The X-Men. Protectors of peace. Jean Grey is one of the most beloved X-Men. But when a mission goes wrong, Jean is exposed to a dark and ancient power. This power has destroyed everything it comes in contact with, until her. Now that this power is becoming unstable, she releases it with destruction and anger. Now that this foreign power is consuming her, and the world is threatened, the X-Men have to face an important truth: they must save either the world, or their friend who threatens it.
X-Men comics were the best. The characters were cool and complex. The storylines, backstories and adventures could fuel 100 movies or more. This movie was like watching a Cliffs Notes version of a movie. Where is the character development? Where is the action? Where is the good feeling when the good guys win? It was all drama, depression, loss and tension. A person could make an X-Men movie practically verbatim from a few of the comic books and come out with a movie ten times better.
