel be worried about using Quicksilver since he was great in DOFP?

[@thisisnancybot]

I suspect their interpretation of the character will be different enough. Also, I have a weird feeling that the emphasis in Ulton will be on Scarlet Witch over Quicksilver.

[@orkiso1]

Great review Grace!! It will come tomorrow in my country so I don't want spoilers but I need to ask 1 thing. Is Rogue in the movie?

[@WesKain12]

I enjoy your reviews!!!! Keep them coming!!!!

[@williamwalsh1533]

X-men gave Grace some eye candy and Beyond The Trailer gives me eye candy. Grace, you never fail to disappoint (beauty and brains in abundance).

[@nytrance2563]

it has now averaged out to a Certified 91% on rotten tomatoes. This movie is going to be epic!!!!!!!!!!

[@KILLAWATTS804]

I can't believe I'm agreeing with this woman...LOL I loved the "potential" the movie brings as well!! Nice to be back as a subscriber!

[@unicyclepeon]

Nostalgia and Promise are a big part of why I loved Godzilla and ASM2. So I guess I'll give this one a shot.

[@sadekie3609]

Best opening Grace

[@0ElaEnchanted0]

I wished that they had kept Kitty as the one who time traveled, she is my favorite x-man ever! but I do love some Hugh Jackman

[@TorusMorganite]

*X-Men: Evolution* was the only comic-based cartoon I watched every Saturday as a kid (excluding Static Shock), so I love the films & knowing this one is great..?? I am so, so, *so* bloody excited to see *DOFP*..! #stoked !

[@579093]

Grace knows soooo much. You deserve more credit.

[@Ramkard]

I agree with your review Grace. I saw an early release this tuesday and this movie was amazing. Quicksilver debut has got to be one of the best scenes in the movie. love your reviews.

[@alfredo101109]

Schomes like it, Jeremy Jahs like it (nice), and Grace like it?????? Yup my fav review KZbinrs like it, im sold

[@georgewilson4560]

Any review that's starts with F**k you is awesome in my book. Randolph for PresIdent 2024.

[@GnarlsBarkley123]

I wish Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver's twin sister, would have been referenced. Thats the only real problem I have. Overall great movie.

[@unclebart100]

?: Grace, love your channel! You mentioned that one of the emotions you have after walking out after a well done film in a cinematic universe, is "I can't wait to see the next one." Would a studio ever consider releasing films concurrently in theaters from the same universe, in order to capitalize on this excitement or momentum? I think as the lines between quality tv and movies keep getting rewritten, this would be a very interesting move. Why might this move work or not work, and if a franchise were to try it, which would most likely succeed?

[@mohamedalmahfood]

X-Men Days of Future past is the best part of the X-Man series ever

[@amoore05359]

Loved the movie

[@vingram100]

I love this franchise so much and I'm glad that it has recovered from the X3 backlash. But I'm with you Grace on the lack of female roles. Sometimes I think that they purposely chose Halle Berry for Storm because she would not overshadow the male characters with her meek interpretation of Storm. It's a huge weakness in this franchise that is becoming more noticeable as females begin taking on stronger roles little by little each year. And I don't see it changing as long as Singer is directing.

[@StarwarsCustomizer12]

I really want to see your spoiler review since I'm so hyped for this movie and want to hear all I can about how great it was. But on the other hand I want to go into it surprised when I watch the movie. ...Must resist.

[@milleda75]

Thanks Grace for your review. I'm so ready for this that I took the day off tomorrow. Batman and X-Men are my favorite comics. I also agree with you in regards to the female representation. There are so many female characters that should be showcase on screen. Finally, I was contemplating whether to see this movie in 3D, now I will only go see it in 2D.

[@BeyondTheTrailer]

That's so cool you took the day off! I hope you have fun!! :) And hopefully we'll get more X-Ladies in Apocalypse! - Grace

[@jesseradke4926]

Beyond The Trailer grace you're my eye candy :)

[@apollolancer78]

Beyond The Trailer As much as I would like the Age of Apocalypse featuring more of Rogue & Kitty (I adore Ellen Page btw), the movie is gonna be set in the 80s therefore it'd highly unlikely. Although it's funny watching Famke's digitally botoxed face on screen given the actress is nearly 50, I'm looking forward to see the younger versions of Jean Grey, Cyclops (now that they are alive!) & Storm. And of course, Scarlett Witch, Gambit (confirmed) & Archangel (4 horsemen hint hint!) I wish 2016 was here already! :P

[@Killinemkid]

I love that you look for all the same components of these superhero movies as me. I'll make sure to come to this channel before I watch a movie from now on.

