Just went and saw X-men 3 and it was excellent! However, I do have many problems with it. First of all, you could so tell that Bryan Singer (director of the first two) didn't direct this one. The pace was too fast, the visuals weren't as good and there was only one or two spots where I really liked the cinematography. Second, character usage and development. There was an addition of new characters in this one but if you didn't know them from the comics, etc., then you wouldn't really know who they were. Not only that, but they barely had a role or point to the movie. Colossus had maybe 4 lines in the movie, wasn't russian (like he's supposed to be) and had no significant role to the movie. Multiple Man was pointless as well. Then there's the characters we already know, some of them have no point being in the movie either. Rogue, barely in the movie, has no real significance to anything, why bother with her. Mystique, after the first 15 minutes it was like they couldn't figure what else to do with her. Don't get me wrong this movie was entertaining, definitely a good follow up to the last two but it just seemed to cram to much for no reason. OH, and if you haven't seen it yet and are planning to go, stay til after the credits. There is a nice little easter egg. It's only about 10 seconds long but it's worth it. If you have seen it and didn't see the easter egg, message me and i'll tell you about it. Anywho that's my review on that.
