So the new X Men movie. What the fuck? I was entertained, but I can't help having complaints. Hugh Jackman did a whole lot of anguished screaming, which was very tiresome after awhile. And was it really that difficult to find a black guy that could actually act? The b.h. said they used that guy because he's in a band and they could get a "name" without paying for one. He was not good. At least, half the time he sucked. The other half he was fine. Could they not have used the money they spent on Dominic Monewhatsisname to get an actual actor in that role, rather than blowing it on a character with so few lines? Which is not to say that he wasn't great, mind you. But still. And is money really an issue at this point? Haven't these movies already made an assload of money?
Danny Huston channeled Brian Cox perfectly, Ryan Reynolds was funny, but there were too many jokes in general. Liv was great, Agent Zero guy was hit or miss, the exploding helicopter scene was so embarrassing that I laughed out loud in the theater. And adamantium fucking bullets? Really? Was that the best they could do?
I blame the director. Somebody call Bryan Singer, or cancel the rest of these movies, for the love of god.
