With director Bryan Singer having moved on to Superman Returns, the franchise passes to the hands of Brett Ratner (Rush Hour), whose best work is done in the big action sequences such as a showdown between mutant armies. But it's difficult to manage the sheer volume of characters when adding longtime comic-book stalwarts such as Beast (Kelsey Grammer) and Angel (Ben Foster), and one character in particular deserved better than an off-screen dismissal. And fans of the original Dark Phoenix comic book story might be underwhelmed by the movie's resolution. X-Men: The Last Stand is presumably the last film in the series, but the ambiguous ending leaves possibilities open. Look for the two writers most responsible for making the X-Men who they were, Stan Lee and Chris Claremont, in early cameos. --David Horiuchi

Customer Reviews of X-Men - The Last Stand (Widescreen Edition)
doesn't live up to the first two this movie is a great example of one of my biggest gripes about sequels. a sequel will never be as good as the original if the original director doesn't do it himself. that was the problem with this movie, the original director went off and did superman returns, (which sucked by the way) and another lame director took over this movie. i believe this movie could have been truly spectacular if more attention was paid to story and character development. <

>a few of the most important characters were killed off, like Stewart's character Xavier. and it seems like they simply cheated us by bringing back Jean Grey with only a sentence or two explanation that feigns credibility to the original story. like "jean grey was always the most powerful mutant ever, we just didn't mention it to you throughtout the first two movies." a very cheap way to bring her back. also cyclops was killed of right away, for seemingly no reason other than to get rid of him. mystique was also given this kind of lousy treatment. this new director totally screwed up this sequel. <

>overall the director relyed too much on the special effects (which were pretty good all things considering) and not enough on the characters and an involving storyline. the thing that made the first two xmen movies so great was because they had a great story and strongly driven characters, and then the special effects were like the icing on the cake. just like you can't have a good cake with just the icing, you can't expect a movie to be great if the story and characters have no substance. <

>the second xmen movie should have been the last in my opinion. the special effects aren't bad, nothing spectacular. but the story doesn't even compare to the first two's depth and believablilty. but if you want to finish off you xmen collection, go ahead and buy it.
X-Men - The Last Stand
Who could have seen the movie in theaters and not wanted to have it on DVD? A fitting and excellent conclusion to the trilogy, leaving one with the hope that it will not be the last.
Excellent PQ
Great contrast and colors, not the sharpest blu-ray, but one of the best.
