Reading about this film and its story line, I did expect more from it. Loved the idea and the concept as it unfolded in the beginning of the movie, loved the atmosphere, but somehow I felt that a specific "wow" element was not there. Still cannot explain why, but this was my feeling.
Don't get me wrong, I did not expect to see Prof. Xavier's school with mutants, etc., but I did wait something more. Peculiar was right to the spot as a word cause that's what these kids were in the end. The movie was really Tim Burtonish, which is a good thing always! Photography was awesome as well as the scenery and setting of the movie.
Samuel L. Jackson was amazing as well, both in his acting but also in terms of his character! A really pleasant movie to watch, even with your children. I really really enjoyed it, despite the fact that I had higher hopes for it. I do recommend it of course, highly!

Maybe 9 out of 10 is way too much, but for me, this was the kind of movie that hit the nail on the head! I loved every minute of it from beginning to end.
Plausible? Most probably (99.9%) not. But it's OK! This guy was as bad ass as it gets! Loved the action scenes, loved the plot and the flashbacks throughout the movie, loved it all! I even forgive the apparent plot twist which I suspected.
I liked the fact that the director and writer kind of knitted together lots of the aspects of the movie. I liked all the small coincidences that kept everything together, and especially being a person that really believes that the world is a tiny tiny place, I also believed every single one of them.
J.K. Simmons was nothing short than amazing as was Ben Affleck that really needed a good film like that I think. Anna Kendrick was mediocre and I really can't see why she's in so many movies lately. I would have liked for the movie to work a bit more on this part of Affleck's character though (women).
Having said that, this is a movie that is best watched with the audio really loud, and with company. It's a wow movie in more than one moments. Nice one!
