to these posts that this movie "sucked if you are a comic book/xmen fan".
what are you all on? everything that happens in this movie has HAPPENED in a comic book. they didn't screw up the plot, like Brian singer did in the 1st 2, attempting to use drama and humanism as the driving forces for his climax. it was exactly how xmen has always been on paper or cartoon: fast paced action with some dialoguing.
Ratner did an incredible job with this movie, and portrayed the characters exactly how they should have been: like mutants. in the 1st 2 movies, their mutant powers as quasi-impressive, barely used, and lackluster. there is an explosion of identification with what these beings are truly capable of, in the eyes of Stan lee. you can go ahead and say that you don't like it because it doesn't run long and ragged like the 1st 2 xmen. but don't say u don't appreciate the movie because it doesn't relate to or follow comics, because trust me it does(ex story lines- Age of Apocalypse, wolverine(self titled), astonishing xmen, etc etc).
in short, this movie is the perfected vision xmen fans should be looking for. anyone who doesn't feel the same way would probably tell you cyclops is their favorite xmen.
