After Kingsman: The Secret Service director Matthew Vaughn left X-Men: The Last Stand because of its rushed production schedule, Fox decided to bring him back to direct this reboot of the series. Things worked well overall, though the introduction of James McAvoy as Professor X did draw some criticism. Michael Fassbender’s role as young Magneto went down very well but fans still missed the original actors. The film was nicely paced but without a compelling villain, the overall script suffered.

Not my favourite Xmen movie.

Jean Grey wasn't my favourite Xmen anyway while she is overshadowed by the greatness that is Wolverine and Professor X. But this movie didn't make me like her any more. Granted, it didn't make me dislike her more but I just thought her character wasn't fully realised within the film. Whether that was the actors fault or the director I don't know. Thank goodness it lies in a separate timeline to some of the other Xmen films because I will not be watching this again.
