One word: Wow!

Rating: Null/10 (4 May 2003)

I just got back to my apartment after seeing this movie, and I'm still on a high from it. I think this sequel gets that rare distinction of being better than the first. Everything was right on target with this movie. Since there were fewer character introductions, the audience is treated with a much faster paced movie with more action and even more impressive special effects. I don't want to go into detail so as not to ruin anything for those who haven't seen the movie. On that note, I must say the trailers of this movie were excellent by virtue of the fact that there was plenty to see in the movie that was not in the trailers. Anyway, back to the actual movie... If you're a fan of the comics, you will really enjoy this movie. It has plenty of plot turns that remind you of why you love the comics so much. I'd like to keep this vague since one of my favorite things about X2 is that I had (purposely) known very little about it prior to seeing it. So go see it now. I mean it...NOW!
