I dont know how many of you have seen it already but unless you are paying for matinee tickets i do not recommend this. We all go to see movies about super heroes for one thing (and that is one of the major reasons why we play EQ) and thats to see sparkles and magic and super shit going on all over the screen. This was seriously lacking in this movie. Plus too many plot holes and stupid movie mistakes (like "oh lets let the bad guy live, because we good guys are above that"... maybe im just evil but not the way i would handle it). It had its entertaining moments though. Oh yeah... gambit needed to be in it more and blow more stuff up, and more deadpool... because he is baller.

I was less than satisfied. They made the same mistakes in this movie as they did in the other movies: introducing characters as fan favorites, under-developing those characters and leaving the fans angry with how they were introduced in the film.
There are also many many plot issues that will not align with the first and second X-Men movies (mostly with Sabertooth and Stryker).
Of corse it was nice to see a shirtless Hugh Jackman, however!

it was a semi full frontal hugh jackman actually... semi because he hid his 3rd leg with one of his other legs.
I WANT MORE SUPER POWERS!!! and above all else, more gambit (they cut out so much of the new orleans filming i saw happening down here from the film). Oh yeah and Professor X looked effing CREEPY... kind of like that woman that had so much plastic surgery she looks like a lion (look up Jocelyn Wildenstein)

I loved the first X-men movie. Then the second one just sorta fell apart somewhere in the first 30 minutes. This newest one isn't on my to-see list. Star Trek, TF2 and maybe Harry Potter ftw!

So true, Em, so true..
Rotten Tomatoes called it, with a miserable 36%.
Oh well, Star Trek looks a LOT better, cant wait to see that next week!

Man, I was so pissed that they really screwed up Deadpool.
"The merc with a mouth" has no mouth? wtf.
I don't know which was worse, their job on DareDevil or their job on Deadpool.

sucked pretty bad if you ask me. hollywood can't keep from butchering any film it touches. they need to make a movie about making movies, and ruining them so bad. maybe it won't suck as much.

OMG, tell me you are joking. I rarely ever walk out of movies and if it wasn't for Mos I probably would have.
That movie was just horrible.
