does not live up to comic books

Rating: Null/10 (3 June 2001)

X-men has been one of the biggest comics to ever hit the super heroe industry. To make a movie about it great idea, though to ruin it, bad idea. The movie takes the story of the X-men and totally destroys it. If a movie is based upon some other story it should follow that story not make up little other things because of money complications. And if you can't live up to that story because of money then don't make the movie. Also they got to remember that they're making movies here, not comics. I don't know how many x-men movies they plan to make, but they're starting off pretty slow and it could lead to many sequels. So why not just make the a little longer but also include some other enemies, and other good guys and make some good fight scenes. Not like the crap, horribly coreographed fight scenes in this movie. Also the wolverine and sabretooth fight at the end should have been 10 times cooler.
