{netflix} x-men 3: the last stand (2006)

When scientists develop a miracle drug to treat unwanted mutations, Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and his heroic band of X-Men must battle a group of mutants known as the Brotherhood, led by Xavier's former ally (Ian McKellen). Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Famke Janssen, Anna Paquin, Rebecca Romijn and James Marsden reprise their roles from the first two films, with the addition of new recruits Kelsey Grammer and Ben Foster.

ifreethought.com rating: **** Not quite as good as the first two, but still great. Kelsey Grammer was a great addition. Regulars Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Halle Berry, and Famke Janssen still play their roles flawlessly. The addition of Ben Foster was nice as well albeit in a smaller role than it should have been. Would have been cool if they had examined that character and his relationship with his father more. "The cure" was a nice touch and of couse a question that all homosexuals have asked themselves at some time or another.
