A Fun CGI Orgy

Rating: 8/10 (13 September 2007)

I enjoyed this film, just looking at it for the striking visuals and special-effects, not really caring about the story, to be honest. I'm not into all the secular agenda that was promoted in all three of these X-Men movies, and the main "heroes," who were not all that likable. They were just watch to watch to help provide the eye candy.... plenty of wild stunts and visuals, especially in this computer-generated images orgy.
That's basically what it was, scene after scene of wild-looking characters with comic-book action scenes and supernatural feats by a variety of characters, all of whom had special powers. I think people who knew the previous movies forwards and backwards were hoping for more regarding the individual characters. Myself, I don't care, frankly, what happens to the wolf-man, the storm lady, boyfriends, girlfriends, kids and father--figures, mutants and humans. I just wondered if all these "mutants" would make the film fun to watch...and they did!
Seeing the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco come apart and be transported to Alcatraz was very cool and a highlight of this special-effects. As usual, the old men, played by Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen, were the best characters..
Was the film entertaining? Yes, as all three of the ones in the series were and, although not a big fan, I'm sorry to see it end. It was a fun ride.
