10/10

Rating: 10/10 (21 May 2003)

My hats off to the entire cast and crew of this film. It seems that more often than not sequels fail to reach the heights of the original. Jaws 2, Poltergeist 2, Speed 2, etc, etc,etc. Every now and then, however, the magic is captured again, witness The Empire Strikes Back, H.P. and the Chamber of Secrets, and
X2 has captured that magic and multiplied it tenfold. This is great action, great drama, great fun! I am surprised how much I enjoyed this movie. It exceeded my expectations at every level. This may not be Gladiator or Dances With Wolves, but it gets a 10 out of 10 in my book!
