The new X-men was not too bad. It certainly beats Last Stand by a mile (or several). Though it has its fair share of logic fails and not-explained stuff.

Since you haven't seen it yet, I won't say much to avoid spoilers, but I guess I can savely say at least this one example without spoiling: Through flashbacks it is established that all the stuff that happened in the first three movies and the prequels happened in this continuity too (among others we see Jean evaporating Logan's skin and him killing her from Last Stand). And yet Professor X, who Phoenix completely disintegrated, is still somehow (or again?) around without a single word of explenation. That really bugged me.

I was quite impressed with Mystique/Raven's actress and how well she managed to convey her emotions even through the think make-up, particularly in the climax (@any perv who's reading this: Climax of the story... nothing sexual!) scene of the movie's end (you'll know what I mean when you see it).

Taking about sexual stuff: Except for one scene where Logan wakes up beside a naked (but completely covered by a blanket) woman, there is nothing sexual happening in this movie... I guess from that alone we would know that it wasn't directed by JJ Abrams :P

I quite enjoyed it.
