X-Men III

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

When do we get to vote Halle Barry off the Island. She is really starting to get on my neck as a great indian philospher once said. I'm glad her whining finally paid off and she gets to be in every other scene. But every time you see her, all you can think is wow look at that acting. Grrr

I don't know if they missed Bryan Singer or not. Probably. Brett Ratner did an okay job on the effects and giant action sequences but it lacked any real story at it's heart. Did I mention they needed to lose Halle?

A lot of the small mutant moments were really funny. They did some cool flaying skin sequences, probably the best sequences of the film. But they need to cut down on people involved in the story. Every character needs his subplot or maybe not. I think Kelsey Grammar did a great job as the beast. But I think they need to get back to cranky wovlerine. Maybe in the proposed spin off. Tell Ian to tone it down. He's not in the Davinci Code right now.

I won't say it was a horrible diservice to the franchise but you wish for all the money the spent, they could have dropped a few dimes on the story. Good premise, lousy follow through.
