Anyone else think this was only mediocre ? - Mild spoilers!

Let me just say that if you know nothing about x-men history then this is a nice little action movie. You know the kind the one where you thought it was worth the money spent at the movies/video shop...... however that is pretty much the only good thing I have to say about this film. I mean the first two weren't gr8 but hey this one takes the cake!!!!!!. It tries to do too much with far too many story lines/characters and in the end doesn't actually succeed in doing any of what it sets out to do. New characters are introduced and then given little to zero screen time, which sucks,then other characters vital to the x-men mythology are simply removed from the film altogether, which in my view crushes any chance of a follow on, or spin off!!. Bryan's vision of the x-men was at least fairly close to following the ideas/fundamentals of the originals this one like mentioned b4 takes a giant dump on the lot!!! However the acting was of course gr8 from the cast as normal and had the story been different well i personally would have it enjoyed a whole lot more. Well enough of me, thanks for reading!!
