I have all three of the X Men movies now and this was good, action packed ender to the trilogy. I hope they make another one!

Let me start by saying Bryan Singer made the biggest mistake of his life turning down X-Men 3 for Superman Returns (what a bomb). They got one of the biggest hack directors in Hollywood, Brett Ratner to finish off what could have been a stellar trilogy. Instead, we got a crappy "reinterpretation" of one of the best X-Men stories of all time, the dark Phoenix saga. Ratner strips this storyline of all emotion, even stripping Jean Grey/Phoenix of her fire powers (uh, isn't that the point of the entire character?) The last shot of X2 was of the Phoenix's fire emblem in the lake, which is completely abandoned in this travesty. The other two sticking points of this hack script are the off-screen death of Scott Summers/Cyclops WTF? and the death of Professor Xavier, the mainstay of this entire franchise. I sincerely hope the Wolverine and Magneto movies return some semblance of dignity to this franchise, which was Marvel's strongest, after what this asinine director did to this film.

I loved the first one.
The second one really didn't do much for me.
This one?
LOVED IT!!!
Fantastic acting from the entire cast.
Excellent direction, fx that were VERY impressive, an overall awesome movie.
I loved the ending, will this be the end of X - Men? Or as the ending suggests, will there be more?
As long as their as good as this one, I hope so.
If your new to X - Men, start with part one.
Part two is worth checking out, but part three is where everyone and everything really shines.
Highly recommended.

This movie had a lot of everything, and I loved it. I hope it's not really their Last Stand.
Briefly, we dealt with Death and Resurrection, concerning Jean Grey (Phoenix), Cyclops & Professor X.
We see some early insights into the power of Jean Grey. We see more insights into the romantic tensions between Jean Grey and Wolverine.
A good element of the story is the invention of a "cure" for the mutants. They will allegedly be allowed to choose whether or not they want the cure. But you just have to know the government is likely to take that choice away.
Magneto gathers his Evil Mutants to fight the "normal" people who have created the cure. This involves moving the Golden Gate bridge to allow them to move to Alcatraz Island.
Some of my favorite X-men return in this movie, and many new ones are introduced. One of my favorites is Kelsey Grammar (Frazer) as the Beast. It is such a great match.
The biggest problem with this movie is the abundance of characters, in the X-men and the Evil Mutants. So many characters get only a few moments to shine.
Again, I think this is a result of a valiant effort to cover the wide range of characters and changes over the past 40+ years of the X-men's history.
My biggest regret was that I didn't see this in a theater... I lost some of the dramatic impact, and missed the audience reaction.
But I can save the DVDs for a long time.

Buy this if you want to see what blue ray is capable of! Of course, you have to have an HD flat screen to watch this. The picture quality and sound was great. Everything was clear about the picture. You can see the clarity of Beast's paint on his face. Besides the blue ray part, story plot is a okay.
