Director Brett Ratner steps into the role Bryan Singer played directing the 2 prior "X Men" films with an important notable achievement: mutant issues more boldly compare to primary cultural issues in the US: the abuse of power, personal responsibility and most impressively, supremacism. As usual, this 3rd "X Men" film is accomplished in the special effects area & takes the previous action levels up to the heights. The plot is fascinating since there is a mutant-friendly US President & a mutant cabinet member! The evil Magneto's (Sir Ian McKellen) most valuable camelion who can change into anyone, Mystique, is imprisoned, so the world is more peaceful. Unfortunately, Worthington Laboratories makes a serum that permanently destroyed the mutant X gene. Mutants are outraged & view this development as a form of genocide. Not all mutants agree since some want to remain mutants & some don't. Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and his school for mutants trust the government with some doubt. Magneto (McKellen) and his power-seeking mutants strongly oppose both Worhtington Labs & the US government. So they become an group of militants who plan to take over Worthington at Alcatraz Island. Worse yet, Dr. Jean Grey (Famke Janssen), appears to have reincarnated herself into the most dangerous mutant named The Phoenix. Reliably, Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Storm (Halle Berry), along with the student X-Men predicatably take on both evil forces. This is the most action packed & super high tech special effects version of the X-Men series. It's sensational~Read full review
