Title: The last X-men movie?
Post by: Maverick on June 01, 2006, 07:44:30 AM
Has anyone seen it yet?? I'm surprised to see no comments on it. It seems to be making some serious money at the box office. What's your take on it?

I saw it and without any spoilers.....I didn't like it.

I actually agree with some of the critics this time. New characters you never get to know old ones who are different and a story that is weak as hell.

Not as many special effects as you would think. Some good ones but not enough for me to say it's a must see at the theater.

If you were into the comic books like I was in my youth you may get excited in some of the scenes when they hint at what could happen but you will be dissapointed when it never does.

I would give it a 2 out of 5 stars.


BTW my wife liked the first 2 but she fell asleep during this one.

I thought it was good, but it ended in ways that I didn't like.

I thought it paled in comparison to the first two.

Bryan Singer directed the first two. Brett Ratner directed this one.

It might be my favorite of the 3.  Everyone gets different things out of the films, of course.

It's not the last one, btw.  The 4th movie has just been approved.

BTW, for those who saw it, I hope you stayed until after the credits.  There's another scene that's rather surprising.  Those who saw it, don't spoil it here!q

Apparently, they could barely get Halle Barey for this past one.   Don't know if they can get her for another.

I thought it was OK, I liked #2 better.

Wont spoil it for others...but the whole storyline wasnt very complete to me.  I kinda sat there going "So, what about..?"

If you see it, be sure to sit thru to the end of the credits.

It was good, not great - it coulda been longer to give room for the previously mentioned character development.  Still worth the price of admission, however, if only for the action stuff and the Dominican Supermodel that leaves you wondering if one of the characters is a tranny.
