I won't cast my vote until I see the final product but, going off the workprint, I'd rate it 2.5/5, and that's being generous.

devilshalo

I don't think there should be any reviews from the work print. Only the final product. I'm not going to d/l it and will reserve judgement when I see it in a theater.

OldBoy

isn't the wp the same cut as final? i agree that the theater will be the most honest format to make an informed decision.

Shannon Nutt

Yeah, apparantly some who have eyed the final cut have leaked that the only difference between the workprint and the final cut were the uncompleted effects. So the whole line we got about the workprint being a very rough cut would appear to have just been damage control by the studio.

Supermallet

I can safely say this movie is better than X3. But then again, almost any film would be better than X3.

islandclaws

I can think of at least half a dozen superhero films off the top of my head that are worse than X3.

- Daredevil
- Elektra
- Fantastic Four (all 3)
- Wolverine
- Superman IV

Whoa whoa whoa, they made a 3rd one?

CharlieK

Maybe 3 is counting the Roger Corman version?

But it wasn't officially released which makes me think we all need to check it out and start a review thread for it.

superdeluxe

No (Unless Fox is lying)

superdeluxe

Fox studio head says there are 10 additional minutes that were shot earlier in the year, that are not in the wp.

Whether he is lying, we will find out.

Artman

Shot yes... edited into the final movie? That's the big question....

OldBoy

well, the wp is 107 minutes, right? that is the same listing time at Fandango, imDb...

fumanstan

Shouldn't discussion about the workprint be stopped, given it's essentially an illegal download?

superdeluxe

I did not think discussion about illegal downloads are not allowed,i just thought discussion on obtaining them were.?

OldBoy

fu is right. i think the other thread is still good for that discussion. i noted the first post to try and just talk about preview or advanced screenings until friday.

The Bus

Did the workprint have the two scenes after the credits with

?

I've heard good buzz from people that have seen the final cut. Can't wait until Thursday.

The Bus

Does the "workprint" not have the scene with

Solid Snake

that spoiler really seems like a worthless clip..is he JUST doing that, The Bus?

Artman

5 for 5 positive so far on RT...lol! I would love it if this stayed fresh, just to stick it to those who claim this is the worst movie ever.

The Cow

I thought Liev did really good in this one. The character Kevin Durand did was horrible.

Movie was decent enough for me, 3/5

OldBoy

actually 6 for 6.

cranberries fan

Hey Bus that scene is in the "Working-Print".
