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
