minerex-91500 Everything about this film is done perfectly. Hugh Jackman surprisingly is great as Wolverine, despite this being his "odd one out" performance, and Patrick Stewart is especially memorable as Proffesor X. I also liked the casting decisions of James Marsden as Cyclops and Halle Berry as Storm, but I wasn't a huge fan of how their characters were somewhat underdeveloped.So basically, the plot revolves around Magneto (Sir Ian McKellen) trying to hunt down Wolverine for some unknown reason, even though SPOILER ALERT: He actually wants Rogue. The biggest problem I have with the plot is that it doesn't make sense to me why Magneto wants Rogue because all she can do is make someone have a heart attack, meanwhile Wolverine has a full skeleton made of adamantium.Surprisingly, this movie holds up in a dated sort of way because it's an all around 1990s/2000s movie. It's theme still holds true today and I felt that it was presented in the best way possible. Not to mention that
invisibleunicornninja This is a decent movie. There are a few too many errors for me to fully enjoy it without yelling at the screen, but overall I enjoyed it. The characters are interesting. Its shot well. The plot is coherent and fun. Not the greatest movie, but entertaining.
juneb-38007 How can anyone watch this guy's movies. .....he is an accused pedophile..watch this documentary and see..it's a shame what these high payed directors do and no one confronts them. Finally Carey Feldman is speaking the truth, and so are other children actors. These kids are damaged for life. This needs to be brought to the forefront.Watch "Documentary -'An Open Secret:'   Hollywood Pedophiles" on YouTube https://youtu.be/IoRkFTYtbuU
Owen Ogletree This in addition to being the start of the "X-Men" franchise was also the first superhero film of the 2000s as well as the first major adaption of a Marvel comic. This was a pretty solid movie with plenty going for it, even if there was better to come.Of course, one of the best things about this franchise is Hugh Jackman's portrayal of Logan/Wolverine. He is a tough joker and someone you don't wanna mess with and also very interesting to watch. He was made for the role just like how Christopher Reeve was made for Superman and Robert Downey Jr. was made for Iron Man.Many of the supporting characters are also interesting. Patrick Stewart is great as Professor Charles Xavier and Ian McKellen makes for a great villain in Magneto. Mystique, Storm, Cyclops, and Sabertooth also compliment the film nicely.The film has a solid enough story and some pretty exciting action sequences. I also liked the music score.However, one issue is that a lot of the supporting characters, while cool, weren't developed quite enough. One character I didn't care for was Anna Paquin's Rogue, who was a bit whiny.There isn't really anything to make the film anything more than solid. It really kind of felt like they were holding back some with this film. It isn't surprising that director Bryan Singer considers this to be the "prologue" to the "X-Men" series.It's still a good, solid movie that laid the groundwork for the "X-Men" movies. There would be better superhero films to come, but this is still worth watching.RATING: B
