Summary: Subtitled 'Wolverine:The Prequel'
Review: As far as Wolverine movies go, X Men hit the mark. If you've ever wanted to see what Wolverine would like or act like on the big screen, see this movie,now. That being said...... Every other character in this movie serves as window dressing for Wolverine. They stand in the background, spew out exposition regarding his origins, capabilities, and personality, and then scurry off to wait until they are needed for a fight scene. Little is done to explore any of the characters personalities (except for Rogue) outside of 'how does this person feel about Wolverine'. I'm still trying to block out Halle Berry's silly wig from my mind, and the less said about the 'kewl' Ray Parks, the better...The DVD features a bunch of easter eggs (one especially funny one features Bryan Singer clad in the costume of another Marvel character set to hit the big screen), and the standard trailer/stills faire.

Summary: Ummm is everything on DVD widescreen?
Review: This is a great movie but why is every single movie that's on DVD widescreen format? How is it better to watch a movie on 1/3 the screen real estate for a fraction more video on the right and left? How about a movie that takes up my whole TV screen?

Summary: No complaints from this life-long X-Men fan!
Review: When I went to see this movie at the very first showing in the morning on the day that it came out, I was praying really hard that they wouldn't totally butcher the comic that I had grown up with my whole life, but when I saw it with my not as enthused friends, I was totally awed and amazed. My friends loved it too, its action packed, with an actual really good plot and some twists thrown in that anyone can enjoy!

Summary: X-Men Is the Best Movie of the Year
Review: Five, yes five stars and this movie deserves no less. It is the movie of the year. Everyone, young and old can enjoy "X-Men". It stars, Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, Famke Janssen, James Marsden Anna Paquin and Halle Berry. Sets in the not so distant future and in a time of great predigest, human evolution has taken the next step, or should I say quantum leap in evolution. These new breeds of people, called mutants, were born with extraordinary gifts or superpowers due to their parents' radiation exposure during the world wars. Now, the X-Men must protect the world that hates and fears them, from a band of evil mutants, known as the Brotherhood, who are tired of discrimination and believe they are the future of evolution. This movie is sure to please all. It's not at all what you may think. Director Bryan Singer makes this movie fun, but also for adults. When you think "X-Men" don't think "Superman" or "Batman and Robin". This movie stands all on it's own. You have to see it to believe it. It will surly please long time X-Men fans along with first time goers. Mild language and young adult themes give this movie a PG-13 rating, but it's still suitable for young viewers. The perfect gift this Christmas.

Summary: Mutants Strike It Big In Hollywood
Review: X-Men have built a whole new leg of special affects all on its own. The problem with the special effects was they were a bit choppy in some areas. Particularly Cyclop's blasts and Rogue's draining. The X-men are a group of assembled mutants formed by Professor Charles Xavier(Stewart). Xavier's ultimate fantasy is for humans and mutants to live side by side in peace. Xavier's former colleague, Magneto,(McKellan) has a diferent outlook on things. Magneto thinks mutants should rule over humans in turn he beleives this will insure peace. Senator Kellye is a rights activist trying to enslave or completly do away with mutants. As a test Magneto captures Kellye and turns him into a mutant using some kind of generator to produce a ionic wave of magnetism. His ulitmate goal is to transform all the world leaders into mutants just as he did to Kellye. Little does he know that this process has longterm affects which eventually kill you. How does this tie into the X-men???? Wolverine(Jackman) is a former Canadian super agent. He lives his life traveling through Canada boxing his way around. Rogue is a terrified girl because she nearly killed her boyfriend by draining his energy accidently.She flees from home and goes to Canada where she meets Wolverine.They are attacked numerous times by Magneto's thugs in an attempt to get Rogue. Magneto needs someone to power his generator because if he did the process himself he would be killed.He captures Rogue and starts to carry out his plan but of course is stopped by the X-men. Magneto's Gang consists of:Toad,Sabertooth,and Mystique The X-Men are:Cyclops(leader), Storm(co-leader), Jeane, Woleverine, and Rogue. You can count on having a sequel to this twisted adventure.

Summary: Actually better than I thought it would be
Review: As a movie, I'd say it could be better, but it could definately be worse as well. I originally saw X-men in the theater with non-comic book reading friends, and by their reaction, it apparently has some apeal for those not familiar with the book. Being familiar with the comic, I found the in-jokes and comic references more enjoyable than the actual plot. There is a mixture of really clever special effects with very-sub par special effects (in particular any time the computer generated jet is on screen is just really painful). If I were rating the movie alone, I'd probably give it a 3-3.5 but the DVD is very nicely put together so its a definate 4. The deleted scenes, trailers and other extras make it a definate contender for any extensive collection and the mastering of the sound is simply wonderful. One of the best non-DTS sound jobs I've heard in a while. I don't know that this is a movie that I'll be watching over and over again, but its certainly worth owning as a sci-fi/action collector.

Summary: Great, with some minor flaws
Review: Overall, this movie was great. It does a fine job of transferring comic-book characters into a movie with real people. The characters fitted the scenario correctly, yet some of the original X-Men were missing. Hmmm...? The movie itself is great, and intriguing with some neat special effects. I would recommend this DVD for your collection!

Summary: High Quality Action Flick
Review: X Men is a good movie, a lot of action and great special effects. I had never read an X Men comic before watching this and still could easily follow the plot. Hugh Jackman is ready to explode as a MAJOR film star and he does a fantasic job playing Wolverine here. The mutant battles are easily the best scenes, with some of the dialogue straining. I wish they just could have battled each other all movie. Still there was ample action and fantastic FX. This is a great looking film on DVD and has some really cool extras like Hugh Jackman's screen test and some cool stills. The best thing about this movie is that it lays the groundwork for many sequels to come. The next proves to be even better with Wolverine seeking out vengence on the people who mutated him. Definitely buy this if you're into good action films.

Summary: Awesome movie!
Review: I didn't expect much from this movie, but I read the X-Men comic books as a kid and thought I'd give it a try. I was very impresed by the movie, the director and producers took on the movie to be a real movie and not just for kids. All of the popular X-Men mutants are represented and they all show their unique abilities with some of the best special effects ever seen in a movie. Highly entertaining for all people of any age, A+!
