I Loved It

Rating: 8/10 (13 June 2006)

Over all I think we are looking at a great Comic Book Movie. It may have lacked a story element that could match X-Men and X2, yet when it came to Intensity and Action "The Last Stand" was Fantastic.
Most of the characters where portrayed well, and possessed their charm. Effects were beautiful. The fights were great. And I loved it when Bobby took on his Ice form. The movie seemed to keep me emotionally connected, I really cared about what happened to everyone. Some may complain that Professor X and Scott died too early. But if anything that made it more believable, and made me feel like I was reading one of the comics again. It always seemed as if characters were missing, and only a select few were involved in the conflict.
But don't get me wrong it had some flaws too. Juggernaut(Ugh!)... need I say more? I felt Kitty Pride was never properly introduced, and just sort of forced into the story. Rogue seemed to be overshadowed by the rest of the film, and some what irrelevant. And many Geeks such as me may feel the movies veer off too far from the comics.
In the end I think it was a great conclusion to the X-Men Trilogy.
