X-Men 2

B-

The only things Rattner got totally right were the fight scenes and the opening sequence.

The beginning and endings of the movie...totally STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN. The next movie will be X-MEN 4: THE HUNT FOR XAVIER. When Xavier died, he should have yelled over to Wolverine: "Remember!"

Good stuff:
Beast (I thought Grammer did a typical Grammer job playing a typical Grammer character and the makeup on him was plausible, and of course "Oh my stars and garters!" I was the only one in the theater who laughed audibly at that line. Goddamn, I am old)
Angel
The fights
The opening sequence
The cure basically being tempoary (really, I thought the Cure was a cool idea)

Weak stuff:
Scott's death (no one thinks to ask back at the Masion, "Oh, where is Scott by the way?" Scott died only because Marsden was unavailable for most of the shooting.
Magneto getting the cure.
Jean's dual personality
Anna Paquin's lack of screentime (she should be pissed)
No Alan Cumming
Jean's death (should have been by suicide)

It had some good moments, and I prefer it over the first installment.

I see no reason why there can't be a 4th movie. If nothing else, Hollywood is great for milking ideas until they're dead husks.

Paige(Husk) will be in the 4th movie!
