What just happened?????

Rating: 1/10 (29 May 2006)

When i heard that there was going to be a new director for this third installment of the X-men series, i became a little nervous. But then after seeing this movie, there is no way any director could have made this good. The story went so far away from the original storyline that it became almost funny to watch. *Spoiler* When i saw Cyclops, Professor Xavior, and Jean Grey get killed, i litterly started laughing. If they are going to kill off the three most important characters, why not kill everyone and just get it over with? I was shaking my head while watching Magnetto and Rouge lose their powers. Whoever decided to write a screenplay that deviated from one of the best story lines in comic history, should be shot. The dialog sucked. The only thing i liked about this movie was that the included Beast and Angel. Kelsey Grammar did an amazing job of bringing Beast to life. I say that i liked Angel being in the story, i didn't say that i liked the way they used him. He is one of the original X-men, and could have been one of the coolest, but they blew it and decided that he was a worthless character. I absolutely hated this movie. Everything about it, including the very end when you see Xavior come back in the body of someone else.. What the hell??????? If you are going to kill him, just kill him. Don't turn it into some crappy Matrix style plot twist