[@erevaj]

One thing I also appreciated was that the film wasn't solely about Wolverine. There was space for many other characters to shine it really felt like an ensemble film and not Wolverine & The X-Men. Even though Wolverine is my 2nd favorite X-Men, I think he's always amazing when he is badass Wolverine and doesn't take on the role of leader like in X3

[@margaretnguyen3048]

It says somewhere they're calling the accuser's creditability into question so maybe Bryan singer didn't do it

[@enimavix]

Hugh Jackman's Wolverine = Over Utilized Other Characters = Under Utilized

[@vingram100]

So true. I love Hugh Jackman and Wolverine, but his overuse is why I typically skip X-men movies now or just wait to rent.

[@Nightlightknight]

Not really the case here, if anything Wolverine was downplayed I thought.

[@Fallengrademen]

I'm pretty sure you haven't watch the movie.

[@hoohoo7743]

That's what's really great about this movie, Wolverine is in the forefront of the movie but it isn't just Wolverine and pals.

[@Eclipto14]

Blink got a lot of screen time to show off her power's utility. Bishop on the other hand...

[@eskywellmain8496]

I loved the film and couldn't be happier that singer is back at the helm, but I didn't understand what the end credit scene was about and I am trying to figure out how wolverine has his metal claws in the future as in the wolverine they get reduced back to bone claws.

[@nytrance2563]

wow im so stoked for this movie after your review! I love the X-men, they are my favorite marvel characters and to see how this going to play out, its going to be exciting. Currently its at 93% at rotten tomatoes.

[@sadekie3609]

It went up to 95% now on rotten tomatoes

[@korisnthere]

I hope they introduce nightcrawler again as well as gambit again. I also really wish they used kitty pryde instead of wolverine though I know it's because he gets people in theaters. Its just she's one of my favorite characters and her development in the comics from child to adult was really interesting. Kitty nightcrawler and gambit are my faves.

[@TMSokoya]

I saw this on the 22nd. It was great. I think people need to stop hating on Brett Ratner. It's not his fault that Bryan Singer chose to do Superman Returns (which he was more than entitled to), and James Marsden went with him. All Ratner and the writers did was salvage a bad situation.

[@budee126]

Here's my personal ranking by film quality. It's a tight race within the top 3 but Marvel Studios still holds a strong lead in my opinion: 1. Marvel Studios: Avengers 2. 20th Century Fox: X-Men 3. Warner/Legendary: Justice League (Batman/Superman) 4. Sony: Spiderman One might argue Warner/Legendary holding #2 right now, but i bet not after this weekend. So long as Kevin Feige is up there overseeing everything i don't see Marvel coming down from that #1 Perch though. And despite all our anticipation i think there's nobody more excited about Avengers: Age of Ultron than Joss Whedon himself. I have full confidence my expectations won't be let down at least for Age of Ultron. The good news is with the bar set so extremely high we should see the best out of all these films as they battle it out over the next decade or two. Or forever.

[@swaginstefano]

Marvel fans appreciate the marvel movies People who only watched marvel movies always criticize it too much. I loved amazing spider man 2, winter solider, and x men was the best marvel movie so far. Lets just wait for guardian of the galaxy

[@oscarmike1131]

Great review, only problem was the Ratner jab. Why does he get all the blame and yet the writers of X3 get off easy? Same with Batman and Robin. Everyone blames Schumacher but not one complaint is aimed at the writer

[@rickardcooper6063]

Perhaps it wasn't a "distraction", merely that Brian Singer likes "eye candy" as well. Just his preference and his vision akin to Russ Meyer. He likes what he likes.

[@abelgrave]

Grace, your definition of nitpicking is incorrect. Nitpicking or hyper criticism usually means "...trivial, and unjustified fault finding to excess." So it is when a movie DOES work but a person goes out of their way to find something wrong with it. Rather than the description you gave at 3:40

[@narcissus9732]

Grace should I see this movie in 3d or would it not make a great deal difference and hinder the movie going experience?

[@WesKain12]

As I thought about Magneto putting metal into the Sentinels it seemed it he only controlled their gun arms which the metal could probably pull the trigger. He did let the one Sentinel on the lose to kill Hank and Logan. I also think their was just an on switch that was easily pulled. These are my thoughts. He was unable To control the main program, but was able to have a puppet on a string with metal.

[@sfighter0085]

Saw it this past Sunday. It was awesome.

[@corpsereviver6771]

Awesome!!!and watch out for quicksilver!

