Would of made a good pilot...

Rating: 7/10 (9 March 2006)

I saw this at the cinema on the day it opened in the UK. I was quite excited about an X Men movie and at the time I was left disappointed. I have since seen it again and find that its actually quite good. But it suffers from one major flaw, that luckily the sequel doesn't. And thats that it feels like a pilot for a TV show.
Still the action scenes are well done and everyone is cast great. One of Marvels best adaptations so far.
Lets just hope the third one lives up to the first 2. This is one of those rare times that a sequel is better. But you really need to see this one in order for the series to make sense and really its not a bad film.
