Completely redeems the franchise after the last two abominations.
Everyone go check it out. The acting and story are excellent. I get the feeling Michael Fassbender is gonna get quite a few roles as a result of this one, he is fantastic as Magneto. He also gets his second amazing, incredibly tense scene in a bar (the first was Inglourious Basterds).

i did love fasbender, and ofc mcavoy's always good. would have liked to see a bit more showcasing of their friendship before it was damaged
i highly enjoyed the film
my only minor turn-off was how much they crammed in as far as nods/references/setups (the hugh jackman scene made me roll my eyes) which i guess is inevitable with a prequel kinda
but yeah the story moves nicely and acting all around is top-notch
i've always liked the sebastian shaw/hellfire club stuff of the x-verse
although emma frost was played a little differently than i'd envisioned

Emma wasn't bitchy enough.
Also her effect was really awful.
But that was my only complaint about the whole thing really. The characters were all really well done otherwise.

The whole Raven/Mystique robe thing bothered me. How can she change the appearance of the robe to look like clothes? For a while I thought she was just making the robe appear, but then there is a scene when she's 'naked' and then puts her robe on.
Overall though I enjoyed the movie, just found a few nit-picky things that bugged me but not enough to ruin the movie for me.

Finally saw it on Saturday and enjoyed it. It wasn't garbage like the second movie and much better than the Wolverine movie so I'm happy at least.

I assume you mean the third movie.
X2 was pretty fantastic.