[@Tebigong101]

I must say as soon as I saw Quicksilver and young Magneto in the same scene I was slightly agitated, because I thought "great, another family connection ignored by this franchize". Having now watched this review I want to watch DoFP 2x as much as I did before, like Grace my two favorites are Batman and the X--Men and she ticked off all the boxes to get me excited to see this movie. I usually wait a week or so to allow the crowds to thin out but IDK if I can do that is time and since I saved money by not going to see Spiderman I may even go twice, it sounds so good. *Great review, Grace!!!* I will say though, Grace talks about the lack of female characters, which leads me to point out something I suspect is also missing, racial diversity. There are brown people in the beginning of the movie, but presumably we spend most of the film in the past where Angel Salvadore probably won't be returning and Darwin was "killed" like some "the black guy always dies" horror cliche. So will there be any brown people representing in that car ride or just a bunch of straight white dudes? That kind of thing IS really noticeable when you're dealing with Marvel's most diverse team whether we're talking gender, race, sexuality, or all of the above.

[@MrSuperDecimal]

Erik as Peter's father was acknowledged. When Peter found out that Erik controlled metal, he said that his mother knew such a guy, giving Erik a brief cock-eyed look, and Erik turned away and gave an "uh-oh" sort of look.

[@BrianEYoung]

***** In the comics it took years before they say it. Why rush it?

[@MrSuperDecimal]

***** One thing that Singer really uses well and makes his movies in general successful is a good use of subtlety and allusion. It was a nice touch that would please fans of the comics. If they all out made it a spoken, vocal acknowledgement, then it would become a large storypoint and plot to develop. Less is best.

[@Tebigong101]

MrSuperDecimal I like that reasoning, cause I immediately thought of Mystique and Nightcrawlers brief scene together in X2 and realized it would have interrupted the flow and direction of the movie to acknowledge their relationship. Still wish it would've happened though.

[@phantomfire8228]

2:52

[@TheKingdomKey09]

Yay. I've been waiting all day for this.

[@1Eliyahu]

I can't wait to see it but, the theater I'm going to only has it in 2D and 3D no IMAX. Would it still be best to see it in 3D for first time viewers of 3D?

[@travisament4280]

Thank you for saying I don't need to see it in 3d at the end there. I always count on your non spoiler reviews to tell me if I should see a movie in 3d or not.

[@willcme1]

Excellent review Grace!!!

[@conrad152]

A passionate review Grace.

[@KevinLynnPorter]

Can't wait to see this movie!!! Wolverine is the main reason why i have a beard. He's my favorite!

[@passialdb]

I just watched the movie today! #AMAZING!!!!!!!

[@ryanchaglasian4460]

Grace, that was the best opening ever. :)

[@flak016able]

Question : I am trying tho get into the X-Men comics. Does Amy body have a good starting point that is recent?

[@RealHousewivesIntros]

Grace, can you say if Rouge is seen at all in DOFP? I read that her scene was cut but we see her in a cameo. Do we see her at all in the movie? Thank you :D ~Curtis~

[@MrSuperDecimal]

We do at the very end. I really, really hope that X1 and X2 were not written out of the timeline, as I really enjoyed the dynamic between them in the films. It was really touching. However I believe this logically must be the case. I guess the tragedy of Wolverine is now that all of the friends and relationships he had before are lost forever.

[@tatum635]

rogue had the potential to be bad ass. singer made her so weak tho we never even got to see her fly or get super strength. ugh

[@Nightlightknight]

I think, though I'm not sure (needs second viewing), she may have been there right at the beginning, but it's very likely I'm wrong.

[@johnshepherd7243]

I think right at the start

[@RealHousewivesIntros]

I went to see it last night and spotted her for about 5-10seconds right at the end :D Thanks guys for the help :)

[@chrispine22]

QUESTION!!!!!!! :) Hi Grace, I love beyond the trailer, and think about the ink. I'm a huge X-Men geek fanatic just like you, so I thought you were the perfect person to ask this question. I was wondering with the news that X-Men: Apocalypse will primarily take place in the 1980's, introducing a young Scott, Jean, and Ororo, where do you think it would it go in story? It got me thinking, with these current films they tend to take real events of the time, and implement it into the story, I'm just spitting this out, but I wanted to know what you thought about the idea of the Legacy Virus, being involved in some way, and how mutants are blamed for it as a metaphor for the A.I.D.S. crisis that occurred at that time. Apocalypse and maybe Mister Sinister have something to do with the virus. Anyway I ask questions a lot,and I know this is a popular subject, but I really hope you can answer my question thank you so much.

[@OhmsFTW]

I don't know Grace. Sure the movie made right many of the wrongs from Last Stand, but it didn't explain it all. How did Charles survive getting pulverized? How come Magneto's powers returned? The Wolverine end-credits scene left me at the edge of my seat, wondering how they could possibly have completely undone what happened in Last Stand. And yet it was not touched on. Also! The timelines! If the "future-sentinel" timeline is the same as the one where X2, Last Stand and so on took place, then how come that Mystique killing Boliver Trask (which supposedly was what started the war) happened 50 years before the war began. I mean in the X2 and Last Stand there were no mentions of Sentinels and in fact with Hank McCoy as a politician, it seemed as if the mutant public-image was doing well! Yet somewhere after that, an event that happened in the 70s caused a mutant-extinction program? Maybe I just misunderstood the timelines, but I certainly think this movie deserved nitpicking. Even if the movie worked, which I do agree it did.

