X2 was amazing

Rating: Null/10 (1 May 2004)

I oved the first X-Men so much, and I was so excited when I found out there was a second one. I never was a fan of the originalc omic book series, though I watched X-Men: Evolutions on Cartoon Network before I saw X-Men. Hugh Jackman did an excillent job as Wolverine in the first movie and I was very pleased with his job in the second. I don't think they could have picked a better actor to play the part. I was also so excited when I first saw Nightcrawler. He has always been my favorite. He's just so cute and his tail is incredible. Acording to my friend, Kyle, who is a huge X-Men fan, they did a remarkable job with the special affects for Nightcrawler. The sulfer and smoke that clouds around him when he "poofs" is so realalistic. This movie is awesome. So many people hear that's its based on a comic book and think "Oh this is going to suck, I never read the comics. I'm not going to have idea what's going on." or think "Oh this is going to be just another stupid action film." They are both WRONG!! This movie is incredible. You don't need to be a fan of the comic books, I wasn't. And as for the "stupid action film" part that's way off. Its not jsut "We're the good guys, we must defeat the bad guys!!" There's great jokes, love, action, adventure, politics, and even a huge message about prejudices. I loved both these movies and I can't wait to see how they do the third!
