Underwhelming and unremarkable. Performance wise, Lawrence
and Fassbender do the heavy lifting, but unfortunately they find themselves standing
around waiting for Oscar Issacs to finish his long speeches. Funny enough,
there’s not a lot of action for an action movie. Like the last movie,
Quicksilver gets his solo, which works, and the cameo from Wolverine kicks ass,
as it should. It’s not terrible, but it feels a bit phoned in.
X-Men always seems to work best when it serves as an allegory for discriminated-against
minorities. There’s little smatterings of that here, especially with Cyclops’
origin story. But there needs to be more. Weird, blue Egyptian Gods bloviating
entertains only for so long.
