terrible

Rating: 1/10 (27 May 2006)

my problems with the film: (1) character design:the villains were laughable. the porcupine fellow and the 2 new female recruits elicited muffled laughs from the audience i caught the film with; (2) script: the severe deviation from the comic plot line was unbearable. i mean, artistic license in the cinema is fine, but x3 does to the x-men what demi moore did to the scarlett letter. my point: why kill certain critical characters? to bring a level of gravitas to an already goofy film? i mean, this is a comic book adaptation, not Citizen Kane. (3) direction: nothing special here. it seems like the current director just rehashed the previous director's style (much like he did in "red dragon") w/o adding anything interesting. most of the action is silly and pedestrian. i was at least expecting some exciting good ole American movie violence. it might be better to spend your 10 bucks on singer's superman instead of this P.O.S.*
