by dragonfire88  in Movies,  - Top 50, May 01 '04
Pros: It's the X-Men. Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart.
Cons: Some characters weren't in the movie at all.
When I was a child, I watched several cartoons that featured superheroes from comic books. I really enjoyed those cartoons. I have seen several movies that have superheroes in them and I have enjoyed those as well. I enjoy those movies. I was a bit ...

by AliventiAsylum in Movies, - Top 50, Dec 21 '00
Pros: great special effects & writing, no previous knowledge of the comic needed
Cons: very violent, not for young children, though they may ask to see it
I was a sci-fi geekette in school; knew all of the details of every Star Trek episode, saw the first Star Wars 7 times, and watched Dr. Who religiously. One aspect of sci-fi that I never got into was the comic books. So while they guys I hung around ...

Pros: Intelligent action flick, good performances, effects
Cons: Some uninteresting characters
The mutants are coming! The mutants are coming!! Well actually… they’re already here. And the normal humans are getting a bit nervous about them… X-Men opens with a political debate in which Senator Kelly (Bruce Davidson) argues for the ...

Pros: exciting presentation, great casting for the most part, interesting story, successful film
Cons: some characters not quite "fleshed" out enough
After years of success in the world of comic books, and then the applauded efforts of the Saturday morning cartoon, X-Men finally made it to the big screen in 2000. The selection of Singer to direct the film came as a surprise to many fans, ...

by elvisdo in Movies, - Top 500, Aug 08 '00
Pros: great action, Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, none of the villains died
Cons: still not too sure about Halle Berry as Storm
I liked it. There I said it. I liked X-Men: the Movie. Being a comic book fan for over 20 years (oh wow, I can't believe it's been that long), I know the entire history of the X-Men, and they've been around even longer than I have. So it's hard ...

by George_Chabot in Movies, - Top 50, Jul 22 '00
Pros: Good character development, casting, story, moral
Cons: None I can think of
X-Men (2000)
The film opens with a faded color view of crowds of people being herded through a barbed wire enclosure under the nose of German machineguns, so you realize it is WWII. Then you see the stars sewn on the clothes and you realize...

by pmills1210 in Movies, - Top 500, Aug 18 '00
Pros: Acting, action sequences
Cons: Don't get to know characters, reminiscent of recent "Batman" films
I'm not familiar with the X-Men comics. Maybe I should familiarize myself with some of their illustrated adventures, for the "X-Men" movie doesn't really tell the tale of any of them. It just shows what they do, and it fails to explain how they...

by Goatius in Movies, , Sep 16 '00
Pros: Fine character work, good acting from Jackman, Stewart, McKellen
Cons: A number of wasted characters, simple plot
Marvel's legendary superheroes sprung memorably to life this summer in one of the few blockbusters that succeeded more than it failed this year. It's taken years and years to get this film rolling, having to conquer no less a roadblock than the comic's...

by Pandemonium, , Jul 14 '08
Pros: Excellent casting and acting, special effects, action, and good story.
Cons: Not everyone used enough, wanted a couple of more action scenes, soundtrack.
I have always been an X-men fan. I am not one that reads every comic book or watched everything on TV that had been put out before this movie. However I have read and seen enough of each to really enjoy the concept and the under-line message ...

by thevoid99 - Top 100, Mar 19 '06
Pros: Singer's Direction, The Central Story, Look, Special Effects, & Some of the Cast, notably Jackman.
Cons: A Somewhat Weak Plot, Badly Written Characters, & Mediocre Performances.
The comic book from Marvel about a group of mutants who become superheroes known as X-Men arrived to the comic book world from the mind of Marvel's comic book main man Stan Lee (who also created Spider-Man) and Jack Kirby in 1963. The X-Men comic book ...

Cons: Halle Berry, James Marsden.
The labor problems are continuing at the 'VickiWear' plant in Paramus, New Jersey. The Indonesian seamstresses remain restless, despite an increase in their wages to $2.15 an hour and Mr. Carducci, the manager, will not return my phonecalls. I have...

Pros: Cool effects & cast.
Cons: Leaves you hanging for part 2.
I will admit I have been an X-Men fan since they started the Saturday morning cartoon version. {Tells you how old I am...} Well when the movie came out my daughter and I were in the line for the first show here in Paso Robles Ca. We were so anxious,...

by talyseon, - Top 1000, Apr 06 '09
Pros: A good solid action movie featuring everyone's favorite mutant outcasts. True to the comic's spirit.
Cons: A lot had to be cut or changed to fit the media of film.
X-Men (2000) Directed by Brian Singer.Mutation: it is the key to our evolution. It has enabled us to evolve from a single-celled organism into the dominant species on the planet. This process is slow and normally taking thousands and ...

Pros: It's the X-men!
Cons: Missing some vital characters!
When my brother and I were little boys, we were frequently sent packages of Marvel comics from Japan. We were amazed by the number of different comic characters that emerged from Marvel. These characters include Captain America, Spider Man, The...

by Grouch - Top 200, Dec 22 '00
Pros: Jackman's Wolverine carries the film with his brooding intensity
Cons: Slow build-up; a predictable plot dampens the thrills
When I was a young lad, boys my age kept a stash of comic books under the bed; I, on the other hand, had thick novels by Charles Dickens, Victor Hugo and Alexander Dumas. I’ve always been drawn more to the adventures of past-century characters than the...
