Went to see X-Men 3 tonight.
First we were met by protestors outside the cinema. It was a little disappointing to find they were protesting about a different movie. I mean mutants... only thy Lord shall create and all that. We were told that the Lord is waiting for us to come back to him. If that's the case, we're in worse trouble than I though. But I digress...
It was an enjoyable movie, but there were too many corny clichés in the dialogue. Lines like "that was my last cigar" weren't too offensive (and that was in the opening couple of minutes), but there were lines in there that had me thinking "Oh my god, he didn't just say that, did he?"
The basic back story is that a "cure" for the mutant condition is found. This sets Magneto off as he believes that it will be used on mutants against their will, so he starts building a mutant army to destroy the cure.
The basic plot is excellent, the special effects are stunning, the fight sequences flow brilliantly. The only thing that lets it down is poor dialigue, that seems to get worse as the movie goes on.
Still, as a movie reviewer I heard on the radio said, "it's worth a bucket of pop corn."
And when you go to the cinema, make sure you stay to the end of the final credits.
