this film sucked...im looking for a review thats really tips this movie apart

[ultimategoobah]

i actually thought the 3rd one was better. dont get me wrong tho, it was terrible.. but at least the plot was vaguely interesting.

[RyanMan099]

Are you serious Ry? How did you give 'X men' a good and then give 'Super 8' a Eff Yea ? Quite disappointed! :(

[KylejMcD]

i definately agree with you. especially beast's make up job, it was just flat out bad and his mouth didn't seem to move naturally when he spoke

[coolmikevids99]

I entirely agree with in every way

[DavidAlanSelby]

I have to say, Ryan hit a lot of the problems right on the head. However, when you see the cheesy or bad acting, I feel like that falls right on the director too man... a good director aught to catch it when your hollywood film is getting crappy acting material. M Vaughn hasn't proved to me that he's a great acting director at all... he's had some great names working for him though! I would even venture to say Bacon's performance wasn't all that impressive in this film though... But McAvoy! WOW

[xXMadTXx]

more like 1:44

[lacrossebap3x6]

They used make up on the beast? damn i thought it was some sort of CG

[JustinWomackMusic]

I enjoyed the movie, however I had two real issues, besides the ones you already mentioned, Ryan. One: I don't like how they blatantly ignored not only the events of the third movie(yes, I remember how much it sucked), but also the way they presented the CIA guy as Colonel Striker, even though he was clearly older in this movie than in X2. Two: I got a real bad vibe of them intentionally stealing the "mexican standoff" scene from Inglourious Basterds in the scene with Fassbender in Argentina.

[biofh]

@JustinWomackMusic i... don't disagree about the Stryker thing, but... you need at least two, but preferably three or more, people with weapons simultaneously on each other to have a Mexican standoff. Not to mention they weren't in an indefensible basement. So I don't see how this could be considered a rip off of Inglorious Basterds other than Fassbender was in both, it was a bar, and he had a gun at one point.

[JustinWomackMusic]

@biofh Well, I had "mexican standoff" in quotes for a reason...if you'll remember, that was Aldo's line in the movie. Also, maybe "stealing" was bad form on my part. I'll give you that. But you have to admit it was at least a nod to that scene.

[joshlongyear]

Completely agree with you RY RY the MOVIE GUY! Beast looked atrocious! Especially when you first see him walking into the hangar...I had to let out a chuckle.

[Deadmansparty2002]

Awesomeness. :)

[LordReserei01]

I thought Beast's makeup was okay personally, better than "X3: The Last Stand"

[crysisguy05]

you lied. the super 8 one min review isn't up yet :( Y U LIE TO ME RY?!

[FilmState]

@crysisguy05 Youtube's uploading was down all last night. We are uploading it now.

[GameGodLazy]

It took you longer then 1 min... that's not a 1 minute review! :D

[soreriotfilms]

@nightwingsurfer LOL!!!

[InuManiac906]

Thumbs up for Super 8!!!!!!

[Sabasis]

Thank you for doing these! I love film state, but it is also really nice to see what you thought after actually seeing the movie. Best of both worlds :D

[sflan93]

i would LOVE a super 8 review :)

[FenderPlayer540]

So when's the Super 8 one minute review???

[Pirate92a]

I loved that frickin movie!

[JIYkp]

Wolverine cameo was awesome.

[Pirate92a]

@JIYkp Haha! Yeah, that scene was the funniest. Them not even trying they just walked out. Even Erik didn't want to mess with him

[CarrbonMedia]

1 min?! 1:44

[LordZope]

Want to see a great film with Michael Fassbender check out the British drama Fish Tank. It's seriously good and not afraid to get really series and bleak in places with amazing performances all round especially the lead Katie Jarvis who hasn't been in anything before or since but was up for the lead role in the new The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo for a while.

[Randomntn]

Ryan I give you a rating of "Good" as well, Good Delivery, one mistake that we won't focus on but you are a professional.

[soreriotfilms]

YOU STOLE MY IDEA!!! I HAD LOADS OF PLANS TO MAKE A ONE-MINUTE MOVIE REVIEWS AND NOW... PEOPLE WILL THINK I STOLE IT FROM YOU!!! GRRR!!!! Great review, BTW.

