Good job, Bryan Singer!

Rating: 9/10 (23 September 2015)

Development for the sequel to X-MEN came after the first film and production began immediately and that film lead to a series of superhero films being released and a sequel to the first film titled, X2: X-MEN UNITED.
David Hayter and Zak Penn wrote separate scripts, combining what they felt to be the best elements of both scripts into one screenplay.
Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris were eventually hired for rewrite work, changing characterizations of Beast, Angel and Lady Deathstrike. Sentinels and the Danger Room were set to appear before being deleted because of budget concerns.
Filming began in June 2002 and ended that November of the same year. Most of the filming took place at Vancouver Film Studios, the largest production facility outside of Los Angeles in North America. Production designer Guy Hendrix Dyas adapted similar designs by John Myhre from the previous film.
The idea to have Jean Grey sacrifice herself at the end and to be resurrected in a third installment was highly secretive. Singer did not tell Famke Janssen until midway through filming. The film was released on May 2nd, 2003 to critical praise by critics and fans, saying that this film is the best film in the X-Men series.
I loved this film and it was really amazing to see and it was really fantastic to look at these characters and it was really fantastic. In the sequel, Colonel William Stryker brainwashes and questions the imprisoned Magneto about Professor Xavier's mutant-locating machine, Cerebro. Stryker attacks the X-Mansion and brainwashes Xavier into locating every mutant on the planet to kill them. The X-Men must team up with the Brotherhood and prevent Stryker's worldwide genocide, but eventually, in the end, Jean Grey, a leader of the X-Men sacrifices herself to save her friends.
The story is more action-packed in this film and keeps me interested and makes me feel emotion for the characters and I am giving credit to Bryan Singer, Zak Penn, Michael Dougherty, Dan Harris and David Hayter and they all did really good job writing one heck of a sequel to the 2000 film and is really fantastic as hell.
The actors are still shining as they did in the previous film. Brian Cox plays Stryker and he is the villain that you just want to hate. Kelly Hu plays Lady Deathstrike and she does good in the screen time that she has, but also, I will say that Aaron Stanford as Pyro is amazing and he would play Pyro in the next film.
The CGI, action sequences and music are all really great and fantastic this time around and John Ottman's score is really music and my favorite action sequence is Wolverine and Deathstryke's fight scene is really amazing.
Overall, I love this film and it is one of the best superhero films and it is amazing to see this sequel every once in a while and it was fantastic.
9/10.
