Sacrilege (*spoilers*)

Rating: 1/10 (20 May 2014)

This movie has some very cool parts and great effects. (of course it does!) My extreme distaste for this movie lies not in the action, the acting, the costumes or effects. It lies in the SCRIPT! *spoilers begin* I believe that the studio had absolutely NO RIGHT to kill off major characters and completely destroy the character of Jean Grey. Yes, she became temporarily bad in the comics and fight against the x-men but she did NOT murder Professor X and Cyclops! Outrageous!
I completely understand that movie adaptations have to be a bit different than their book or comic book sources. No argument there.
But I do believe that a movie studio and director have a responsibility to show some respect for the spirit of the source material. Murdering off beloved characters at the hands of another beloved character and leaving it that way was crossing a line. The director didn't even bother to try to explain why she kills cyclops as soon as she meets him.