[nightwingsurfer]

@soreriotfilms make a 50 seconds review and beat the ry-guy to the meat

[DirtyDean0]

What did you make your intros in?

[beennj613]

yeah he did look like a cat D:

[Comicfan18]

The flaw of the history of this doesnt bother anyone?! This isnt true to the comic! I know movies take a few liberties with comic books, but I just cant bring myself to watch it because they effed up the story line so much!

[ToonstaTV]

@oll37410 Stark

[Imagewicked]

Just a question which mystique young mystique or normal was badly castes?

[SeigidasLullaby]

@Imagewicked I'd imagine normal Mystique. There were moments when I wanted to punch her in the throat. And I didn't like how she looked as Mystique with her blue on, so yeaah..

[trailerfitter2]

Good? lol Film state is just good huh?

[thenihal2210]

i agree on the beast make up just looks too fake

[CalclaviaProduction]

2 words: It's good.

[OHMAHGAA]

LIKED! keep up the good work

[SALVATl0N]

Hey, this video was 1 minute and 43 seconds. You tricked me! I'll get you Ryan Conelly, you'll see, I'll get you someday...

[vidvisionify]

Fix that outro. It looks fugly.

[URBANAMERICANTAC]

I really hated the pixey action scenes. They reminded me of some high school low budget wire act. The movie in general was good but there were definitely scenes that were horrible.

[Wynner3]

I have not seen it, yet. Super 8 was pretty damn good. I saw it with Motion Seats (D-Box) and both, my girlfriend, and I loved it,

[NovemberNinja]

Super 8 please!

[dysfunctional337]

i was the only person out of the 15 of us that went to see this at midnight that said exactly everything you said about the film and nothing more. every1 else was like "wow, super heros, explosions, wow". im happy that im not alone...

[ZelloBrosPro]

Do one of Super 8! I just saw it... I want to know what you think!

[popou]

i feel you dawg

[wrenthereaper]

Best scene of the movie was when Erik was in Argentina and they have the suspenseful cheers to having names taken away. That was pure generousness and the following moments of satisfied vindication were glorious. Michael Fassbinder is now one of my favorite actors. Talk about epic.

[HotSugaBrown]

Was anyone else bothered by the lack of blood? Blood hits are the cow bell of action movies.

[stewdippin]

Great Review, I can't wait for more of this!

[greenmachine2005]

My only real problem with the film was the continuity errors. In the beginning of X3, Xavier is walking around, a older man and still friends with Magneto. Also walking around in Origins. But at the end of this film he is paralyzed and professor x and magneto are no longer friends. WTF Singer!

[RealityIsRealtive]

@greenmachine2005 they ignored the existance of those awful movies

[FIREHAWKProduction]

can't wait to hear about you and super 8 :)

[Z0mbieGenocide]

So I know you already do FilmState, and WatchTalk... and FilmRiot... and you are working on Tell... buuuuuuut this was awesome and you should keep doing reviews. I just want more of you in my eye holes.

[ConnorGunn]

Also I thought that Jennifer Lawerence was fine, the problem was they gave her the worst lines (see Mutant and proud). But whenever she wasn't talking, that was when she did a really good job. Although I might just be biased after seeing her being awesome in Winters Bone and because she is smexy

[FilmState]

@ConnorGunn Well, my argument for that would be... Jame McAvoy said the same line earlier in the movie and it worked.

[MaplewoodStudios]

I would like a 1 minute review on SUPER 8 :D

[TheRunningManFilms]

Looking forward to your review on Super 8. Just saw it- AWESOME!!!

[imnotlikeothergirls5]

So....... Chipmunk=amazing........ Well ok then.

[UnTabarnaco]

I love the picture you're using for "action".

[FiveFeetFromFailure]

my favorite scene was when magneto kills those guys in the bar. Fassbender and Mcavoy did a really good job in this one. Also like the cameos in the movie

[seansomoray09]

Cats! lol! can't wait for super 8!!!!

[bgcorporation]

The reason why they made Beast look like that is because that's how he looks now. It's weird they gave Beast his second mutation in the 60s yet in the 2000s he seemed like the one we all know. This is why I didn't like the non-consistency between this movie and the others.

[animaxindustries]

@bgcorporation I 100% see what you mean, however, it happens that this movie was actually NOT suppost to be in consistency with the others. The director or producer, or someone, said that this was a prequel rebooting the series. If you wanna check for yourself, go to imdb.com.

