A Brilliant Adaptation

Rating: 8/10 (3 May 2009)

While being not-so-true to its original literary source (as well as historical and geographical facts), this movie is thoroughly enjoyable and is an excellent adaptation of 35 years worth of comic mythology compiled by a myriad of artists (some more confused and with less respect to the overall cohesiveness of the story universe than others).
Fans of the comic will have to keep an opened mind to fully enjoy the brilliance of this new adapted-for-movie X-Men universe. This movie is a perfect complement to the original trilogy.
A great action movie with a well thought-out script, fast paced editing, story and character development, great soundtrack, and visual effects. Acting is quite decent too.
