As the third installment of the X-Men series opens, the world has entered a relatively peaceful period for mutants. There's a mutant-tolerant president of the United States, a blue furry mutant named Beast (Kelsey Grammer) heading up the Department of Mutant Affairs, and Magneto's shape-shifting femme fatale, Mystique, has been captured. The tranquility is shattered by two events. Worthington Laboratories, using a powerful mutant boy, develops a serum that eliminates the mutant X gene permanently. This so-called cure quickly divides the mutant community; Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and his school are willing to give the government the benefit of the doubt, but Magneto (Ian McKellen) and his mutant Brotherhood see the serum as a vile threat to their way of life. They form an army of mutants and march on the fortified Worthington Laboratory located on Alcatraz Island. A much more dire threat appears in the form of the resurrected super-mutant Jean Grey (Famke Janssen), who has succumbed to her cataclysmic Id identity known as The Phoenix. To face these menaces Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Storm (Halle Berry) and the younger members of the X-Men must leap into action, but they must do so without the guidance of Professor Xavier--in a showdown with the powers of The Phoenix, his mind-control powers proved insufficient. To his credit, new X-Men director Brett Ratner emulates the style and tone struck by Bryan Singer (director of the two previous films) by combining outrageous special effects and hyperkinetic action sequences with earnest soul-searching and mutant issues that are clearly meant to parallel the political hot-button topics of tolerance, prejudice, power, and responsibility.

    X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

    Pros: Story, casting, action scene

    Cons: Few

    Surprise, surprise. X-Men: The Last Stand, the third big-screen convocation of mutant shape shifters, weather changers, ice makers, energy suckers, healers and telepaths from Marvel Comics, has shifted the shape of the franchise from pretty good, if ...uninspired, to terrifically entertaining.

    Pros: Excellent end to the first three films

    Cons: I wanted to know more about Xavier's fate

    Any afficianado of the X-Men Comics would be surprised at the amount of ground covered by these three films. After briefly introducing the major players, we are suddenly catapulted more than 100 issues to the emergence of Phoenix, hinted at near the ...end of the second film, but there are no problems here for the newbies in the audience. The films fit together like hand and glove in a climax that is as dazzling as is promised. True to form, we can all breathe easy at the fates of the characters--after all, no one really dies in the comics. I would say much the same for this final film. There are materials here that could see any number of films, most likely the extra footage that sets up a solo film for Wolverine. Good fun and great special effects, with something for the oldest purist, or the newest filmgoer. Well worth the price of admission. B. Read more Less
