Just watched V for Vendetta and X-Men: First Class yesterday.
X-Men was actually good, Magneto's back story fitted very perfectly and the rest of it was okay too.
Now, V for Vendetta is now my favourite film of all time, topping the all-time favourite, which was Tron. The whole storyline was addicting and it explained a lot about the Fawkesian masks.

I watched Xmen first class a week or two ago. Really liked it. Fassbender as Magneto was awesome. The only thing that took me out the film a bit was his accent. It was fine at the start of the film but as it went on he seemed to get progressively more Irish. by the end of the film he had a full on Irish accent. Minor quibble really with a great film.
V is a cool movie, want to get the comic, but it has really awful casting.Shadid wrote:Just watched V for Vendetta and X-Men: First Class yesterday.

I watched the "Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides" film yesterday. It was better than Worlds End, but not as good as the first two. It was humorous and had a decent storyline despite the abscence of Orlando and Keira. Not a return to form, but still enjoyable. The only thing I really don't like about some movies like that is when there is a fight, plenty of stuff is going on, but the actual fighting you don't see much of, as in if there was a battle with many people, one stabs the other, but then all of a sudden, before you feel the impact or it sinks your head, it goes straight to another part. I hate action scenes like that. If the camera was on each battle after the stab for a couple of seconds longer, it would be better. Don't know if anyone else thinks that.
