Worst of the three

Rating: 4/10 (7 June 2006)

I think the trailer to "Ghost Rider" was the best part of this movie. They could have done so much more with this movie. There was too much focus on quantity (all of the different mutants), with very little focus on quality (uhh...a story).
Spoilers:
Specific reasons that made this movie bad.
1. For some reason Nightcrawler isn't in this movie at all. He made X-men 2 a very entertaining movie. 2. Archangel was only in the movie so that he could fly by and save his own father from falling. Otherwise, he was just there for the awe factor. 3. The fact that Phoenix (Jean Grey) is really Dark Phoenix. 4. The way they killed off Cyclops at the beginning without any real knowledge that he is in fact dead. I was actually waiting for him to suddenly show up and stop Jean from doing what she was doing or something. 5. Pheonix destroys the body of Professor X. 6. The whole golden gate bridge to alcatraz thing. For some reason magneto seems a lot more powerful than before.
I left the movie theatre feeling empty. The people that are giving this movie a high rating (7 or higher) must either be young kids that find anything to do with superheros amazing, or they are people that like to go to no nonsense movies with a lot of action and absolutely little story. These are the type of people that loved 2 Fast 2 Furious and can't wait for Fast and the Furious 3 - Tokyo Drift.
I own the first two installments of the X-men franchise. Sorry, but I won't be owning this one.
