Better than Matrix Reloaded

Rating: 10/10 (18 May 2003)

I really liked the first X-Men movie because it was intelligent and explored issues such as discrimination and racism. It also had excellent performances from Hugh Jackman (Wolverine) and Ian McKellan (Magneto). And who else other than Patrick Stewart could play Prof. Xavier?
That said, I loved X2: X-Men United! It improved on all aspects of the first and threw in more characters! Nightcrawler is just too cool for words and Jean Grey's powers really start to expand! The movie has a well-written script, great action and special effects, and unique and interesting characters! This is a thoroughly enjoyable movie, so go watch it!
