Not As Good As First, But Still Excellent

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2014)

Whilst not a patch on the first movie, this was still very entertaining.
Plot In A Paragraph: The X-Men are scattered when the Mutant Academy is attacked by military forces. They must team up with an old foe to save the day.
Halle Berry is given more to do here than in the first movie, but sadly James Marsden suffers and he isn't given as much to do as one would hope. Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are as awesome as you'd expect, Rebecca Romijn and Famke Jannsen both deserve special mention too, as does Alan Cumming. But once again the star of the show is Hugh Jackman. He has a natural charm, that few movie stars have. He is a good looking man with a great physique and he has charisma in spades. Oh and he happens to be one hell of an actor too. I'll be very surprised if their is not an Oscar in this mans future.
