FIVE OBSERVATIONS:

1 I went in thinking I was going to be confused by the plot but it was pretty easy to follow. It was an interesting storyline, I just seems more logical if they went further back in time instead of waiting until a couple of days before the pivotal event.  

2 The scenes of Quicksilver breaking Magneto out was amazing. Best part of the movie. Great job by Evan Peters (American Horror Story).

3 Enjoyed watching McAvoy as a broken Professor X. I wish they gave Jennifer Lawrence a bit more dialogue in the film though.  

4 Like JJ Abrams with Star Trek, Singer does a great job basically restarting the franchise. Loved all the cameos.

5 Interesting tease of X-Men: Apocalypse coming in 2016. Google it for more information, like I did.

RECOMMENDATION: Big screen fun.
