Haven't seen it yet, but with all this talk about how bad it is, it's sort of encouraging me not to ever see it. (From here it looks like I'm going to rent it out later).
But, man, Punisher: War Zone. That was hilarious. I don't think some of the comedy was intentional, but I laughed.
I recommend seeing it a making up your own opinion. I thought it was terrible, but that's mostly because of how bad they trashed the source material. If you don't really care about the translation from comic to the big screen, then you may like it.
I just love it when hollywood makes up stuff to put in movies Silver Fox (Native American) is the sister of Emma Frost (white) yeah sure your right. I got one lets make Storm the sister of the thing or better yet apacalypse and darkside long lost cousins. lets make Gambit way older than scott summers and even more older than rouge. Got to love hollywood.
Definitely not the worst movie ever. If they had not ruined Deadpool at the end this would have been #2 on the list of X-men films. Even with the bad ending it's a close tie with X-men 3. Its more like the worst disappointment of a movie that had potential. Hopefully we will get ninjas aplenty in Wolverine 2 Hand Interrupted. I hear they are as common as trees in Japan.
I haven't seen the film but I was told by a few people that the CGI was really bad. It seems kind of unacceptable that with all the advances in computer graphics that you can't make it look good. I think X-Men is mos def a franchise in decline.
I feel that this movie was just terrible. It barely fits into the movie continuity and it just totally trashed the source material. The only things that were enjoyable was that they remembered their own continuity from X2 and Gambit. He had the better writing in this movie than has had in the comics recently.
I want my 5 dollars back.
But seriously, I'm sick of Fox screwing up the X-men. However, I'm sure they will keep doing it as they keep making 80 million on the opening weekend. For my part, I'm offically boycotting Fox superhero movies until the get them right. I urge everyone to do the same. We have to vote with our dollar here.
I know it's a little dramatic, but I think it's the only way get Fox to respect the characters. I mean, if they wanted to do their own thing with mutants and what not why don't they just do it and call it something else? (like Heroes)
I must admit I have never even read a X-Men/Wolverine comic so I am not familiar with the source material. But as a non informed movie goer I didn't think it was that bad. Was it great? Far from it, but it was not the worst movie I have ever seen. Hugh Jackman and Liev Schrieber (hope I spelled that last name right) were pretty good. I would have like to have seen more of Ryan Reynolds and Dominic Monaghan. And parts of the movie felt rushed. But overall I had fun watching it.
