X-Men : The Last Stand (2006)

The mutants in the X-Men world are facing a mandatory inoculation that will cure them of their mutations, thereby turning them back to average human beings. The mutation-suppressing cure is actually generated from another mutant who's own mutation disables the mutant genes in others.

This cure sets into motion the forces of good mutants (X-Men) vs. the bad mutants (Magneto and followers). Thrown into the mix is the apparent resurrection of Jean Grey, who sacrificed herself at the end of X-Men 2 to save her friends, and everything is different. This time, however, Jean is not what she appeared to be the last time we saw her. She is the strongest mutant on the planet and her powers now go unchecked.

The film is most likely the last in the X-Men series, as many of the main characters are impacted during the course of the film.


And, as a final song in the X-Men trilogy, the war that unfolds is much more violent and explicit than the previous X-Men outings. It is an intense ride and a satisfying conclusion to the series, for X-Men and action movie fans alike.
