I am brett ratner, destroyer of worlds - X-Men: The Last Stand Reviews
TheWife and I just returned from seeing X-Men 3: The Last Stand. Why is it called "The Last Stand"? Because God willing, there will never be another piece of foam crap like this unleashed on the unsuspecting public.
The writer of this piece of drivel must have, at some point, thought to himself "I am pretty good at pissing off my friends, and most of my family. How can I use that skill on the masses? I know, I'll take a cultural icon and pull a Highlander 2 on it!"
Seriously, watching this movie was like watching baby Seals being clubbed, but only after the clubbers took 18 bucks off of each of them.
The movie started off with promise, then the three minute mark hit and it suddenly took a belly flop off of Niagra Falls. There were scenes in this movie that you could hear the whole audience groan together, like some large and rusty door being slowly opened.
My question is this. Why does Brett Ratner hate audiences. There was no point to this film other than making legions of fans crazy mad. The only thing that could have made this worse if there was some kind of sexual trist between Wolverine and The Beast, filmed in a clinical manner with play by play explanations as to what was going on.
This movie is the "Showgirls" of comic book movies. This makes "Catwoman" seem Oscar candidate worthy. This script is probably why Bryan Singer jumped ship and went to 'Superman'.
