Is this really "The Last Stand"

I went to see the third installment of the X-Men movie series last night. I was entertained by it but was disappointed at some plot twists and when they occurred in the movie (in particular, the emergence of Dark Phoenix). Once again we're introduced to new varieties of mutants and I thought the Kelsey Grammar character was a hoot. Unfortunately, Brett Ratner again excels at movie action at the sacrifice of dialog and more thorough plot development. Three out of five stars.

And don't let the title fool you: more X-Men movies to come. Specifically, it says in IMDB that Ian McKellen will be doing a movie based on his Magneto character.
