Movies

Though "X-Men" starts slowly, the slow buildup and great payoff proved that this film is worthy of the successful franchise it spawned.

I find X-men a good start to the x-men franchise since it brings the characters we all know in love from the comics or even the old animated TV show of x-men with people like the wolverine, jean grey or mystique, all of which we know from the comics and I get why some people say now that it doesn't really have good CGI anymore but in my opinion I honestly think that it still has good animation till this day. I give X-men 2000 10/10 stars, For its good story and how they put such good casting in this movie.

My son brought me into the foray of comic book movies. I had low expectations. This one is quite expository, bringing us into contact with the principles of the X-men. We are introduced to Wolverine and the lot. The plot involves all of the planning, government meddling, and super-villains with whom I am not familiar. One thing that impressed me is the quality of the acting and the big time performers that contributed to this. It does leave unanswered questions, but I would assume there are answers galore as the blockbusters of the day seem to be about 90 percent directed to fanboys. I really enjoyed this, but am still a bit bewildered by who these guys are.