[@MrDavidTheDancer]

Not sure if Magneto or Prof. X's return needed to be explained...I mean it would be nice but the end of X-Men The Last Stand hinted at Magneto's powers returning and at least the consciousness of Prof. X returning. Maybe that will be explained more in Age of Apocolypse? I will watch this movie on Sunday so I am excited!

[@ReeferInferno]

well at the end of X3 magneto was able to move the chess piece slightly implying that the cure wasn't permanent. The Charles bit is a bit messy however, there's an end credit scene where he put his mind in a person in a coma he mentioned earlier but he's still in a wheelchair so I'm not sure about that.

[@GXrevolution96]

No, I was wondering the exact same thing. Some of it was so unclear, like how exactly Kitty can send people back in time and what happened regarding Logan at the end, and the incorporation with this new timeline for example, in the replaced timeline, did Logan join the X-men the same way he did in the original trilogy.

[@NeoZource]

best intro ever Grace lol

[@solomonealedona7233]

Some questions were left unanswered like: how did Wolverine get back his adamantium claws? Kitty now has psychic powers? Why not send Professor X back as he has a stronger mental brain power then Logan? Also how did the event effect the time line which causes Jean to remain alive?....the last question will hopefully be answered in the next movie.

[@rosssapp6990]

yea I agree with this but im not complaining about bringing jean back or Cyclops.

[@Doomer253]

The only thing Singer and FOX got right about the X-men is the 'metaphor' and a couple casting choices in Stewart and McKellan.

[@stridin]

Grace you're telling that X-4 is mostly a sausage fest. Where are my X-babes? I to believe that is X-men is the better team than Avengers and Justice League. Simply because, they have always been a team of outcast and almost never getting any reignition. Looking forward to see the movie tomorrow.

[@MLadyKlee]

Wow! Grace that opening got my attention.

[@MarioUcomics]

LOL the beginning!!!! I can finally watch this after getting back from the theater! But where was Stan lee cameo. Did I miss him?

[@ToNio00000000]

GREATEST. INTRO. EVER.

[@killdalamb3357]

Quicksilver was awesome and funny...

[@dman0000hut]

Lupita Nyongo as storm? What do you think? Could this happen since she won an oscar?? Thanks great review :)

[@Numbuh1NerdX]

I noticed one strange continuity error, where in just one cut from past Wolverine to future Wolverine, future Wolverine had his metal claws back. He had the bone claws just a scene or so before I swear, but then all of a sudden *BAM* adamantium claws. That really bugged me. Honestly, that's one of my only two problems with this movie. Well, three, but the third is just about what they retconned and to what degree they did it, but that's all about where Fox takes the franchise form here, so whatever.

[@aslandarklion8094]

Wow miss Grace !!! That is so funny. I mean I had to do a double take. Lol ; D

[@davidanderson5259]

Well Grace...I'm NOT going to watch your spoiler review right now, because I haven't seen the movie yet. I _will_ be seeing it tomorrow [AVX 3-D] and I'm totally pumped by this review. Thanks!

[@hercourdog5555]

Whys everyone saying that X-men days of future past will be the highest grossing film of the year? I'm really not trying to be a troll, but I'm curious because x men the last stand didn't even gross 500 million worldwide. So what, you just assume that it will beat all the other summer blockbusters?

[@kevinhernandez09515]

Did they bring Rouge back?

[@stillorgan2625]

How was Peter Dinklage as Bolivar Trask? I heard he was underused.

[@rokaanalzeer]

He was pretty good

[@rokaanalzeer]

I liked that he didn't play the role evil actually.

[@legssadovsky6021]

grace I have a question. So since they're talking about a Mystique spin off, do you think they've dive into her sexual orientation and vast amount of unique love interests she has had in the comics? I know that xmen origins has made her MUCH younger than she is in the comics, but you said in your review that she's more like her comic counterpart here than in any of xmen movie. I'm asking out of curiosity because i really think mystique has had such a geninue portrayal of her sexual fluidity in the comics and i'd like to see that in a film. Most lgbt characters in films are used as props or as stereotypes and I don't think mystique is either of those. I also think x-men is about diversity, struggle, discrimination.. it'd be nice to have a positive portray of a lgbt character in this franchise. Anyway thank you for the review I'm very excited to see this movie. ALSO! (sorry edit) do you think younger storm could be played by lupita nyong'o??

[@Zactastical]

I thought Nicholas Hoult did a fantastic job as Beast :)
