My vote for most f*%$ed up movie of 2006! Bar none!

Rating: 6/10 (7 June 2006)

Hahaha...where to start. Well lets just say that this is the best spoof I've seen of the comics and cartoons....ever. If you know the actors and their lifestyles and history, you'll get all the in jokes and appreciate it more.
I had to walk out a few times as the film was just getting far to annoying. It worked best at a faster pace where the editing was done very well. But some of the clichés were wearing thin, despite a great performance from Hugh Jackman, as I can relate to Logan/Wolverine quite a lot and I loved how sexy Famke Janssen was as Dr. Jean Grey/Phoenix.
I feel it is mirroring what is happening in the world today. I feel more women are becoming stronger and dominant over the weak minded men and exploiting that, as well as rising to power and authority where women are much needed to help sort out the state of the world. Jean is a perfect example of that.
The actions and special effects were second to none, very impressive...didn't spot any visual mistakes first time round.
I noticed Ian McKellen looking into the camera a few times heh and I'm sure there's more goofs out there to be found.
I did enjoy the dialogue for the most part...but the political side of things were what bored me to death.
All in all, a fun, but sometimes painful movie to sit through...but a mediocre experience and hence the mediocre score! PS: someone was smoking heroine behind me in the cinema...that was a wise move.
