Harsh Review from Xmen Fan

Rating: Null/10 (27 May 2006)

I have been liking Xmen since the early 90's. There were a lot of simple things that made the movie awful.Cyclops was killed extremely early without any explanation. I would have rather seen the Xmen leader go out in the blaze of glory fighting other mutants. Phoenix is very annoying. She is just a "virus' to the movie and her plot is just despicable. Proffesor X, the Xmen teacher dies early as well, at the hand of the annoying phoenix, who has also killed Cyclops about 10 min. before. Mystique,arguably the best character the last 3 movies has seen is cured 30 min. into the movie. Juggaunaut is chasing a little girl, when in fact he should be fighting Colossus.(would have been great to see) Collussus is nowhere to be seen throughout the fight scenes. They chose extremely bad characters as well. There should have been characters like Mr. Sinister, Omega Red, Havok, Gambit, Nightcrawler, ArchAngel,and Cable. It was extremely poor plot(as there is no cure in the magazines) and horrible choice of characters and fight scenes.
