So I did not have any preconception or know if any of the charters are important or known. <br />The story is clear. You can tell the bad guys from the good. They do not try to mask anything and did an excellent job of telling the back-story. They picked the right actors for the parts and the actors did not over shadow the characters they played. You have to stretch your imagination a bit but it is worth it. The only drawback was the morals of you get what you ask for in spades. <br /> <br />Bottom line is it is worth watching once to say you saw it. <br /> Rating: 2 / 5 This is interesting, as I never read the X-Men.

Nardi Fri, 13 Aug 2010 20:57:32 +0000 http://www.atatheatrenearyou.org/x-men/#comment-11468 I was never a fan of the X-Men comic books, but X-Men is probably the best action hero/comic book movie out there. Unlike many other such movies, such as Fantastic Four [Blu-ray], which are simply an excuse to have a bunch of action scenes and special effects, X-Men actually has a well-developed plot, good acting, as well as impressive special effects. Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan as the two main mutants make the movie, are fantastic add emotional depth, but X-Men also includes a strong supporting cast, including Hugh Jackman and Hallie Berri. Overall, I was very pleasantly surprised by X-Men. Definitely worth checking out, even if you're not usually into this type of movie.

I thought after watching this movie that they wouldn't let Wolverine cut loose (pun intended) <br /> <br />This was an ok opener for the series. not the GREATEST, but they took the time to introduce all the major players. <br /> <br />Watch this movie, it has a LOT to do with the second movie.

I used to watch the cartoon after school when i was in high school and my mom babysat a bunch of kids. i never read any of the comic books (i know, bad for me) but i loved the cartoon enough to be excited when they anounced a live action movie. <br /> <br />I have heard from MANY friends that the movie doesn't hold up to the history of the franchise, but i still love it, and the three that followed. <br /> <br />GREAT MOVIE Rating: 5 / 5 I will admit that i came into the X-Men franchise vary late.
