A few problems in an otherwise excellent film

They've done a hell of a lot right. That's my response to Singer's X-Men films; they're slick, funny, emotive and a real blast to watch. Without overdrawn character introductions and explanations, X2 launches right into seventh gear and doesn't let up.
Admirably, the film allows the majority of its characters a genuinely engaging storyline amongst the bigger picture, and although the story ... read more

Now this is how a superhero film should be done. Almost flawlessly executed and expertly detailed. This is one of the only four superhero films deserving of being titled the king of superhero movies (the other three being Dark Knight, Spider-Man 2 & Batman Returns) and which is funny because they're all immediate sequels to their predecessors. Anyway, X2 is simply unavoidable and it's full of grea... read more

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

To put it simply, this movie delivers in spades everything the first one lacked. The script is far tighter, the stakes are much higher, and the characters really come into their own. The plot centres around a plot to exterminate all mutants, and you actually find yourself really impressed by how close it comes to succeeding. There are a couple of welcome cameos in ... read more

Better than the first film

“Not that the first film was bad, because actually I still found it good, well-made fun for all its flaws. It's just that whereas the first X-Men film did feel like the beginning of a franchise that was yet to properly find its feet, it was found with X2. X2 isn't perfect either but still a very good film that is bigger and darker than the first and all the better for it. Again X2 is very well-made, with the dark visual style still maintained yet with a slightly grander look. The photography is beautiful and atmospheric, and the special effects are better here too, they were good in the first that they're slicker, bolder and eye-popping in the way that the first film didn't quite but almost did achieve. Whilst Michael Kamen's score in the first was fine, John Ottman's score here is an impro” read more
