X-Men: The Last Stand Reviews

I thought it was very good, but not as good as X2. The mutant-on-mutant fighting was cool, but it wasn't as character-driven as the first two movies were. It didn't have as much heart.

I enjoyed some things about the movie but there were others that I didn't. Scott was killed at the beggining of the movie, he never died in the comic and was part of the pheonix storyline. Halle Berry got too big of a part, I guess that's why they killed off Scott. The phoenix didn't look like the phoenix and played a small part in the movie. Nightclawer disappears, leaving them with six x-men for their final fight, most of which are children. The new charators had little to no storyline. The main thing about this movie was the cure, phoenix and the other storylines were treated as if they were not important. I did enjoy the movie, I just wanted to speak my mind about what I didn't like.

Definitely worth a watch if you have seen the previous two. The action is there and the special effects are great. Some of the new characters are cool and some are not. For example, the Juggernaught was cool and the porcupine guy isn't. Sometimes the movie feels rushed and doesn't flow very well, but it is an action flick based on a comic. What more can one expect?

I give this 7/10 because of the sometimes rushed plot and blatant product placement. It was nice to see the Juggernaught internet video get a nod.
