Awsome

Rating: 10/10 (8 May 2003)

X-men is my favourite comic book of all time. I'm addicted to it so when they decided to make a movie I was slightly skeptical, comics to film have rarely made a great transition. However I watched X-men and was blown away by it. It was spectacular I loved every moment of it. When I discovered they were making a sequel I thought, surely they were pushing their luck but I gave it a chance. I came out of the cinema turned to my X-men obsessed friend and said 'Its restored my faith in sequels' it was bigger and twice as good as the first one. All the actors are suberb especially Patrick Stewart who seems born to play Professor X. Ian Mckellan made an even bigger impact in this movie and Hugh Jackman WAS Wolverine. I loved the newcomers Alan Cummings was great as Nightcrawler and brought credibility to the role. Although X-Men is completely fictional I couldn't help but feel the entire time watching it that everybody was a real live person. I've gone to see it twice and will definetly return to see it again. All I can say is bring on number 3.
