Another Batman and Robin worthy sequel.

Rating: 1/10 (26 May 2006)

Not as bad as bat-nipples...but this is still the "Street Fighter" of X-men movies. I swear this is just too much "awful" for one movie....
..Just breath....::breathes deeply::
..Ok...
Let me just state that there were really just three things wrong with this movie...two REALLY BROAD things: -First, lack of continuity with the source material(be it the movies or the comics). In super hero movies, the source material should be at least respected. This movie took a crap on it. I'm sorry but killing Cyclops and Xavier in the first 25 minutes was NOT a good move. To the X-men of the comic universe, these are probably the two most important characters EVER to the storyline. I don't feel like going into why because if you're not familiar with the X-men comic you won't care and if you are then why do I have to explain it. This movie was a poorly cut hodge-podge of random 2 dimensional characters with the same names and powers as their comic book counterparts...but w/ little more in common. Just an example, the juggernaut...although I did enjoy his one-liner, is not a 6 ft British guy for comic relief. And even worse, even Xavier's character was completely off. -Second, even as a stand alone, the script was garbage. The script writer's need to be shot. I hate them...and I hope they read this. I know one of the two guys also helped write X2, but he clearly was the bad one. The script was 2 dimensional, the characters were like shadows of their former selves in the previous films.... You know what? I'm afraid I just can't do justice to how bad this was. At best this was a B film that tried to make up for the loss of character depth with flashy explosions. The idiots thought that by killing off important characters and trying to stick to this whole "mutant cure" thing that people would be touched emotionally. They wanted to get the audience riveted by taking out characters they had come to like. It failed. If you're going to make a cruddy comic based movie...make sure you don't peeve the fans off. And if you don't care about the fans..at least try and tell a decent story. In conclusion, you guys who made this suck and I hope bad things happen to you.
