X-Men - a real COMICBOOK feat

Rating: 7/10 (10 July 2014)

X-Men is an spectacular cinematic achievement! The way comic book movies were meant to be seen, with respect and a surrendering belief to the comic book world. A belief is natural for real fans of the comic universe. X-Men is a realistic take on comic book heroes. The story of the X-Men is ultimately one of the best reasons to even film a movie in the first place of any kind. X-Men addresses major relevant societal issues entirely through, just as the original comics, in a simple to understand and positive way. Bryan Singer and company did wonderful work to create X-Men the movie. The actors and actresses are X-cellent! Hugh Jackman is the Wolverine, and nobody, that is, nobody could have done better. Hugh is feral and warmhearted as Logan. Patrick Stewart epitomizes Charles Xavier, Professor X. Patrick Stewart the mastermind. Ian McKellan is too, ideal as Magneto displaying a real understanding and connection to the character. Getting Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan for these roles is a perfect world come true. Halle Berry does a great job of acting support from the side and not becoming too much of the focal point in her portrayal as Storm. If I'm not noticing Halle then the movie really holds up, believe me. Anna Paquin is such a naturally very gifted actress and she fits the role of Rogue beautifully. Famke Janssen really personifies X-Men Jean Grey acting as one of the noticeably more interesting characters of the viewing. Rebecca Romijn is really the perfect Mystique and she certainly has the perfect body for Mystique. And if anybody ever needed an actor to play Cyclops, we could only hope James Mardsen was available. Marsden is very solid, very good. The other two stars, Ray Park and Tyler Mane, are as good as any playing as Toad and Sabretooth. X-Men has a smartly shown story developing sharply from scene to scene. Smart action with very good special effects. A great visual experience. It has an impressive score. The mutants abilities and their mutant powers are truly awesome. Thank you, Brian Synger and company. Thanks to the great casting of the cast and to the cast themselves. And, of course, a true special thanks to Stan Lee the creator. I love the X-Men. It is one of my most interesting and favorite things to think about and imagine and adore, that is, I love the X-Meeeen! X-Men is great and very appreciated by the fans. X2, the sequel, is a really special film and even better than the first, much better.
