I didn’t grow up in the X-Men generation, so I approach the X-Men, its characters, story and iterations (the comics, cartoons, spin-offs and the several versions of each) as something I’ve missed, albeit am unwilling to pursue since, well, let’s face it, I’ve outgrown it.
Ok, clarification. I have learned to appreciate other genres, hence need to disperse my attention on a more general plane. Yes, that sounds right. At least better than saying I’m old.
Buuut anyway. Oh yeah, the movie.
Up to the time I decided to write this, I couldn’t figure out whether I liked this movie. It was lunchtime, I was famished, and I chose to watch it while munching on a Burger King Junior Whopper, regular fries and Coke, so maybe I was distracted.
Or maybe it’s because it’s a movie with animated talking animals, and I didn’t take it seriously.
Or maybe after watching some of the more excellent versions of similarly themed movies, I had such high expectations.
Whatever.
This is rather late as it’s been four days since I watched the movie at Gateway Cubao, but suffice to say I’ve been writing this post in my head ever since and I’m fairly itching to get it all out, so here it is, albeit I may have lost some of my thoughts since then.
At any rate here they are bulletpoint style. WARNING: If you haven’t seen the movie, there are spoilers!
