A twist of events, change in characters, many come, many go. It&#39;s a movie filled with a lotta changes in the Xmen! Among the 3 I have seen, this is the best Xmen so far. However, it still doesn&#39;t make an impact on me.

<b>Why I hated the movie!</b>
<ul>
	<li>The story was too fast.</li>
	<li>Unnecessary scenes between Rogue and the guy who freezes was a drag!</li>
	<li>The story wasn&#39;t told properly!</li>
</ul>
<b>Why I liked the movie!
</b>
<ul>
	<li>Wolverine was awesome - as I was discussing with Ratish, he should have been made the next James Bond!</li>
	<li>The special effects and the action sequences were short, but still good</li>
	<li>Halle Berry looked good ;-)!</li>
	<li>They still left a way to continue the movie :-)!</li>
	<li>&quot;Grow those back&quot; was a really funny dialogue!</li>
</ul>
<u>*****PLOT SPOILER WARNING*****</u>
One of the best things about the movie that left an impression on me was when Fire guy [God, I have to get to know these names :-D] tells that it was a good thing that the prof was killed. Magneto [phew finally] told him that he couldn&#39;t begin to comprehend what the prof had done for the mutants. It sorta gave me an idea as to how even close friends can have such different perspectives :-)! Their friendship was also hinted in the second movie when the prof and Magneto were playing chess in his confinement chamber.

It gave Magneto a heart, which was lacking in the first two movies. Inspite of the fact that we were talking about mutants, it gave a &quot;human&quot; touch to the movie!

IOW, 2.75 stars outta 5. The movie is worth watching, but it isn&#39;t phenomenal!

Brilliant performances by Wolverine, Storm, Prof, Juggernaut :-)!!
