  • Editorial Review:
    Experience the awesome power of The X-Men's epic, final battle. Join well-known mutant heroes and villains, and meet a cadre of all-new warriors -- including Angel, Beast, Juggernaut and Colossus -- in this thrilling, explosive adventure!

    After a controversial "cure" is discovered, mutants can choose to retain their superhuman abilities or give up their unique gifts and become "normal." When peaceful mutant leader Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) clashes with his militant counterpart, Magneto (Ian McKellen), the battle lines are drawn for the war to end all wars.

    Bursting with nonstop action, spectacular special effects and exclusive extras, X-MEN THE LAST STAND is a force of nature that "will blow you away!"

    Description of X-Men - The Last Stand (Widescreen Edition):
    X-Men: The Last Stand is the third installment in the popular superhero franchise, and it's an exciting one with a splash of fresh new characters. When a scientist named Warren Worthington II announces a "cure" for mutant powers, it raises an interesting philosophical question: is mutant power a disease that needs a cure, or is it a benefit that homo superior enjoys over "normal" human beings? No surprise that Magneto (Ian McKellen) and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants resist the idea that they need to be cured, and declare war on the human race. But it's a little tougher for the X-Men, led by Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Cyclops (James Marsden), and Storm (Halle Berry). If you're Rogue (Anna Paquin), for example, your power means you can't even touch your boyfriend, Iceman (Shawn Ashmore). To compound matters, someone previously thought dead has returned, and might be either friend or foe.

    With director Bryan Singer having moved on to Superman Returns, the franchise passes to the hands of Brett Ratner (Rush Hour), whose best work is done in the big action sequences such as a showdown between mutant armies. But it's difficult to manage the sheer volume of characters when adding longtime comic-book stalwarts such as Beast (Kelsey Grammer) and Angel (Ben Foster), and one character in particular deserved better than an off-screen dismissal. And fans of the original Dark Phoenix comic book story might be underwhelmed by the movie's resolution. X-Men: The Last Stand is presumably the last film in the series, but the ambiguous ending leaves possibilities open. Look for the two writers most responsible for making the X-Men who they were, Stan Lee and Chris Claremont, in early cameos. --David Horiuchi

    X-Men - The Last Stand (Widescreen Edition) Reviews:
    Great way to end trilogy 4 Star Review
    2009-11-10 - Saw movie last night... spectacular presentation. Fight scenes are amazing, especially final battle. Personally I liked it more than first two installments. Great plot in my opinion; excellent way to end trilogy. Saw in blu-ray... yummy.

    Do mutants really exist with strange powers? 3 Star Review
    2009-11-01 - They recently discovered a family of people whose genes keep them from having heart disease.
    People who bleed or have cleft palettes are well known from inbreeding as recessive genes.
    There are bald people, blue eyes and red hair and other strange variations
    in complexion and even size, but what is the closest to a beneficial mutation?
    That evolution hasn't stopped is well known, but it usually takes things like ice ages
    for the results to become apparent.
    A war between types of humans has been found in the archaeological record
    between Neanderthal and anatomically modern humans from about 40000 bc to 20000 bc.
    What made the superficially weaker humans able to survive when
    the stronger Neanderthals couldn't?
    The X-men comics have always attracted the social misfits and geeks among us
    who think that ordinary people mistreat them.
    A lot of the misfits end up in prison because they use violence as a means to fight back.
    Those misfits who only want to live peacefully and try to get along
    aren't always very successful.
    This movie about all out war might be the future when global warming
    makes pressure on our current population and forces those who have abilities
    to actually use them to survive.
    Until then the misfits or mutants try to blend in?
    So much for movie special effects and fantasy...



    Must Have!! 5 Star Review
    2009-10-22 - Without sounding like a blithering idiot, I will have to admit that I am a recent convert to the "X-Men" and really enjoyed being able to go back to the beginning of the series without any trouble. I truly plan on adding this to my Christmas list of things to give to friends and will be ordering more copies. Really need to have this box set if you're even going to remotely enjoy Wolverine.

    Better Than The First Two... 3 Star Review
    2009-10-19 - Although, lets be honest, it couldn't have been any worse now, could it?

    But let's not focus on the negative.

    Here's why it's a better film:

    - It has a better plot

    - It actually puts the mutants through some pain for a change (after two films of seeing them dance rings around humanity, they, like the characters from the truly awful The Complete Matrix Trilogy (The Matrix/ The Matrix Reloaded/ The Matrix Revolutions) [HD DVD], never really seemed to be in any great peril. Not so with this film. A weapon that can definitively rob them of their mutant natures levels the playing field).

    - It injects some moral ambiguity into the plot; you can tell that Ian McKellen (himself a legendary gay activist in the UK) relishes the chance to explore the concept of a cure for a condition (read 'orientation') that can mold one's identity whilst simultaneously making them a societal outcast in some quarters. Kudos to McKellen's performance - I actually found myself rooting for Magneto's brotherwood to prevail.


    Brett Ratner clearly feels less affection for the characters than Bryan Singer and in this case, that's no bad thing. I don't mind a director loving his characters as long he's not prepared to let that get in the way of the plot - something that Singer always did. I'll be honest, I wrote off the X-Men films after seeing the first two, but this one actually caused me to go out and hire X-Men Origins: Wolverine the night after I saw this on television.

    Also major props to Ellen Page. She really is a talented young thing.

    Its not the greatest film ever made, but it is a road-sign to better things.

    Now can we have some proper "Sentinels" in number four, please?

    Good play. 5 Star Review
    2009-09-14 - An unusual and interesting play. As I am about to take a playwriting workshop from Lee Blessing this was doudbly interesting. Good play for community theatre.
