X-Men are alive and well

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2000)

Bryan Singer knows what he is doing and what he is doing is creating an excellent franchise. This film leaves you wanting more and more and is just amazing. Hugh Jackman may have only been big "down under" before this but now he is king of the world. His portrayal of Wolverine was perfect and he showed he is a fine actor and a bad man. Mardsen did a fine job and really gave Cyclops that preppy leader with the hot babe I always envisioned. Famke is hot and a great actress who created a hotter than imagined Jean Grey. Patrick Stewart was excellent and proved he was Prof X. I had my doubts about Mr. McKellan but he proved me wrong and I'm glad. Halle struggled as Storm but could easily tweak her role for the sequel. No one did a bad job except the score composer. While it didn't hurt, it didn't help.
X-Men is awesome and the sequel is coming. Prepare for the next generation of adventure to get even better
10/10 This is a dream realized for X-men fans and a great film for non comic fans
