Finally saw the flick last night. Woof! What a dog!
Terrible acting, forced love interests, deadpan directing.
Some of the effects were pretty, but they got repetitive. Famke Janssen, who played Jean Grey, and who I enjoy in movies was basically a back drop piece the whole film. Wolverine, Hugh Jackman, was painful in the role of inspiring drill sargeant. Kelsey Grammer, as Beast, was okay but half his dialogue was muffled. Vinnie Jones, who I also adore as an actor, was horrid as Juggernaut. The Brotherhood mutants were underdetailed and uninteresting.
And, they killed two of the seminal team members, making the possibility of any more X-Men movies remote.
All in all, a mutant powered sleeper.
Stumble it!
