Super!

Rating: 8/10 (3 January 2002)

Since Tim Burton left the franchise and Batmans archenemy the 'Schumacher' took over there haven't been any comic book adaptations that were worth while. Enter X-Men. I had no intention to see it, I was afraid it would nerd up my time, but the word of mouth finally got to me. To my surprise I have to admit that X-Men is quite good. There could have been a bit more action and bit more explanation for the first-timers, but generally it worked very well. Ian McKellen stands out as always, but Hugh Jackman shows much promise as Wolverine. This is the best comic adaptation of the 00s, or at least until Spiderman comes out.
Most Memorable Movie Moment:
Wolverine: "It's me" Cyclops: "Prove it" Wolverine: "You're a dick" Cyclops: "OK"
