The Last Stand......And A New Beginning

Rating: 6/10 (25 May 2006)

I just watched this movie today on its UK premier and even though a lot of us(fans) were moaning about how short the movie is, including me, but to tell you the truth, it was worth it. Brett Ratner has done a good job from start to finish. Many said there're too many characters and not enough character development, but do you really need them? My answer is, if you want character development then read the comics, because the film is not about Juggernaut or Callisto or any of the other mutants. The trilogy circulates around the fight between Magneto and his comrades against Xavier and his X-men, everything that come between are just there to add flavour. I don't want to get into the story because you all know it, But I will say this, you won't be disappointed if you liked the first 2. Yes you might be shocked to see some of the mutants Lost but if you read the comics, then you would know that Time travelling Mutants exist!(If you know what I mean ^_^) In my opinion this movie is great fun to watch and a good ending for the Trilogy...9/10