[bryanthomas108]

When web content creators listen to their audience, amazing things can happen. Thanks Ryan, you're awesome! :)

[FilmState]

@bryanthomas108 Oh no sir! It's you guys that are awesome!

[TitusLabs]

A lot of things between this movie and the original 3 x-men movies conflicted with each other. For example, at the end of this movie, charlies and eric ended up going their separate ways and yet in the beginning of X-Men 3, they were visiting Gene together as friends. Second and most obvious, in the beginning of X-Men 3 as well as the end of Wolverine, Charles was walking at an old age and yet in First Class, he was in the wheel chair at a young age. Thoughts in this puzzle?

[FilmState]

@TitusLabs I think they may have decided to ignore that the 3rd film ever happened.

[TitusLabs]

@FilmState That's possible except prof. X wheel chair alone is a pretty large error especially since even if they were to ignore x-men 3, he still wasn't in a wheel chair in Wolverine. The big thing with origins and first class was it was to explain how the first X-men movies came to be. Don't get me wrong, the cause of how Charles getting in that chair was pretty good but I couldn't see the writers over looking it from those other 2 movies.

[buddbasset]

@FilmState me thinks they confirmed that in the trivia segment in IMDb. not sure, though the movie was great and I hope that future x-men films get better. :D

[RealityIsRealtive]

@TitusLabs I read in an article somewhere that they tried to cancel the stories of X3 and X-men Origins: Wolverine due to the fact that those movies were awful

[MrCristiner]

@TitusLabs Thank you, really. The fact that he was paralyzed, even when he was shown walking in the third movie, really pissed me off, i started to yell it out when i got out of the theater, it kinda ruined the movie for me, but i still enjoyed it.

[kreezyFTW]

Thank you very much for listening to us :)

I was one of those who asked for reviews.

[FilmState]

@kreezyFTW Awesome! Well, thank you for the idea my friend!

[UndertonePictures]

it was really hard to pick best performance between michael fassbender and james mcavoy. They were both just so perfect for the roles! p.s....Xavier was such a frat boy.

[kristonholt]

check yo time playa... its 1:44 ...

[FilmState]

@kristonholt They wont be exactly one minute.... Time police! haha

[shadowmaster207]

by cheasy do you mean at the end when raven says and remeber mutant and proud? p.s. I agree with what you said about the makeup with beast. it was terrible!!!

[FilmState]

@shadowmaster207 Yes! She killed that line. haha.

[RyanFarley000]

These 1-minute review videos are a great idea. Love it.

[FilmState]

@RyanFarley000 Thank you!

[thenamesbanana]

Michael Fassbender has my trust with ANYTHING. He was the best part of the movie, but that's just my opinion.

[FilmState]

@thenamesbanana I 100% agree.

[RockingRobert23]

Ryan, thank you soooooo much for answering my request to have this segment!!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!

[RockingRobert23]

I was the one who recommended this segment!!!!!

[Smallavelle]

i didnt like the part where magneto (when he was a boy) was flinging shit around, just looked to fake. and when Sebastion Shaw was supposed to be "frozen" and was wobbling around but otherwise it was good

[Mr128k]

Angels character was a pointless charater in my opion and emma frost did look like she belonged in one of those bud light nascar commercials

[gingerzeppelin]

the only problem with films made from comics or even books is that they never do the comic or book justice, i can't speak for watchmen as i've never read the comic but i really loved the film. and i'm a huge spidey fan so i've got a bad feeling that the reboot is gonna suck harder than the first 3 which would be a shame because the lead actor they've choosen for spidey is an amazing actor and provided he has a good american accent he should at least hold the film together slightly

[ICE9RLN0]

If you read the books they really tried to include beast in every one of them some how some way. I don't like cat beast myself, and I don't think he is a better design than the ape like beast so I have to give you that one.

[JonBrahh]

Thats longer than 1 minute =P

[Smallavelle]

hii

[TheEpicTimeSuck]

Awesome.

[MovingPicProduction]

Look at these guys, being cool and stuffs

[DuhBulYew]

woah. GO FILMSTATE

[UndyingRedemption]

I still think the movie deserves an eff yea. Sure what you said was correct; but I let that all go when i saw the cameo.
