Very good introduction to the X-men!

Rating: 9/10 (28 August 2000)

I expected a lot from this movie and I was NOT disappointed after I have seen it. I think it is very good that they didn't try to summarize everything of the cartoons/comics in one movie, which they did in for example the movie "Spawn" (also a movie of which I had huge expectations of, but that movie turned out to be a huge disappointment). I know which characters has which super powers, so I was afraid that I had a lot of explaining to do to my girlfriend (who doesn't know the X-men at all) during the movie, but I didn't have to say a word. Well done!!! They clearly made an open ending and I can't wait for the X-men II with probally more characters and less explaining. Lets hope and pray that they'll keep the same cast as they have now, they all did a excellent job in the movie. This is just an introduction, people, which (to my opinion) couldn't have done better, so: makers of the movie "The X-men", please don't let me down by ruining it in the sequel, you have a good start. Score: 9/10
