I thought this was all in all a good movie. The Good: Hugh Jackmen as Woleverine, good job in choosing a nobody, Patrick Stwert as Xavier,and also Sir Ian and Magneto, the special effects were great and the fact that if you know the comics, they show alot of characters from the comics as kind of cameos and/or minor parts. The Bad: Using Rogue as the Jubilee story,James Marsden as Cyclops, they needed to get someone older,no Beast, he is one of the original X-men, he's also the smartest second to Xavier, also no Gambit, a fan favorite. Also there weren't enough action scenes, this made the films pace a little slow. If your a follower of the comics then there are disappointing parts but from a movie stand point its was a good movie and a joy to watch.
If you're a comic following fan.. this movie will come as a disappointment. But aye.. if you already know the ending what's the point in watching right? So.. we get another side of a story. Like any movie that was original a book (ok comic book) This is Hollywoods version. Must of been on a budget because key folks are missing in this tale, but if you haven't followed Xmen and are new to the tale..well this movie is overall.. a good start. Opens doors to a great Trilogy and a new tale to follow. End the end.. it tells a new version as to the mystery of why Rogue has grey highlights.. and all this time I thought it was stress.
This is the first one x-men movie! One of the best! Very happy with this purchase
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
This is a great adaptation for a comic book film. Great actors such as Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Patrick Stuart as Prof. X. Great storyline and great visuals as well. Buy if your an X-men or comic book fan.
This was a nice beginning to the X-franchise of films, including the awesome Wolverine film. There wasn't much action in this first film, but Director Bryan Singer made up for it with a great story.
