The nuance and complexity of character that made the first two “X-Men” movies more compelling than the typically mindless summer blockbuster are gone in “X-Men: The Last Stand,” the third and allegedly final installment in the comic-inspired franchise.
| X-MEN: THE LAST STAND |
 Director: Brett Ratner Cast: Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Ian McKellen, Famke Janssen, Kelsey Grammer, Anna Paquin, Rebecca Romijn, James Marsden Rating: PG-13 for intense sequences of action violence, some sexual content and language Running time: 104 minutes |
