Nothing special...

Rating: 6/10 (22 November 2006)

I admit to not being a huge fan of the other X-Men films. I'd much prefer to watch Superman than these guys, but I when I had nothing else to watch, they were quite enjoyable.
So now, a few months later, I decided to check the third film out. I liked it and found it to be fairly entertaining, but nothing special. I can't say which of the three films are my favorite, but this one probably isn't it. It just seemed far to mediocre. It didn't take any risks and did nothing new for the series. Just another X-men film to add to the list.
The acting was fairly good. Pacing was good, as it kept me pretty much interested the entire time and I never felt like turning the film off. There were only a few places in this film that it felt sort of corny. But it was the same way with the other two films, so I expected it.
Overall, I'd much rather Singer direct this film, but I'd much rather him direct the next Superman, so hopefully he won't. :) I'd say rent it on DVD as I did, don't buy it unless you are a hardcore fan of the film.
It was nothing special. Just another action-hero movie.
