No Bryan Singer

Rating: 5/10 (26 May 2006)

Dropped the ball is a huge understatement. Brett Ratner not only dropped the ball but the crushed it completely. If I were producing this movie I would have given Bryan Singer whatever he wanted to make the final movie. Now there were some good parts, but most of them were because the cinematography and the special effects were amazing.
There was a chance to really show off the different mutants in this movie but we only really see the main characters that have been in the other two movies. In the trailers you are lead to believe that Angel plays a big part in the movie and he does all of the 15 minutes he is in it. The possibilities for this movie are so vast but after watching it all that I am is frustrated because it wasn't worth staying up for.
Instead of being in depth on a few really good plots and sticking with them this movie has a bunch of little plots that circle around one main plot. The whole movie should have been over in 30 minutes but these little plots, some of which were never finished, made the movie impersonal and just stupid.
