Just saw the movie...thought it was good. Yes it could have been better for all the reasons that have been listed but I thought it succeeded as a decent comic book film. Another 25 minutes or 30 minutes would have done wonders for the plot. We could have had more Angel, Rogue's cure on-screen rather then off-screen. I will see it again and buy the dvd when it is made available. I would have liked to have the confrontation between Bobby and Pyro extended. That boy needs a much bigger butt whipping than the one he got! My favorite line was Kitty's dickhead comment. Guess she spends too much free time on message boards. I stayed until the credits had rolled and saw the final scene. I do think that was a stupid place to have it though. It should have been the last scene before the credits rolled. My take on it? Onslaught! Next movie the X-Men will be confronting Xavier instead of Jean. I also think Scott's off camera death means he may not actually be dead. Maybe Jean stuck him in the lake in her place? Who knows?
