What the heck were they thinking!

Rating: 3/10 (26 May 2006)

It's difficult to screw up a movie trilogy like X-men, but they certainly did it. I didn't mind the lack of continuity in the first movie, and I tolerated it in the second movie, but this movie middle fingers the original story completely and not without a certain amount of glee I might add.
The first two movies were all about Wolverine and the third movie is AGAIN all about Wolverine. And they want to give him his own spin off movie. WHY? Rouge is still useless and never ends up using her powers correctly, which is sad because she was one of the most powerful characters whether the movie wanted to admit it or not.
They introduce more supporting characters in this movie than in the last two combined (keep in mind that this is suppose to be the FINAL movie in the trilogy).
Now I understand that in a final movie of a trilogy you can expect a death toll, but this movie's idea of closer is the senseless slaughter anyone who has the potential to reopen the series.
I can't say anymore without spoilers. Just be forewarned, If you are a fan of the comics, or even the animated series, this movie will depress you for a month.
