X-men Disappointing (warning spoiler)

Rating: 5/10 (4 October 2006)

I was very excited to see the phoenix at the end of the second film anticipating the third movie would be freaking great!. i waited until it came out on DVD because i never got the chance to watch it in the theater, and am very happy i waited. Surprise surprise another comic book based film that doesn't go by the books. First off i hate it when the movie people have these crazy ideas that they need to change everything. People that grew up with the x-men comic and the X-men cartoon series (love it) know exactly what i am talking about. They will take something original and turn it into crap! also i hate rouge in the movie!she is not at all the rouge that i loved to see in the cartoons. she is very weak and looks and sounds nothing like what she should. instead of a tough southern bell we get this little innocent looking girl who is nothing but a whinny mutant. her power in the movie should be the power to whine which she does very well. Then they think its OK to kill all of the best x-men in the movie ............What the hell! i don't remember that happening i remember something similar but the ones that died got caught up in some telekinesis limbo thing. but then they come back. Lets pray when they make another one (which looks unlikely) they will bring back the rest of the team. I say that instead of the Americans working on the films like this we should have the Japanese direct the films. they seem to keep the originality concept into play in most of there films that come from books, video games and series. ITs sad to watch something that you anticipate will be good and then at the end feel unfulfilled. I think i will just go out and buy the cartoon series on DVD and not get sucked into the movies. I will not pay money for them to mess up a movie and then make another one that sucks.
