In this film she does nothing at all. They completely waste her character. In the comics she is a very powerful mutant who has the ability of flight and super strength etc. These powers she got from completely absorbing those of another... carol danvers. But I really am a comic geek.

My wife enjoyed it. :)

The two Spiderman movies as well as Batman Begins still clinch it as far as \"Best... Superhero... Movies... EVAH.\" Other superhero movies don\'t even come close.

I liked X3 better than the previous two, but I was never a frothing X-Men fan, so I\'m not phased by all the changes to characters.

Didn\'t expect them to do any character development with an ensemble that big, so I wasn\'t disappointed by that. Lots of colourful characters were simply background... I mean, you\'re condensing years of comic-based storytelling into an hour and 40 minutes, so major tales are being completely lost.

Juggernaught, Beast, and Kitty Pryde were all just awesome. Disappointed with Mystique\'s role, and Rogue has been a whiney unimportant character through all three movies -- totally different than in the comics. Lots of points during the movie where I think the director said, \"You know what would help this scene? More mutants.\"

So short story, I totally enjoyed it despite a lot of things which could have been handled better. They really need to focus on just a handful of characters and let them drive the story and plot in X4.

Kitty was the girl that can run through walls, and when she touches others can do the same to others, like when she pulls juggernaught into the ground.

Also I guess they forget that Juggernaught was not ever a mutant, but rather the result of a magical item, oh well!

Also, if we are talking about the best superhero movies, I do think the original batman with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson was pretty darn good.

But they definately left the story for the return to life of killed characters, and the return of powers for those \"cured\". So I suppose future xmen movies won\'t have to be burdoned down by the flaws of this one.

I\'m rather fond of Mystery Men myself.

p.s. anyone remember some TV superhero series?
I thought the Flash series was a hoot, but they didn’t seem to get anywhere.
My favorite may have been Greatest American Hero though, but of course I was young and impressionable then.

Just padding away again.

Why, was she wearing spectacles? Did she have her hair up? Everyone knows that these two things make cute movie girls horiffically unattractive. Until halfway through the film, when some guy/girl convinces her to take off her spectacles and let her hair down.

Alright movie. But many things go against the comics and the animated series. I am a huge Juggernaut fan but this ruined him, I think. They should have had him with full body armor instead of bare chested. Agreed with whoever stated that he is not a mutant, it was really annoying to see him take off his helmet-thus no power- and still be huge.
Bah, can\'t believe Stan went along with this disappointment.

One question - I don\'t remember leech from the comics, I stopped reading them in the early 90\'s; doesn\'t his powers only effect mutants? Or at least people with ACTUAL powers?So his ability wouldn\'t work on The Puma, or Daredevil, or even Captain America, and therefore shouldn\'t work against the impenetrable force field generated around Juggernaut by the Ruby of Cytorak!

And another thing... Why the @#$%ing hell would MAGNETO use the Golden Gate bridge to reach the island?! There are probably a million easier things he could of done, including just flying everyone over by levitating the iron in their blood. And while he was holding the bridge up... WHY NOT JUST DROP IT ON THE FRIGGIN ISLAND!? I think that would have killled the kid, and everyone else for that matter without the stupid fight.

Cool points -
1) Wolverine\'s healing factor \'fixing\' him as fast as Jean was shredding him
2) Magneto defending Prof X and getting pissed at Pyro
3) Juggernaut\'s use of the word \'Biotch\', which was a nod to a very popular Internet video you can veiw here.
