Lame, lame, lame

Rating: 4/10 (31 May 2006)

In the olden days superhero movies wouldn't dare do _anything_ with the characters. Now they kill, kill, kill central characters and the net result is a big nothing. What Claremont and Byrne did in, what, 17 pages for 35 cents these losers can't equal for zillions.
Aside from comic fan issues, the film fails to really give anyone a reason to care.
*spoiler*
I did like the last little bits with Magneto and Xavier, esp that they rewarded ubergeeks who sit thru every last credit in a comic book movie.
