Sadly Mediocre

Rating: 2/10 (25 May 2006)

First of all this movie had a lot to live up too. The first two X-men were quite good, if not progressively better, a tall bill to live up too.
The only worthwhile character in this entire movie was Juggernaut. Not a single other character had adequate screen time. A plethora of new characters introduced (Warren Worthington III a large part of the intro and then has two lines of script throughout the rest of the movie. What?), old characters completely missing without explanation, and many of the character that were apparently being set up for this movie did not make an appearance. Lest we forget Scott Summers, who finally begins to become a more heroic character, is eaten, that's right, eaten. Frasier made a good beast, incredible fight scene, only to be fowled up by a terrible line. Not to mention the fact that the script writers decided for Phoenix to be essentially on the sideline for the entire movie even when she's front and center.
The only reason this movie gets a 7 is because it has the other two to stand on. If you kick out those two legs it falls completely on its ass.
Go see the movie if only for (and here's the BIG spoiler), "Don't you know who I am? I'm the JUGGERNAUT bitch!"
