Nothing done right

Rating: 4/10 (14 May 2007)

This film by far has been the most disappointing comic book movie to date. The script and Brett Ratner's directing is utterly horrendous. First problem was giving Halle Berry a bigger part because she decided to complain enough times. So they kill Cyclops... well there goes any future X-Men movies including Cable one of the cooler mutants. The Phoenix was done completely wrong when compared to the comic books. Angel played no important role in this film and was just there for a "wow" factor. Colossus being one of the original members of the X-Men in the comics still has a very limited part in the film. He doesn't even fight Juggernaut which would have been a sensible battle. No instead Juggernaut fights Kitty Pride whom gets more time in the film than most of the other X-Men. I do give kudos for the line "I'm the Juggernaut bitch". At least the film producers listened to that much of the fans. Multiple Man also did absolutely nothing in the film and could have played a much bigger part. The script had so many pun jokes that I was banging my head against the wall of the theater I couldn't not take it anymore. The only thing done right in this film was Beast. Kelsey Grahmar was a perfect pick for the part and his character was presented correctly. Overall a 4/10 for all the reasons listed above.
