It's a fun one

Rating: 7/10 (16 January 2006)

All in all, it's a good flick, whether you were a fan of the comic books or never read them.
A few lame lines aside, it's pretty well put together and the characters are likable, including the evil doers. Effects are solid as well.
It really comes down to whether you like the genera of "Comic Book" films or not. Now, there have been some particularly crap-o-licious ones... this isn't one of them. It's pretty obvious that Marvel Comics were heavily involved with the crafting of the X-Men movies.
So, this and something like "Sin City" may turn you around about the genera of movies. Hey, it's a helluva a lot better than pretty much ANY movie that is based on a damned video game!
