In order to really review this movie you need a clear understanding on what 20th
Century FOX is trying to do with the franchise. This goes all the way back to 2011's
X-Men: First
Class, which in essence was an unofficial try at a series reboot. This was solidified by the follow
up movie
X:Men: Days of Futures Past, which using the characters and setup from
First Class, successfully pulled off one of the most impressive franchise reboots while almost unanimously
pleasing both fans of the first X-Men trilogy (henceforth to be referred to as the
Wolverine Sagas) and the fans of the First Class franchise by using a clever multiple time line
trick which is right at home in not only the X-Men universe but comic books in general.
