Product Description
WHEN A CURE IS FOUND TO TREAT MUTATIONS, LINES ARE DRAWN AMONGST THE X-MEN, LED BY PROFESSOR CHARLES XAVIER, & THE BROTHERHOOD, A BAND OF POWERFUL MUTANTS ORGANIZED UNDER XAVIER'S FORMER ALLY, MAGNETO.
Amazon.com
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 Beyond the Film

Rebecca Johnson (Seminole, FL USA)
I love love love these movies. I had the first two on vhs, the third on dvd. It's so convenient to have all three on dvd, in one set.

I enjoyed watching X Men and wanted to own all three. It is great to be able to buy the box set. I cannot wait to have an X Men marathon including Wolverine.

Mutantkind divided against itself February 3, 2010
Chrijeff (Scranton, PA)
As this movie opens, things are looking up for mutants. A new President (Josef Sommer) is so sympathetic to their concerns that he has created a Department of Mutant Affairs, helmed by one of their own--former X-Man Dr. Hank "Beast" McCoy (Kelsey Grammar). At Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, the mansion has been repaired after the commando incursion of X2 - X-Men United (Two-Disc Widescreen Edition), and students of all sizes scurry through the halls at class-change time. Even Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) seems to have settled in as part of the team, although in Danger Room simulations he still has a tendency to bend the rules. But Scott Summers (James Marsden) is so consumed by grief over the death of Jean Grey (Famke Janssen) that he's abdicated his position as leader, forcing Storm (Halle Berry) to step into the slot--a job she doesn't want. And Magneto (Ian McKellen) remains at large and a matter of deep concern to the government. Then Jean is unexpectedly resurrected from the depths of Alkali Lake. But Prof. Xavier (Patrick Stewart) fears what the strain of saving herself may have done to her Class 5 mutant powers. Meanwhile, Warren Worthington II (Michael Murphy), head of a great pharmaceutical company, has announced the creation of a vaccine that can suppress--permanently--all mutant ability. Despite assurances that taking it will be entirely voluntary, Magneto, that survivor of the Holocaust, fears what its existence may mean and begins assembling a mutant army called "The Brotherhood." In the end, it's five Xavier students against a mass of raging outlaw mutants with a weapon that may mean the end of the world.
This splendid climax to the X-Men trilogy is worth every cent of its cost, from the sensitive portrayals of inner conflict suffered by Wolverine, Xavier, Storm, and Jean to the thunderous John Powell score (X-Men: The Last Stand (Original Motion Picture)) to the introduction of imaginative new mutant characters (including Ben Foster as Worthington's son/namesake, Angel, with his gorgeous 20-foot wingspan) to the stunning special effects. (I'm only disappointed that Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler didn't make a return appearance.) Note: If you didn't see it in the theater, DO NOT stop the player until after the credits have rolled. You'll see a short scene that hints of more to come--and if it's as good as this, I can't wait!
