A Classic That Holds Up

Rating: 9/10 (8 March 2018)

Everything about this film is done perfectly. Hugh Jackman surprisingly is great as Wolverine, despite this being his "odd one out" performance, and Patrick Stewart is especially memorable as Proffesor X. I also liked the casting decisions of James Marsden as Cyclops and Halle Berry as Storm, but I wasn't a huge fan of how their characters were somewhat underdeveloped.
So basically, the plot revolves around Magneto (Sir Ian McKellen) trying to hunt down Wolverine for some unknown reason, even though SPOILER ALERT: He actually wants Rogue. The biggest problem I have with the plot is that it doesn't make sense to me why Magneto wants Rogue because all she can do is make someone have a heart attack, meanwhile Wolverine has a full skeleton made of adamantium.
