The moment I have been
waiting for! Now that its Easter break I can have movie days and I have a few
films to help fill up my week.
Lets start the day with
x-men: Days of future past and of course a special thanks to yo-yo for
providing the film and location this time.
Recently Bryan singer has
taken to making rubbish films followed by slightly ok films. Nothing has been
as good as the first x-men films. This was an ok film, nothing more and nothing
less. The inability to connect all the films in a sensible way is not only
irritating but very confusing. Sometimes things link and other times they just
don't at all.
The most irritating part of
all has to be when the writers couldn't manage to look back over the previous
scripts and get line of 'go fuck yourself' (the actual line from first class)
correct instead of 'fuck off' which is the line they used in this film.
I dislike how high Jackman
can hardly feature in these films and keep his clothes on. I disliked that
James McAvoy had a beard and no powers... Intact I didn't really like much of
it. To many times they have crossed the boundaries in this film, jumped time
and space and all that rubbish.
No laughable moments and a
few angry moments but nothing that really justifies spending more than about £2
on the film. If you have to wait for a year before you can get it at that price
then fine, its not the end of the world and its not worth paying any more than that for.
OK, but nothing more. A
desperate attempt to make up for a lack of toward thinking towards how
successful these films were going to be. As the sound of music says:'lets start
at the very beginning, a very good place to start'. These words should have
been taken when they sat down to make the first film years ago. It is much
easier to go toward than it is to jump back and forwards all the time.
Bryan singer should know when
to quit. Things are going to be very confusing if they keep making more films
and they did leave it open to make at least one more.
Watching this film made me
feel like I was watching inception again. It was all a dream within a dream
until the end became very unclear. Tinker tailor soldier spy was easier to follow
than this and so was memento!
We both agreed that at least
half of the budget must have been spent on the opening sciency sequence that
has nothing to do with the film bit is shot in such a way that you have to sit
there and admire it.
The filming was great...
Story line was rubbish.
