This is a really solid prequel in the X-Men series and partly made up for the two disasters that came before it. I think one of the strongest points of this film is its casting, particularly with James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender who are both really good (aside from Fassbender's irishness seeping in at the end). So acting is solid, action is solid and its construction and execution is solid. On whole this is a film that has a number of great moments but the overall product doesn't quite overwhelm as much I'd like it too.
