• X-Men [2000]

  Oscar David Huckle 14 July 2007

  

  I am not into mutant or team gangsters, but this was the first comic hero film I actually liked. Directed by Bryan Singer and starring Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen and Halle Berry.
  
  A nice, decent 104 minute movie and nice fight scenes was marvellous. The acting was okay, however it could have been a lot better.
  
  My best bit was when Magneto (Ian McKellen) had trapped Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), Storm (Halle Berry) , Cyclops (James Marsden)and Jean (Famke Janssen) on Liberty Island.
  
  7/10

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 or region free DVD player in order to play Born into a world filled with prejudice are children who possess extraordinary and dangerous powers the result of unique genetic mutations Cyclops unleashes bolts of energy from his eyes Storm can manipulate the weather at will Rogue absorbs the life force of anyone she touches But under the tutelage of Professor Xavier (Patrick Stewart) these and other outcasts learn to harness their powers for the good of mankind Now they must protect those who fear them as the nefarious Magneto (Ian McKellen) who believes humans and mutants can never co-exist unveils his sinister plan for the future

Bryan Singer directs and co-writes this big screen adaptation of the long-running Marvel comic strip. Mutants Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart) and Magneto (Ian McKellen) are former friends, but look set to become mortal enemies when fascistic US senator Robert Frank Kelly (Bruce Davison) calls for the registration of all humans with abnormal powers. While telepath Xavier, who runs an altruistic academy for superhumans, wishes to enlighten non-mutants and break down the prejudices which divide them, Magneto believes that the only solution is for the mutants to take over. Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), an aggressive loner with an adamantium skeleton and the ability to heal his body of any wound, and teenager Rogue (Anna Paquin), who can absorb the life force of others simply by touching them, are selected by Xavier to join his academy, but it isn't long before Magneto's followers are attempting to capture them so that they can assist in his plan for world domination.
