This movie was a disappointment. Or should I say more specifically the plot. The actors did a great job, there are some good scenes. And various funny points. If you are or were a fan of the comic book, you probally won't like this film.
WARNING!!
SPOILERS AHEAD
First off I thought there were going to be sentinals and that they were going to show the danger room. They did for all of three minutes. Angel was only in about three scenes. Then they go off and kill Scott Summers(aka Cyclops), and the Phoenix is the one that kills him. No mention that she is Dark Phoenix. Instead the plot made the Phoenix into a split personality that she has had scince childhood. Then Mystique is "cured" and becomes human. Naturally Magneto turns his back on her. Then the Phoenix kills Professor Charles Xavier. Also in the movie they make Juggernaut a mutant, which he is not. Also towards the end Jean Grey is herself killed. And if that wasn't bad enought Rogue is also "cured"
END OF SPOILERS!!
And at the end of the movie you're left with a feeling of that something went very, very wrong along the writing of this script. You feel like I wasted my money on this. I actually heard some obvious fans at the end saying things like "I stayed up for this" Overall this movie is missing something, a better plot. I suggest saving you're money. |
