Can't get a better deal, Just wish there was a pack that included xmen origins as well

4/5 X-Men aims to please and does!

It was an ambitious undertaking to do justice to this fantastical comic book franchise from the fertile mind of Stan Lee and company but I think all things considered,the producers got it pretty spot on.
Patrick Stewart is Prof.Xavier who runs a school for mutants.He has the power of super mind control and through his Cerebro chamber he can reach both humans and mutants at will,anywhere in e world.His counterpart and the running villan through all of these films is Magneto played by Ian McKellan.While Xavier prefers the non-violent solution to living with humans,Magneto prefers the path of direct confrontation and overthrow,leading to world domination(what villain doesn't?).
Each movie has its' strengths and weaknesses of course but I think the series goes from strongest to weakest in the order they were made.The first two were directed by Brian Singer and the first movie is a slam-bam winner all the way.The introduction of characters and side plots never interfere with the telling of the story.X2 slows down slightly as we get intro'd to some new characters and lose one in the end.Overall it's not as satisfying as the first but still good.The last was helmed by Brett Ratner.While some blame must go to the director for its' comparative lacklustre execution,Last Stand is just too ambitious,i.e it tried to do too much.There seems to be more plots,sub-plots,back stories and character introductions than the previous two put together.This slows the pace down as all strings endeavour to be tied and every "T" dotted,while the action has to stop or slow down to do so.
What doesn't vary throughout all these movies however are the special effects.There is no shortage of action in any of these films and the special effects are,overall,quite seemless and very effective and engaging.No complaints whatsoever.
Technically the DVDs have all been transferred beautifully and all are in their widescreen glories.Disc one has a myriad of special features such as so called "branching" scenes(extra scenes filmed but not included originally),a Charlie Rose interview,the Hugh Jackman screen test,a featurette,story boards,art gallery,animatronics,the trailer and some TV spots(phew!).Disc two has only a commentary track(which I found very odd)and it is to be found in,of all places,the "languages" section ! Disc three has director commentary,producer commentary,numerous deleted scenes and three alternate endings.
The DVD cases themselves are the newer cheaper kind snap cases that alot of the "big boys" are using now.Instead of the inner case being solid plastic,one side has a recycle sign cut into it and the side the disc sits in is spoke like,radiating out from the spindle.The spaces existing on both sides reveal the back side of the outer descriptive paper cover.
Of course there will be X-men-iacs who will find countless faults with these movies as far as characterizations and continuity from the long running comic book series.But for most casual readers and uninitiated(to X-men)Sci-Fi/action lovers,I think you will be quite pleased with the overall result produced here.Creator Stan Lee himself had his hand in this series all the way so some modicum of accuracy to his "child" had to have been extant.
As a sidebar Fox has produced a Wolverine back story recently but it remains to be seen if anymore movies will be forthcoming from them re the X-Men,as the franchise rights will revert back to the hands of its' new owners,The Disney Corp.in a few years.Marvel also has some property deals going with Paramount and Sony which will also revert back eventually.It's amazing just how much product Disney will ultimately control with its'Marvel acquistion.Who would have thought that a little comic book company called Marvel would grow that big and be bought in the future for an approximate cool $4 BILLION(!).The mind does boggle.
This set is definitely worth owning,not only as the generally good films they are,but if only for its' price as it would cost you much more to but them individually.All the special features included on them sperately are all here in this set.So if you have been hedging whether to buy I would urge you to drop your nickel now when the price is right and get yourself a VERY entertaining trio of great Sci-Fi flicks courtesy of comic writer supremo,Stan Lee.

4/5 Good for the price I payed

This came at a very reasonabe price for what it was, and it shipped quickly. I chose standard shipping and had it within the week. The only flaws I noticed- the box was a little worn around the edges, and disk 1 tends to freeze at one point in the film. I cleaned the disk and the problem appears to be resolved. All in all, very satisfied.

5/5 Loved these movies!!

I bought these movies for my husbands birthday. I thought that they were just going to be cartoon characters. Wow was I wrong. I loved these movies!

4/5 Great way to end trilogy
  by Brian (FL, USA)
Saw movie last night... spectacular presentation. Fight scenes are amazing, especially final battle. Personally I liked it more than first two installments. Great plot in my opinion; excellent way to end trilogy. Saw in blu-ray... yummy.
