Action from start to finish

Rating: 7/10 (3 June 2006)

This movie does not disappoint where action is concerned, also it has themes of tragedy, love and comedy. The film is basically about a discovery of a cure for mutants, with some mutants wanting this cure and others not, it starts a war between mutants and non-mutants. It's up to the X Men to stop this war. About half way through this film when the war begins it is non-stop action. I think even though it is exciting and dramatic it doesn't resemble a classic X Men film in my opinion. A lot of the classics you would expect such as many of the classic characters do not have much of a parts in this film, leaving many newer characters with bigger parts. The film is very much based on the idea of war and I'm my opinion has a good and unexpected story line. With action left right and centre, this film is definitely one to watch and will have you on your seat all the way. In my opinion this film is not a classic X Men film but still a really great film.
