Does not follow comics storyline

Rating: 7/10 (4 June 2006)

OK...this may contain a little bit of spoiler, but I'll try to avoid the specifics. I do like the cast of characters....wish there were more xmen to do the final fight. Wish they had Gambit and Jubilee in there. Well, in terms of mutants being killed, this movie does not follow the original storyline at all. Much of the plot is made up and out of sequence from the original story.
This movie is filled with awesome special effects, but the plot is flawed....very flawed. There is so much potential with this plot, but they blew it. They underused some major characters (Angel), and overused some less significant characters (Pyro). I still like Jean Grey. She is a hottie and she is really powerful this time around. As I said, the special effects were awesome. That last scene where Wolverine was literally skinned alive was truly incredible. I wish they did a better job with the plot.
