Throwing your money away, cent by cent...

Rating: 3/10 (1 May 2009)

Oh man. Um, It was a "film", I suppose. The acting is quite unsavory- Will.I.Am ... jeez. It was like watching a middle school play directed by Uwe Boll. If you're a fan, go ahead- see the movie. The action is very over the top, and the drama is so predictable, you'll be mouthing the words before the title even appears on screen. It is a shame- I enjoyed the X-Men movies, and this... well, this is something else. There are a lot of good names in this movie, and to see the "origins" is an interesting perspective. In an industry so saturated with canonical, money-making "films" that get shoved out the door, with nothing behind it but money grubbing producers, it is nice to see the backgrounds, and how these characters came to be. The final word? This is a summer movie. In the spring. Go figure.
