Then it all came crashing down with 2006’s The Last Stand. All the fan favourites returned and the cast remains a highlight of this film, but everything else was such a mess. It didn’t help that Bryan Singer left the franchise and Fox brought in Brett Ratner, hardly renowned for his understated filming style. The Jean Grey side-plot was muddled, the special effects were poor and this was such a disservice to the fans who had stayed with the franchise for six years. To its credit however, the action was staged well and there were some very exciting set pieces that saved it from total oblivion. Unfortunately, Vinnie Jones as the Juggernaut was the final nail in this film’s coffin.

First film directed by Elio Petri, which at first may seem simple and superficial, but after watching it I kept thinking and thinking about it and ended up being referred to The Usual Suspects (Bryan Singer, 1995), because at no time do we have an account of the impartially, all flashback scenes are narrated by Marcello Mastroianni's character. There are no absolute truths in the film. The direction is very competent and the performance of Mastroianni, as always, perfect. In the end there are some exaggerations and they miss exploring some aspects, but I really liked the movie. Nowadays there would be a good discussion about him being featured on the cover of a newspaper as a murderer while he was a suspect, something quite common in journalism to this day.
