Pros: great story Cons: not the resolution I wanted to the Jean Gray, Cyclops, Wolverine triangle
Bryan Singer, the director of X-Men and X2: X-Men United, read X-Men comic books growing up. He loved them and took to heart many of the ideas proposed there. That's important because it means that he has a vision when creating the X-Men...
Pros: Tense, intelligent, great acting, special FX, it has everything Cons: None
X-Men 2: X-Men United X-Men left off with Magneto (played with typical panache by Ian MCKellen) imprisoned in a plastic cell where he could not use his powers, Wolverine was on a quest to find out who he really was, and humanity in general was ...

The gist of it-----
The movie opens with the "president" under siege by a strange teleporting blue mutant.
(One of the nicest scenes of the movie!)
The president then moves to make laws against all mutants.
...
Pros: acting, effects and a whole lot more. Cons: Halle Berry
When the first X-Men film was released in cinemas I loved it, and yet by the same token I was disappointed. I was one of those people you hear about that used to read the X-Men comics, and while i was not as avid a reader as some of the bigger ...
Pros: Acting, direction, effects and script are all stronger this time around. New characters, great stuff! Cons: More violent than the first--but it's more EVERYTHING than the first!
There are very few sequels that surpass the original. "The Empire Strikes Back" is one. "X2," aka "X-Men United" is another. I had high hopes for this movie, and I've been looking forward to it basically since the closing credits of the first movie...
Pros: Killer effects, great acting, true to the comic book's roots. Cons: It leaves me wanting more, and I can't wait for X3.
I loved the original X-Men movie (circa 2000), not just because it was a good movie, but because it took a franchise I'd loved since I was a kid and treated it with dignity and respect. Underneath the effects and the powers and the costumes was a...
Pros: exciting and intriguing, very well done, many new characters, an improvement on first film Cons: none
With the success of the first X-Men film in 2000, it went without saying that there was going to be a sequel. 2003 saw the release of X2: X-Men United, a film following the continuing adventures of the infamous mutant super-heroes. Director ...
Pros: Action, adventure and social relavance. Nightcrawler. Cons: A bit cluttered with characters.
X2: X-Men United (2003) Directed by Brian Singer.I am going to start with the cast on this one, because you can't tell the players without a score card....Patrick Stewart ... Professor Charles Xavier/ ...
Pros: Great plot; action-filled; Bad*ss special effects Cons: The ending left me hanging~how long do I have to wait for X3?
X2: X-Men United is beyond great. I was anxiously awaiting the sequel to the first of the series of X-Men movies, and went to go see it on opening night. I had to buy the tickets 4 hours early because apparently a lot of other people were just as...
Pros: great action, good acting, good plot, fun characters Cons: none that i can think of
I just saw this movie in the theatres last night with my mom and we were both dazzled. I own the first X-men and I lent it to my mom. After that, she had to see "X-Men 2."
In this adventure, a man named William Stryker invades Xavier's...
Pros: X2 is a fun film interested in its characters every bit as its special effects. Cons: In some parts X2 goes on a little long even with action thrown in.
Pros: It's wicked cool. Cons: You might be looking for more than 'wicked cool', but I can't imagine why.
The movie ‘Unbreakable’ (love it or hate it) has as one of its positives the fact that it’s a good jumping off point for comic-book movie discussion. It’s a comic-book movie that pretends not to be (I hope I haven’t...
Pros: Amazing cast, cleverly subversive screenplay, direction Cons: Lots of storyline threads, romance angle a bit weak
Since I was about 7 years old, my family (and, by extension, me) made a habit of hitting the first big Blockbuster Film of the summer. As I grew older, my parents went to films less at the theatre, and my brother and I went. Now by myself in Reno, I...
