Un avis sur X-men Apocalyse, d' après le journaliste qui a pu le voir, ca vole pas très haut, et ca reste en dessous de Days of Future past.
Personnages sous exploités, combats ininteressant ( comparé à ceux épiques de Civil War ). Ca devient redondant et il semble être aussi mal réalisé que X-men 3 à l' époque.
Des overdoses de CG ala transformers pour les destructions, explosions etc.
Et on en resort ennuyé d' après lui. Et qu' il faudrait un vrai renouveau de la saga X-men.
Toujours pas vu Civil War, faudrait que j aille le voir. par contre , cet X-men j' attendrai,ca ne sera pas au ciné que j' irai le voir.
Et apparement encore une fois QuickSilver sauve un peu tout le film à lui tout seul.

X-Men: Days of Future Past was my favorite of the X-Men movies, so I'm disappointed to report that Apocalypse is one of the weakest entries in the franchise so far.
On to the disappointment.I understand Bryan Singer's desire to have an actor as talented as Oscar Isaac play the villain in his movie, but the character of Apocalypse is a colossal waste of Isaac's skills. He wanders around under so much make-up that most audiences will have no idea this character is played by the same guy who played Poe Dameron in The Force Awakens, and he rarely actually does anything aside from talking about the need to build a better world.
The Four Horsemen are essentially non-factors, with Olivia Munn, Ben Hardy, and Alexandra Shipp having probably a combined 10 lines in the film and very little impact on the story at large. Writer Simon Kinberg gives Michael Fassbender's Magneto more tragedy to deal with (I'm trying to be vague so I don't spoil anything), but his entire subplot in this film just didn't land for me. It felt too "written," too obvious, too forced. Fassbender's always done a good job playing up the conflict within that character, and he does a good job with what he's given, but it's starting to feel like too much of a retread of storylines that have already been explored. I suspect the same is true in the comics; I haven't read an X-Men comic in years, but I imagine if I picked up an issue in the current run, there would be thematic and maybe even plot similarities to stuff that was going on the last time I actually did read that series. I realize the X-Men franchise has lasted for sixteen years now, but maybe it's time to get rid of Magneto altogether in these films. There are only so many times you can cover the same ground on film before it starts to feel redundant.
the film devolves into a massive CGI crapfest of floating debris and global landmarks being demolished for no good reason. I'm sure it was very expensive, and those are the kinds of Transformers-esque images that international audiences still gobble up, but haven't we moved beyond scenes like that at this point ? That kind of thing might have been cool or novel fifteen years ago, but when Magneto just floats there with metal spinning around him and it A) doesn't do anything to further illuminate the characters, or B) is something we've seen countless times before, I just feel like the filmmakers missed an opportunity to do something special and interesting. I counted ten different VFX vendors in the film's end credits, so maybe that had something to do with it.
One of the biggest sins an action movie can commit is being boring, and unfortunately I found the fight scenes to be unusually dull, especially in the wake of the airport scene in Captain America: Civil War. That scene has so much energy and creativity in depicting how the characters use their powers against each other, but here, even though the action is filmed in wide enough angles that you can clearly see everything, there's not really much to see. one of the climactic battle for example, might be one of the most boring superhero fights ever committed to film. And it's not like Singer is incapable of filming solid X-Men action beats: the "future" section of Days of Future Past included exactly the type of creatively and visually interesting fights this movie lacks.
It's not a terrible movie, but it's certainly not one of the better entries of this series. I'm looking forward to seeing what this franchise looks like moving forward with a new director in Josh Boone, and I wonder if it also wouldn't benefit from some fresh writing as well. This film is well-cast, and I like the idea of seeing these characters interact in upcoming movies, but after spending a distended two and a half hours with them, I'm ready to take some time away from the X-universe. That Quicksilver scene, though...that one scene alone is so awesome that it makes this whole movie worth watching.
