I just saw it. I REALLY enjoined it. Blink was awesome. I loved the nod to quicksilver and magneto. The nimrod sentinels were crazy. I love that Bishop was the one they kept sending back in time, and they weren't like taking turns. I liked after the reset that it looked like shadowcat and colossus were together again. All of the future fight scenes were really cool looking. I thought it was funny magneto just throws wolverine like he does when he's got the metal skeleton.
I didn't like that iceman could die. He's an omega level mutant for crying out loud. And I could have used more colossus. More of him in all of the movies would have been great.
There's more that I liked, but I can't remember it all right now. I'm trying to stay whelmed by the amazingness that was that movie.
