Nice! 22/24 fresh 7.2 Avg

 

[Razzle]

Godzilla has over 200 reviews, I imagine X-Men will get around the same, would love for it to stay at 90 or above

 

[BMM]

That would be quite the feat, but it would be nice.

Wow, a lot of love from someone who is very obviously not a comic book or comic book movie fan. Very nice.

Looks like Singer actually pulled this off and all will be forgiven... Until Apocalypse.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson is a real scene stealer as the silver-haired Quicksilver, whose talents lie in his ability to move with incredible speed.

You know I don't have a problem with lazy mistakes. But the thought of someone being paid actual money for being this incompetent really irritates me.

Looking good but films have dropped below 80% having been at 100% after about 50 reviews. If you add what we have so far, plus reviews that have come out and not been added to RT along with opinions of forum-goers who have already seen it though I'd be very surprised if there is any surprise negativity awaiting us. As for all being forgiven, Singer hasn't made a bad X-Men film yet for me, even when under a severe budget cutback (X1). And if this is good, it's good for life even if Apocalypse sucks, which it hopefully won't.

I've never been discontent with Singer. Not a Superman fan though, so SR wasn't so bad for me, just an OK movie. Same with Jack, an OK movie which was enough for me. I liked Valkyrie very much.

Well, it seems to me that lots of those films tend to have a meh rating even when the early RT score is high-- I think I remember ASM2 having a decent percentage early on while the rating was 6.2-ish. DOFP is still in the 7.3 range, and there are lots of 4/5s, so there's a good chance there won't a huge drop. We'll see, though. Never know.

When TASM2 had an early high rating the reviews were still meh. Not the case with DoFP.

I actually really liked Valkyrie too.

Hah, I've liked most Tom Cruise movies from those days to this date.

Same. My family has always gone to the cinemas together for 2 kinds of movies: for Marvel movies and for Tom Cruise movies.

Minority Report is in my Top 5 (X2, Incredibles, Spidey 2, The Avengers, Minority Report)

Yeah, that's true actually.

Wasn't thinking about TASM2 but how the hell did that get an early high rating? t:

 

[JP]

Cause the first few reviews, while mixed, were still "fresh."

Minority Report is in my Top 5 (X2, Incredibles, Spidey 2, The Avengers, Minority Report)

Sounds good. "Edge of tomorrow" is a sure blu-ray buy for me, probably won't see it in theaters, I rarely go because my little town doesn't have one.

My Top5 (today) could be a little more hipster, something like Alien, Apocalypse Now, Blade Runner, 2001 Space Odyssey and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Of course X2 is knocking on the door slightly under those.

To stay on topic, these reviews are very encouraging. Especially when I thought critics might have a little superhero fatique right now.

Especially when I thought critics might have a little superhero fatique right now.

Superhero fatigue is pretty much a myth, people will keep claiming it could happen every year. Bad to mediocre movies will always be what kills it for the genre though. More proof in that. Of course there will always be the times when opinons are mixed (MOS) but that's more film in general.

Alot of the critics nowadays are from geek sites or fan boys as well.

I definitely can have one at times. Many people I know do too. I think critics are people too, some of them could be just tired of them at time X. I didn't mean it's a universal fever affecting everyone's opinions, though. Just a little something in the back of one's mind eating and gnawing its way to glorious freedom!

About the geek site critics, don't care about those.

 

[def28]

About the geek site critics, don't care about those.

Really? Hitfix, Collider, Comingsoon, Joblo, Bleedingcool, Empire, aintitcool amognst many others are usually fans just like us and want to see the same things.

Many of these DOFP reviews are from a alot of sites like those right now. That tells me if they are all satisfied, many other fans will be too. Top critics don't really hold that many reviews compared to the amount of others.
