~Worth Watching~
Delicious
—Right from the start, the VFX, special effects, and editing pulled us inside Alex’s world to experience his fantasy.
Alex, a reserved man, was indeed like Magneto moving in the air different objects in his dark and intimidating room. Kinda made us wanna manipulate magnetic fields too 😅
—It was good that Magneto gave us an additional story on Alex which deepened the plot as we got to know about his background
—Strong determination is the theme that resonates well with this film. Aside from the supernatural aspect, the rule of determination applies: if you want it, you can get it as long as you put your mind, body, and soul into it.
Alex gave it his all, he lived and breathed the desire of having power over magnetic fields, then he got it
Bland
—As Magneto introduced us to Chapter 1 of the story, the scenario could have provided more details to look forward to in the next chapter.
Besides, centering the movie on vengeance was a little cliche as we’ve seen this many times before.
