X-Men 3

My son and I saw this today, and enjoyed it.  We’ve seen both the earlier X Men movies and they’re all good fun.

Clearly this was a wrap-up of the series - can’t see another movie after it being made.  Ian McKellen more than anyone makes the movie, as Magneto, which he plays over the top.  I would have liked to see more of Rebecca Romjin, but she was written out of the story fairly early in the piece.

While we were there, my daughter saw “Take the Lead” - her advice, don’t bother, it was really bad.

Another thing.  The previews included “Poseidon” and “The Omen”.  Hollywood producers, why not try some new ideas instead of making crap remakes of movies that were crap in the first place?  Sad lack of imagination, and creative risk taking if you ask me.
