if you enjoy the xmen comics, don't see this movie.

Rating: 2/10 (26 May 2006)

the action was good, don't get me wrong, but i don't understand how Stan lee would license this movie. it butchered his story line and completely put an end to any further movies. By killing off the people they do and rushing through 10 years of comics in a worthless hour and a half movie, they ruin the marvel that is the xmen legacy. I nearly walked out of this movie, as a true fan of the comics, this movie just made me angry. How can you change the way Phoenix is created? how can you change the way that the prof dies? other then the fact that the guy played cyclops wanted out, how can you kill him so easily? the makers of this film didn't use the characters they already developed in the last two movies, such as nightcrawler. Big disappointment. And they didn't really use angel at all. he was there and his character could have been sweet, but they didn't use him at all. They pretty much ruined all that was good about xmen and unless you didn't really read the comics, or you just don't care and want to see some action then don't see this.
