Lame ending to a trilogy

Rating: 6/10 (7 June 2006)

On the plus side - good special effects, some really stunning sequences and as always Hugh Jackman is great fun to watch.
Sadly, that's really all you get out of this movie. The script is horrible. No, really really horrible and without spoiling anything for anyone, the last line will make your jaw drop. How can one end a trilogy on such a very stupid line? It boggles the mind.
I also suspect that at least 45 minutes to an hour of plot were left on the editing room floor. Many characters are introduced and set up to be important and then left out of the major plot, making the story disjointed and abrupt. For anyone who is a fan of superhero movies and the like, the selective use of powers is highly frustrating. Characters just standing around when their power could fix a problem, only to give other characters more screen time. Pointless.
Oh wait - another good point about the trilogy is that it's over now.
