This movie is why Brett Ratner should stop.

Rating: 1/10 (26 May 2006)

Holy hell. It's been absolute ages since I've been this disappointed in a movie. X3 should make anyone who has watched or read X-men feel very, very sad inside.
Characters are shallow and uninspiring, the storyline seems tacked on and far too coincidental at times. Twists are few and very, very weak. Once you're actually watching it if you can forget that it has anything to do with X-men (in much the same way as Catwoman had nothing to do with Selena Kyle), it's quite an enjoyable action movie.
The only happiness I can get from this experience is that since Ratner directed this movie he hasn't gotten his dirty mitts on Superman.
I won't say any more for fear of including spoilers. Go out and see the movie. It's really, really good right up until the end of the Superman trailer.
