Best comic book turned movie I've seen!

Rating: 10/10 (15 July 2000)

The awesome special effects and many outstanding performances by the cast make for a thoroughly enjoyable movie. The action is enough to hold you on the edge, while the plot and character development keep you interested and in your seat. I was never much of a comic book reader, but I know this is very true to the original stories. In my mind, a good comic book provides a complete story, yet leaves enough open that the imagination can take over where the plot doesn't go. It also should leave enough unanswered questions that you can't wait for the next episode. X-men fulfilled my expectations and I look forward to perhaps a sequel. This is the best comic book turned movie that I have seen and I have also learned to appreciate this genre a lot more because of it.
