Best comicbook film EVER! (No Spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (4 May 2003)

It's a rarity for a sequel to be as good as the original. It's even rarer for it to surpass its predecessor. And that's exactly what X2 does and then some. X2 is way better than X-Men (2000) in every regard. The plot, the direction, the acting, the characters and their depth, the 'cool' factor (way HIGH), and the FX are all superb.
X2 is definitely the best and most ambitious comicbook based film ever. It also is one heck of a Sci-Fi/action/thriller. Returning director Bryan Singer has taken several character and not only made them unique in their special attributes but also in their motivations, their depth, and their personalities. Several new characters are introduced and the returning characters are given even more shining moments.
As you can tell, I haven't described even the most cursory plot details and that's because I want every first time viewer to enjoy this movie like I did without having anything spoiled for me.
All in all, X2 is now THE peak which future comicbook based films would have to reach. Rating: 10/10
