The worst end possible for the xmen series!

Rating: 3/10 (25 September 2006)

Right where do i start, i can say with a great deal of confidence how awful this film really is. If Singer hadn't left for Superman, this film could have been better than it actually is. OK. The fact that Halle Berry whined like an old mare about wanting Storm to have a bigger role in the film is what brought the film down to it's demise. The whole film seemed to centre more on her and Wolverine, rather than the Phoenix saga which Singer had clearly set up from the first two films. The fact that I am a huge fan of the series from comics to the TV show, every fan should know that the Phoenix is one mega kick ass mutant, so what the hell was Ratner doing by giving her a side part and standing about as Magneto's bloody aide????????? Phoenix had one good scene in the film with her confrontation with Xavier. But this was still not as good as it could have been. The film did have it's plus points, the scene with Pyro and Iceman is one helluva fight that everyone should watch! It derives away so much from the content from comics, with characters such as Rogue, Cyclops and Xavier, they had small pitiful roles which Ratner should be ashamed of. They are awesome characters and not used to the films advantage. Oh I must say Kelsey Grammar was a welcome addition to the cast as Beast! Thats one other plus to the film that Beast finally made his entrance! I do hope to GOD that this film is re-made and made the way which it should be. Scrap Storm all together I say, that will teach Halle Berry a lesson!!!!
