not as good as the 1st...

Rating: Null/10 (2 May 2003)

*mini-spoilers* I liked the film, just didn't love it. No, I am not the biggest X-Men fan and so I don't really know the inside stuff on all of the characters, and maybe that's where some of my ?'s come from. I do know these 'middle' movies of 3somes are tough, but this one really just didn't do anything. I thought Wolverine's past should have either been further explored or hardly mentioned. Why couldn't Iceman not just freeze the water & save Jean Gray? And where did Magneto & Mystique run off to @ the end? I know the purpose of this one was to leave a few questions, but I just thought that the majority of this movie was just some pretty good action thrown together a very loose plot. I'm a big fan of the 1st one and I'm sure I'll see the next one, which hopefully will be a little more smooth than this one...
