Customer Reviews

Looks like a pilot for a series.

This is interesting, as I have never read the X-Men. So, I did not have any preconceptions or know if any of the characters were important or known. The story is clear. You can tell the bad guys from the good guys. They do not try to mask anything and did an excellent job of telling the backstory. They picked the right actors for the parts, and the actors did not overshadow the characters they played. You must stretch your imagination a bit, but it is worth it. The only drawback was the morals of getting what you ask for in spades. Now it has been years since this movie was made, and many movies were made about individuals and different team combinations. We may even have actors replaced. But because this was after the movie, we are talking about it is irrelevant. The bottom line is it is worth watching once to say you saw it.
