Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshiped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel's X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto, to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven with the help of Professor X must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction. Written by 20th Century Fox
The movie gave everything I expected from it, and more.
Action? Check.
Drama? Check.
Funny moments and scenes? HUGE check. (still laughing when replying in my mind! :))
Unlike many who watched the pre-premiere, I'm not a groupie of the X-men series, but still enjoyed each and every minute.
Reading other reviews, looks like it's a good thing I'm not a groupie, because that means I don't have to stop and think about every action in the movie. I could just sit back, watch with clear mind, and enjoy.
All in all, just fun to watch. 140 minutes that end with a desire for 140 more.
