Arkaan

This was an entertaining film, but one that could have been better. While it didn't seem short, if they added some character development for some of the characters who just take up screen time. And either develop the perfunctory love triangle, or get rid of it.

The story itself is rather simple as well. People hate mutants, and want to pass a bill forcing them to register themselves. The mutants are divided into two camps. The first group believe in peaceful coexistence, while the second believe that people must be destroyed.

The performances range, but that is as a result of their parts. Berry, Marsden, Jansen, and Romain-Stamos are limited by their roles, but still give a solid go of it. Anna Paquin as Rogue, while doesn't disappoint, isn't incredible. Rogue is not a teenager, so her character isn't completely 'true'. It also limits the flirtatious relationship between her and Wolverine, played by Hugh Jackman. The film belongs to him. He's great to watch.

Fun, while not incredible (though it should have been nominated for an oscar in the Sound and make-up categories).
