Terrible...

Rating: 1/10 (26 May 2006)

This movie was a HUGE disappointment. I had high hopes for this one, since the first two were incredibly - and unexpectedly, at least for me - good. This one should've been excellent, if it wasn't for one "minor" detail: no Bryan Singer. The guy who gave us good dialogue, believable characters in a fantasy context, and most of all, lots of fun, is gone. We're left with lots of terribly underdeveloped characters, lots of idiotic action scenes and that not-so-nice feeling of having lost some precious minutes that can never be replaced. I know it's just another blockbuster, but the previous ones were so much more... Who knows, maybe it's good that it ended like this - this movie is so bad that I seriously doubt that it'll make enough money for them to even think about making a fourth one. If you liked X-Men and X2, avoid this wreck of a movie at all costs. I'm really sorry I didn't. (If you decide that you do want to watch it anyway, it'll probably help if you keep your expectations on a very low level - and I mean "Plan 9 From Outer Space" low.)
