Saw X-Men 3 on Wednesday with Dave. I went in with the odd expectation, as Sarah had been all hyped about it before she went to see it. As far as sequels in general are concerned, they usually deteriorate with increasing ordinals. I must admit, I thought the first X-Men film was better than the second, so there were a few parameters to consider.

I must admit to being pleasantly surprised. There were plenty of special effects, with lots of action and yet there was still an appreciable storyline. They weren’t afraid to present you with the unexpected, whilst the story was true to the good vs evil formula, with the odd interesting twist.

On a par with the first of the trilogy, with a good conclusion. Worth seeing.
