Summary: Well done!
Review: Very well done. Careful, well constructed plot. (Remember plots? Apparently, most newer movies can't afford them anymore.) Everything supports the story.

I have some quibles and this was probably done to make a few of the special effects, easier and less expensive. They loose some sense of place by showing only a pitch-black night background during the train station scene. It makes things look a little too studio sound-stage and a day or near day setting would have been better for those events. The last scene is OK at night because the water, lights, and NY setting gives a sense of place.

This is one of my favorite movies. It seems like it has been worked and re-worked, for efficiency of telling the story with as much content about characters and events as possible.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A mixed bag...but entertaining, regardless.
Review: When it comes to this movie, I'm a little torn as to what my opinion should be. On the one hand, it's a great action movie with some great casting. On the other hand, they really messed up on the casting of certain characters (read: Storm), and the storyline for others (Rogue is supposed to start out as evil!). Although I think David Hayter's script (and his other work as the voice of Solid Snake) are cool, there's really no denying that this is the same crap Hollywood always puts out. Honestly, the fight scenes were really just special effects showcases, and I really would have liked to see more character development. Hopefully, the next movie should address these issues.

What does this mean in terms of the DVD? Well, the movie doesn't hold up well because of the afore mentioned issues, so unless your money is just burning away in your bank account, try to avoid buying this movie unless the film made you absolutely ecstatic.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the best comic to films yet...
Review: that is, until Spiderman comes out this year. If you are a geek about the comic series, you may not be impressed, but if you don't expect the most, you will likely enjoy this movie. :) Check it out if only for Storm's beauty! ^_^

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent movie even if you're not X-Men fan!
Review: Very good movie, very good story development, introduction of some of the classic X-men characters; excellent visual effects.

The Cons I find in this movie are that I don't buy the idea of Magneto's machine, this movie is developed in a more "real" environmet"; and the fact that not all x-men appear here (where are Gambit and Jubilee?)

Overall is a very good movie. If you like action and sci-fi, buy it!

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Among on my list of the best of 2000.
Review: A perfect Movie for the perfect Crowd! from the director of " The Usual Suspects" presents this marvelous and wonderful adaption of the Marvel favorite " X-Men". It's about Mutants who are among us while some of them are deadly and some of them are good but the battle between good and evil starts, it's got such a flawless Casting with Halle Berry, Patrick Stewart, Anna Paquin, Ian Mckellen and Huge Jackman.

Own one of the finest Comic Book movies ever on DVD and share it with your family.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Slight variation to the comic
Review: The same as the comic book X-Men with slight variation. Great movie and well-written but a bit disappointing because it was too short.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: magnificent, and beyond
Review: I first saw this movie during the summer and it mesmerized me. The story of a young girl's (Rogue, played by Anna Paquin) discovery that anyone who touches her is hurt badly, X-Men shows her journey and fellow mutant's(Wolverine) to a place where the mutants live at, a school and where the teachers are part of a team of mutants that battle evil, the X-Men. It turns out the evil mutant wants Rogue to help him take over the human world and it will take the X-Men to save her. Will they though? You'll have to see the movie to know.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Comics come to life
Review: This picture will be much appreciated by the fans of the X-Men comic books. In the past my wife read these comics and so i knew going in a little about the charecters. However someone not familiar with the books may have a bit of trouble with the charecters. All in all a fun movie and i feel the best of the comic adaptations. The picture quality was great and there is lots of action so as long as one doesnt expect a mind excersise it should be an enjoyable movie for most.
